Track Insight / Lyrics
Dust motes dance in fading light,
A silent watch throughout the night.
Old stones whisper, cold and gray,
Another twilight slips away.
Cracked asphalt, a gravel bed,
Where lonely tires softly tread.
He stands and waits, a weathered face,
Lost in this forgotten place.
Headlights cut the gathering gloom,
A distant engine, sealing doom.
Or promise held, a fragile plea,
Reflected back for him to see.
Gravel and gold, a fleeting sign,
Of journeys lost and futures entwined.
He watches on, a steady hand,
Guardian of this lonely land.
The salt spray clings to rusty steel,
A silent story it reveals.
Of nets cast wide and hopes held dear,
And waves that crash and disappear.
Headlights cut the gathering gloom,
A distant engine, sealing doom.
Or promise held, a fragile plea,
Reflected back for him to see.
Gravel and gold, a fleeting sign,
Of journeys lost and futures entwined.
He watches on, a steady hand,
Guardian of this lonely land.
The porch light flickers, weak and low,
A tiny beacon in the flow.
Of passing shadows, swift and free,
A solitary memory.
The driveway stretches, long and deep,
Secrets that the old stones keep.
A silent vigil, year on year,
Washing away all doubt and fear.
Gravel and gold, a fleeting sign,
Of journeys lost and futures entwined.
He watches on, a steady hand,
Guardian of this lonely land.
Each passing car, a whispered name,
A flicker of a forgotten flame.
He scans the road with patient eyes,
Beneath these vast and endless skies.
Gravel and gold, a fleeting sign,
Of journeys lost and futures entwined.
He watches on, a steady hand,
Guardian of this lonely land.
Dust motes fall, the darkness grows,
The gravel driveway softly glows.
A silent keeper, strong and true,
Watching over me and you.
