Track Insight / Lyrics
In the depths of night's dark shroud
Where the rails stretch and the shadows crowd
I hear the rhythm, the heartbeat sound
A cadence only I can find around
The fog swirls, a damp grey mist
Crawling through the rail yard's list
A city asleep in its shell
Leaving me solitary, lingering well
Maybe someday, a phantom train
Will stop on the platform, and I'll regain
Connection to the world outside
Where people's pulse beats, and hearts abide
Oh, the fogbound heartbeat calls to me
A lonesome siren, tantalizing and free
In this forgotten place I roam
Seeking answers, a reason to go home
Copper signals etch the night's cold skin
Tendrils of steam, a ghostly waltz within
The yard's machinery, a heavy sigh
As I walk these tracks, wondering why
Maybe someday, a phantom train
Will stop on the platform, and I'll regain
Connection to the world outside
Where people's pulse beats, and hearts abide
Oh, the fogbound heartbeat calls to me
A lonesome siren, tantalizing and free
In this forgotten place I roam
Seeking answers, a reason to go home
In the stillness, I hear it clear
A hidden melody, drawing near
The fogbound heartbeat, my solitary guide
Through the smoky veil, it leads me inside
Oh, the fogbound heartbeat calls to me
A lonesome siren, tantalizing and free
In this forgotten place I roam
Seeking answers, a reason to go home
Oh, the fogbound heartbeat calls to me
A lonesome siren, guiding me free
Through the smoky veil, it rushes me home
To the world awakened, my heart made whole
In the dawn's first pale, shining light
The rails recede, the fog dissolves in flight
As I step from my solitary walk
The phantom heartbeat's final, fading talk
