Track Insight / Lyrics
Dust motes dance in fading light,
Steel bones hum a lonely night.
Rails reflect a silver tear,
Whispering echoes drawing near.
Viaduct sighs, a rusted frame,
Holding stories, whispering a name.
Each girder groans with ancient strain,
A metal backbone, kissed by rain.
Last train rattles, a fiery streak,
Across the valley, shadows speak.
Wheels on iron, a rhythmic plea,
Carrying secrets, just for me.
Iron bloom, beneath the grey,
A fleeting moment slips away.
Steel and steam, a fragile grace,
Lost in time and empty space.
Wild clematis, a purple vine,
Clings to metal, intertwine.
Rooted firmly, holding fast,
Whispers of futures, built to last.
The engine breathes a mournful sound,
As twilight settles all around.
Each passing car, a distant chime,
Marking the passage of lost time.
Iron bloom, beneath the grey,
A fleeting moment slips away.
Steel and steam, a fragile grace,
Lost in time and empty space.
*Salix babylonica*, weeping low,
Watches the embers softly glow.
A silent witness, calm and deep,
To promises the shadows keep.
The final whistle, a fading call,
Leaving silence to cover all.
A ghostly rhythm, soft and slow,
Where iron blossoms start to grow.
Iron bloom, beneath the grey,
A fleeting moment slips away.
Steel and steam, a fragile grace,
Lost in time and empty space.
Rails now quiet, cold and bare,
A memory lingers in the air.
Iron bloom fades into the night,
A silver answer, dim and bright.
