Track Insight / Lyrics
Ferry wake rocks sandstone ledge
Opera sails catch last gold
My lens drinks the fading edge
Stories left here untold
[Pre-
Wind steals heat from wool beanie
Light sweeps slow across the rail
Watchman nods, he's seen me
Knows I'm not gonna bail
Harbor watch flash holds me steady
Beam cuts wind like knife through feather
Click shutters catch what hands unready
Salt and steel stick tight together
Bridge rivets glow in violet haze
Luna Park grins crooked teeth
I frame the gloom in purple maze
No ticket stub for underneath
[Pre-
Wind steals heat from wool beanie
Light sweeps slow across the rail
Watchman nods, he's seen me
Knows I'm not gonna bail
Harbor watch flash holds me steady
Beam cuts wind like knife through feather
Click shutters catch what hands unready
Salt and steel stick tight together
Stolen sandwich wrapped in paper
Crumbs feed gulls on iron post
Watchman offers half a vapor
Laughs at whoever matters most
Sydney doesn't ask permission
Just serves up dusk on salty plates
I pocket light, ignore the condition
Develop negatives in unknown fates
Harbor watch flash holds me steady
Beam cuts wind like knife through feather
Click shutters catch what hands unready
Salt and steel stick tight together
Last bus growls up George Street hill
I board with salt in every pocket
Watchman's beam follows me still
Harbor earned, not merelyocket
Harbor watch flash holds me steady
Beam cuts wind like knife through feather
Click shutters catch what hands unready
Salt and steel stick tight together
Yeah, salt and steel stick tight together
Shutter clicks, wind forgets
Harbor watch, no regrets
