Track Insight / Lyrics
Engine ticks while meter sleeps
Rain writes code on windshield glass
Quarter dropped in neon deep
Lead lines hold the colored mass
Fare ran out on Thirty-Third
Left a scarf and silence there
Flux and copper, wire and bird
Sainted dust in copper hair
Glass and wire, glass and wire
Night shift bleeds to morning fire
Taxi idles, engine cold
Arcade plays a song of gold
Prophet pads through concrete veins
Twelve-string rings in dashboard light
Copper foil and solder stains
Fingers bleed for saints tonight
Glass and wire, glass and wire
Night shift bleeds to morning fire
Taxi idles, engine cold
Arcade plays a song of gold
I've driven thirty years of streets
Know each pothole, curb, and crack
But this glow beneath my seats
Draws me forward, pulls me back
Lead came bends to holy shape
Flux sings sharp on heated tip
No fare asked, no escape
Just the work and nothing skip
Dawn breaks gray on avenue
Panel glows in blue and red
Meter clicks, the shift is through
Glass and wire, daily bread
Glass and wire, glass and wire
Night shift bleeds to morning fire
Taxi idles, engine cold
Arcade plays a song of gold
Glass and wire, glass and wire
Holy light on retail tire
Meter resets, the day begins
Glass and wire, glass and wire
