Track Insight / Lyrics
From this crumbling fire escape, I behold
A city afire, a vision to unfold
High rises pierce the sky, an iron crown
Amidst the concrete jungle, secrets abound
In the twilight's hush, where shadows play
I'll find solace, sway to life's sweet sway
The last shanty lights, a waltz in the dark
Guiding me through, an ember in the heart
Rusted bars entwined with vines of green
Nature's vigor clings, defying concrete sheen
Here the urban pulse beats, a rhythm all its own
Where city sounds intermingle with whispers sown
In twilight's hush, where shadows play
I'll find solace, sway to life's sweet sway
The last shanty lights, a waltz in the dark
Guiding me through, an ember in the heart
The gramophone's worn shell, a relic of the past
WHIRs its final tune, a lullaby to last
As dusk descends like velvet, shading the steel
The city's heartbeat slows, embracing solitude's feel
In twilight's hush, where shadows play
I'll find solace, sway to life's sweet sway
The last shanty lights, a waltz in the dark
Guiding me through, an ember in the heart
Laughter echoes from below, a distant throng
Yet here, the world's din fades, a sweet, gentle song
Beneath the city's clamour, a moment's peace I find
A fragile truce 'twixt chaos and my open mind
In twilight's hush, where shadows dance
I'll find solace, sway to life's sweet trance
The last shanty lights, a soliloquy
Guiding me through, until the night is over
The record's final refrain, a whispered vow
To hold this moment close, as the stars start to show
In the stillness, I drift, a solitary soul
Adrift on the twilight tides, where the city's heart does roll
