Track Insight / Lyrics

Salt crust thick on window glass First voice knows the seasons pass Pumpkin ribs carved deep and clean Second voice tends wick and flame Brine-soaked timber groans below Both voices watch the ember glow [Pre- Rain runs down the weathered planks No sirens cry from distant banks Just this light and nothing more Burning on the wooden floor Jack-o'-lantern holds the night Salt and smoke and candlelight Lantern logic, keeper's creed Guides the lost and feeds the need Jack-o'-lantern holds the line Salt and smoke and Halloween First voice trimmed the wick at dawn Second voice has watched it burn Crab shells litter porch steps now Gull cries stitch the dark to morn Flame leans hard but does not break Keeper's hands know what's at stake [Pre- Rain runs down the weathered planks No sirens cry from distant banks Just this light and nothing more Burning on the wooden floor Jack-o'-lantern holds the night Salt and smoke and candlelight Lantern logic, keeper's creed Guides the lost and feeds the need Jack-o'-lantern holds the line Salt and smoke and Halloween First voice reads the barometer Second voice reads smoke and soot Both know when the storm will break Both know how the light takes root No grand words, just steady breath Watching darkness starve to death Fog horn moans three miles out Wave breaks hard on hidden shoal Porch light answers, calm and proud One small soul saves one small soul Neither voice asks why or when They just tend the flame again Jack-o'-lantern holds the night Salt and smoke and candlelight Lantern logic, keeper's creed Guides the lost and feeds the need Jack-o'-lantern holds the line Salt and smoke and Halloween Dawn will bleed through eastern glass First voice coaxes ash to coal Second voice will scrape the soot Both will watch the ember glow Another night, another storm Keeper's rhythm, keeper's form Jack-o'-lantern holds the night Salt and smoke and candlelight Lantern logic, keeper's creed Guides the lost and feeds the need Jack-o'-lantern holds the line Salt and smoke and Halloween Salt and smoke and Halloween Wick trimmed clean for tomorrow's dark Keeper's work is never done
