Track Insight / Lyrics
Ladder rungs, breathless hum, night's alive
Grappling hooks, chimney climb, fear's inside
Guttered rain, peeling paint, heart keeps time
Wires sway, laughter's chill, life's a tightrope line
Distant train rolls by, fleeting sigh
Heights a mystery, just a thin sky
High-wire work, balanced art, nervous stride
Life on a wire, lonesome ride
Gritty wire, my thin salvation
To defy the fall, my nocturnal devotion
High above the street, my world's in motion
Gritty wire, my lonesome editation
Cold breeze whispers secrets, tales untold
Windmill creaks, ancient song, stories unfold
Train whistles fade, darkness reigns, city's cold
Wisps of smoke, engine's roar, night's domain
Moon casts shadows long, night's in full swing
Heart beats fast, stakes so high, life's a high-wire thing
Gas lamps flicker bright, guiding my way
High above the fray, I dance through the night
Gritty wire, my thin salvation
To defy the fall, my nocturnal devotion
High above the street, my world's in motion
Gritty wire, my lonesome editation
Raindrops pelt the steel, rhythmic beat
A lone drifter's song, melodic repeat
City's slumbering soul, though darkness hides
Flickers of life remain, secrets abide
Pinned to a pole, vulnerable high
Price of progress, the cost of the sky
Feet planted firm, bracing the sway
Heart in my throat, I sing of the day
Gritty wire, my thin salvation
To defy the fall, my nocturnal devotion
High above the street, my world's in motion
Gritty wire, my lonesome editation
Shadows twist, neon lights, depot walls
Fade to dawn's first light, the lonely call
