Track Insight / Lyrics

I sink deep in oil and grit Where the rusted junctions knit Like a root in heavy clay Watching all the trains drift away I am the anchor in the haze Catching silver in a glaze Holding fast to frozen ground Where the heavy steel is bound Fog arrives like white jasmine Covering the copper skin I hold a steady, patient line While the railway sleepers pine I am the anchor in the haze Catching silver in a glaze Holding fast to frozen ground Where the heavy steel is bound Salt and sulfur scent the air Iron scales and winter glare I am rooted, cold and still Bending to the engine's will I am the anchor in the haze Catching silver in a glaze Holding fast to frozen ground Where the heavy steel is bound Oxide blooms in burnt sienna Slower than a wild antenna Patience is a botanist's art Keeping every rail apart A sudden spark of golden white Slicing through the velvet night I reflect a single beam Waking from a metal dream Now the morning mist recedes Cutting through the iron weeds I remain a heavy weight Guarding every garden gate I am the anchor in the haze Catching silver in a glaze Holding fast to frozen ground Where the heavy steel is bound Silver light on iron grey Still I stay, still I stay
