Track Insight / Lyrics
Mist clings to cable steel
My boots know every heel
Film grain catches green glow
Counter ticks, steady and slow
Shutter snaps the white wall
No voices left to call
Just me and the beam
Cutting through the stream
I'm the bridge keeper now
Salt rust on my brow
Light sweeps the dead zone
This watch is my own
I'm the bridge keeper now
Radium dust on my sleeve
No one left to believe
Pripyat sleeps past the span
I count clicks best I can
Shutter snaps the white wall
No voices left to call
Just me and the beam
Cutting through the stream
I'm the bridge keeper now
Salt rust on my brow
Light sweeps the dead zone
This watch is my own
I'm the bridge keeper now
Twelve-string hums in my pack
Sound travels, won't come back
Harmony floats on the wind
Last song this zone has pinned
Night falls, the counter screams
But the light holds its seams
Each flash a photo frame
Burning through the name
I'm the bridge keeper now
Salt rust on my brow
Light sweeps the dead zone
This watch is my own
I'm the bridge keeper now
Dawn breaks on concrete bone
I'm not lost, I'm not alone
Frames developed in my hand
Keeper of this quiet land
I'm the bridge keeper now
Salt rust on my brow
Light sweeps the dead zone
This watch is my own
I'm the bridge keeper now
Yeah, I'm the bridge keeper now
Click. Flash. Hold.
Bridge keeper stands.
