Track Insight / Lyrics
In the gloom, the barn owl perches high
Echoes of life beneath the on-rush
Tires screech, a horn blares, it's deafening roar
But the owl stays still, unflinching core
In shadowed alcoves, it makes its lair
A sentinel of darkness, haunting air
Unseen, unheard, yet ever aware
Of the world's chaos, the city's glare
Where the highway roars, where ghosts collide
The owl remains, a steadfast hide
In rusted steel and stone, it takes its stand
Against the tempest, unbroken hand
Rust and grit, the overpass crawls
A bridge to nowhere, shattered walls
Yet in the cracks, the owl finds an abode
A fortress strong, where it resorts to noise
In shadowed alcoves, it makes its lair
A sentinel of darkness, haunting air
Unseen, unheard, yet ever aware
Of the world's chaos, the city's glare
Where the highway roars, where ghosts collide
The owl remains, a steadfast hide
In rusted steel and stone, it takes its stand
Against the tempest, unbroken hand
Aggressive synths chime, guitars wail
A sonic storm rages, as the owl unfurls
Fretboard blazing, a fury unleashed
The owl's unyielding spirit, forever released
Where the highway roars, where ghosts collide
The owl remains, a steadfast hide
In rusted steel and stone, it takes its stand
Against the tempest, unbroken hand
The storm subsides, the night grows still
The owl's vigil ends, the dawn's chill
But in the shadows, it will persist
An unbroken spirit, forever the ghost under the flyover.
