Track Insight / Lyrics
Footsteps ghost through morning fog
Rail yard restless, steel sinew strong
High-wire walker, blindness of the night
Leaving neon puddles, all awake with light
Through shifting shadows, he walks alone
Harness heavy, every limb made gold
Foghorns moan in the salt-mist air
High-wire heartbeat pumps, no room to spare
Rhythm in his blood, the city's hum
Twenty stories up, his solitary drum
Each step a prayer to gravity's hold
Invisible threads, his story unfold
Fogbound pulse, the city's electric spine
High-wire heart, a rhythm all divine
Fogbound pulse, a lonely, shining cord
Connecting two worlds, where the darkness is adored
From Con Edison's towers, to Brooklyn's roof
Electric whispers in the urban proof
Subway tunnels hum in ancient veins
An underground heart that his own sustains
Rhythm in his blood, the city's hum
Twenty stories up, his solitary drum
Each step a prayer to gravity's hold
Invisible threads, his story unfold
Fogbound pulse, the city's electric spine
High-wire heart, a rhythm all divine
Fogbound pulse, a lonely, shining cord
Connecting two worlds, where the darkness is adored
In crowded skyscrapers, he's a ghost unseen
A phantom presence, where concrete screams
But in the fog, his path is made clear
Guided by the city's magnetic fear
Fogbound pulse, the city's electric spine
High-wire heart, a rhythm all divine
Fogbound pulse, a lonely, shining cord
Connecting two worlds, where the darkness is adored
Fogbound pulse, fading fast
High-wire heart, a lonely past
Electric threads, now lost and torn
Two worlds apart, where dawn is born
