Track Insight / Lyrics
Sealed in metal, I ride alone
Ancient strings tremble, violin's moan
Desert sun long set beneath the grade
A fortnight past the cross, I'll reach my shade
Neon signs recede like ghostly flames
As night's dark curtain draws the highway's names
In echoing silence, in the light of phones
Memories of home, a distant, fading tone
But in this age of metal song and steel
My heart remains a vessel for the melodies I feel
The scrape of strings, the hum of wheels
Through the din of progress, a nostalgic zeal
In the cold light of a thousand cities passed
Each note a secret, a story to amass
The worn wood beneath my chin pressed tight
Carrying the weight of memories, a traveler's plight
Neon signs recede like ghostly flames
As night's dark curtain draws the highway's names
In echoing silence, in the light of phones
Memories of home, a distant, fading tone
But in this age of metal song and steam
My heart remains a vessel for the melodies I dream
The scrape of strings, the hum of wheels
Through the din of progress, a nostalgic zeal
Chaos reigns as guitars collide
Crashing cymbals, the rhythm hides
The violin's haunting melody screams through chaos
Seventeen seconds of metal fury
Guitars rebelling, violin's tears
Though steel and fire encase my soul
Through melodies, I'll never lose control
The scrape of strings, the hum of steel
Alone, yet not lost, upon this highway's keel
In morning's glow, I'll roll into town
Strings weary, violin's tale unwound
Of the distant summers, the fading light
A traveler's song, ringing through the night.
