Track Insight / Lyrics
Gramophone winds up, then stills
Dust motes swirl in faltering will
Phantom melodies, ghostly calls
Haunted by the songs that once enthralled
Tension builds, strings stretch tight
Chords crash, hunger takes flight
Longing for the comfort sound
That once soothed this lonesome ground
Humming heart, in rhythm kept
Neon shadows, where secrets slept
In this hollow, hollowed air
The phantom groove still plays there
Rain-lashed windows reflect
A city's steel and hungry detect
Melodies echo, whisper low
Reminding of love that's long ago
Deep notes thrum, the rhythm sways
A lonely summon from distant days
When love and music filled the air
And dreams seemed far from lost or bare
Humming heart, in rhythm kept
Neon shadows, where secrets slept
In this hollow, hollowed air
The phantom groove still plays there
Pounding drums, a maelstrom rise
Guitars scream, a cathartic sigh
Chains shatter, demons flee
Emancipation calls to me
Frenzied picking, frantic runs
Fractured scales and seemingly undone
Screeching notes, a release
As the darkness finally cease
Humming heart, in rhythm kept
Neon shadows, where secrets slept
In this hollow, hollowed air
The phantom groove still plays there
As the song concludes, the hum subsides
Dust settles, neon fades from lines
The gramophone's warm glow extinguished cold
Leaving echoes of a love grown old
