Track Insight / Lyrics
You sweep the lens with calloused hand
Salt wind bites the rocky land
Twilight paints the drive in gold
Stories etched in stone and cold
Meter ticks, the city sleeps
Keeper watches, keeper keeps
Light stretches far on crushed white stone
You're never truly far from home
Gravel glows beneath the sweep
Promises the night will keep
Turn the key, the engine hums
Darkness breaks, the morning comes
Rain traces paths on lantern glass
Each drop a fare, each flash a pass
You count the beams like midnight fares
Salt in the air, salt in your prayers
Meter ticks, the city sleeps
Keeper watches, keeper keeps
Light stretches far on crushed white stone
You're never truly far from home
Gravel glows beneath the sweep
Promises the night will keep
Turn the key, the engine hums
Darkness breaks, the morning comes
Fog rolls in like unpaid dues
Horn blasts low, the harbor blues
But your beam cuts through the grey
Guiding lost ones on their way
No meter here, no flag to pull
Just the sweep, the dark, the full
Heart beats steady, hand stays true
Light returns to me and you
Gravel glows beneath the sweep
Promises the night will keep
Turn the key, the engine hums
Darkness breaks, the morning comes
Dawn cracks open, shift ends slow
Gravel glows in morning's glow
You lock the door, climb down the stair
City wakes, you're already there
Gravel glows beneath the sweep
Promises the night will keep
Turn the key, the engine hums
Darkness breaks, the morning comes
Beam fades out, the drive stays bright
Taxi rolls into the light
