Track Insight / Lyrics
Steel bones rising, cold and tall,
Watching shadows softly fall.
A silver promise, etched in air,
St. Louis dreaming, beyond compare.
I stand in silence, a granite grace,
A metal echo in this bustling place.
The Mississippi murmurs low and deep,
While city secrets I faithfully keep.
Golden meridian, a fiery kiss,
Sun bleeds westward, pure bliss.
Reflecting heaven in my curving form,
A gilded gateway, weathering the storm.
Each passing hour, a shifting hue,
From dusty rose to ocean blue.
The river barges drift and glide,
Beneath my gaze, with patient pride.
Golden meridian, a fiery kiss,
Sun bleeds westward, pure bliss.
Reflecting heaven in my curving form,
A gilded gateway, weathering the storm.
I've seen the seasons come and go,
Felt winter's chill and summer's glow.
The laughter echoes, light and free,
A timeless story unfolding for me.
They say I'm progress, a symbol bright,
But I remember a different light.
The open prairie, wild and wide,
Before the city swelled with pride.
The air grows colder, the day is done,
Another sunset, beautifully spun.
The lights ignite, a sparkling chain,
Washing over the window pane.
Golden meridian, a fiery kiss,
Sun bleeds westward, pure bliss.
Reflecting heaven in my curving form,
A gilded gateway, weathering the storm.
I hold the memory, strong and true,
Of golden moments, fresh and new.
A silent witness, steadfast and bold,
A story in steel, forever told.
Golden meridian, a fiery kiss,
Sun bleeds westward, pure bliss.
Reflecting heaven in my curving form,
A gilded gateway, weathering the storm.
The river flows, a silver thread,
As twilight whispers overhead.
I stand unwavering, night and day,
And watch the world drift far away.
