Track Insight / Lyrics

You wipe the counter down with a rag stained brown The grill goes cold as sun slips out of town A calico ghost climbs the iron ladder rungs Her paws find purchase where the rust has sprung Coffee steam curls past the wire mesh screen You know the regulars and the spaces between She pauses on the landing where the paint peels back One green eye watches from the shadow stack Fire escape calico summer dusk queen You watch her move through the spaces unseen Iron ribs humming with the day's last heat Two quiet strangers on the same dead street The fryer clicks off oil settles deep You got a half hour fore the night shift wakes She flicks her tail where the fire escape keeps The secrets that the daytime never makes Fire escape calico summer dusk queen You watch her move through the spaces unseen Iron ribs humming with the day's last heat Two quiet strangers on the same dead street Moths hit the bulb above the back door light You pour a saucer set it on the landing She drinks slow amber in the fading white No words needed just the understanding The bell dings sharp a ticket flaps once more But you stay put where the cool air slips through She blinks slow like she knew the score A moment borrowed from the grinding crew Apron comes off keys jingle in your hand She follows down to the alley's cracked mouth The city exhales summer night expands Two silhouettes heading vaguely south Fire escape calico summer dusk queen You watch her move through the spaces unseen Iron ribs humming with the day's last heat Two quiet strangers on the same dead street Fire escape calico summer dusk queen She purrs low a tiny engine sound You both disappear when the sun goes down
