Track Insight / Lyrics

Salt crusts my hinge joints every dawn First ferry cuts the grey withdrawn Coins stack in copper towers tall Receipts flutter on the wall I rise and fall in three-beat time Each crossing writes a tiny line No passenger knows my name But I remember every claim Hydraulic blood runs thick and slow Winter makes the metal groan A child drops a plastic token I catch it where the light is broken I rise and fall in three-beat time Each crossing writes a tiny line No passenger knows my name But I remember every claim Gulls cry above the vacant deck No boots sound on the steel grate Timetable holds though ships run late I lift for those who cannot wait I rise and fall in three-beat time Each crossing writes a tiny line No passenger knows my name But I remember every claim Modular pulse beneath my skin Synth heart beats where the rust begins Three-four time on wooden bone I stand until the last is gone Peeling paint shows every year Each layer drinks the ferry's wake Summer crowds all disappear I stand for keeper's sake I rise and fall in three-beat time Each crossing writes a tiny line No passenger knows my name But I remember every claim Up down up the dawn keeps climbing Steel breath at first light Counting each crossing
