Summer air is thick and gold
Story of the night untold
Walking past the brick and lime
Counting down the ticking time
Flashlight hitting iron rails
White light cutting through the veils
Silver sparks in purple haze
Lost inside a metal maze
Heavy boots on salted ground
Looking for a hidden sound
Salty wind against my skin
Letting all the summer in
Flashlight hitting iron rails
White light cutting through the veils
Silver sparks in purple haze
Lost inside a metal maze
You were leaning on the wall
Waiting for the dark to fall
Two quiet ghosts in the heat
Walking down a dead-end street
Flashlight hitting iron rails
White light cutting through the veils
Silver sparks in purple haze
Lost inside a metal maze
Copper rust and peeling paint
Scent of summer growing faint
Beam of light on cold gray steel
Making every moment real
No more lamps to keep the shore
I don't need the watch no more
Just a glance and just a sign
Crossing over one thin line
Lamps are out and oil is dry
Underneath a velvet sky
Iron stairs lead to the top
Where the heavy rhythms stop
Flashlight hitting iron rails
White light cutting through the veils
Silver sparks in purple haze
Lost inside a metal maze
Iron and glass Iron and glass
Silver sparks
Silver sparks
