Track Insight / Lyrics
My cab sits cold on frozen ground
The bow rests quiet on the bridge
No engine turns, no sudden sound
No hand to draw across the ridge
[Pre-
Counter clicks like clockwork teeth
Counting out the half-life breath
A song that outlives the death
Geiger lullaby, low and slow
Violin guards the misty flow
Wood remembers what we know
Music where the wild winds blow
Pripyat sleeps beneath the pine
Strings vibrate on the copper wire
No meter runs on borrowed time
The bridge holds notes like freezing fire
[Pre-
Counter clicks like clockwork teeth
Counting out the half-life breath
A song that outlives the death
Geiger lullaby, low and slow
Violin guards the misty flow
Wood remembers what we know
Music where the wild winds blow
I drove these roads when lights were bright
Now radiation hums the tune
My hands still grip the wheel at night
Beneath the pale and patient moon
The case is cracked, the varnish worn
But every note cuts through the gray
A taxi driver, tired, torn
Still stops to hear the old wood play
Geiger lullaby, low and slow
Violin guards the misty flow
Wood remembers what we know
Music where the wild winds blow
Fare's paid in silence, paid in dust
No meter runs on rusted trust
The bow lifts slow, the song breaks through
The zone lets music bloom anew
Geiger lullaby, low and slow
Violin guards the misty flow
Wood remembers what we know
Music where the wild winds blow
Click and hum the night away
Old wood sings for those who stay
