Track Insight / Lyrics
Shadowed booths, a lifeless scale
Echoes of comforts never real
Now an empty depot nest
Where the weary sometimes rest
In his station, never a guest
Leather wears the watchman's crest
Whispers of lands far away
On faded maps, etched in gray
When silence trembles, he's the stay
Guarding dreams that drift astray
In this place he made his stand
Worn by time's relentless hand
Oh, the night's whispering secrets told
In leather's worn, cracked gold
Listens as the world unwinds
Where the railtracks disappear, where the signs
Blink a final time; that's the end
Of another story to amend
Old train whistles like a lullaby
Haunted melodies he's grown to know
Brake's metallic sigh, wheels cry out high
In a lonely symphony he seats
On worn wooden chairs, neatly aligned
Trophies from journey's tired lines
Whispers of lands far away
On faded maps, etched in gray
When silence trembles, he's the stay
Guarding dreams that drift astray
In this place he made his stand
Worn by time's relentless hand
Oh, the night's whispering secrets told
In leather's worn, cracked gold
Listens as the world unwinds
Where the railtracks disappear, where the signs
Blink a final time; that's the end
Of another story to amend
Times change, but he remains
As the peeling paint, the rust and stains
Fade into a forgotten scene
A sentinel of life unseen
Where concrete heartbeats once ran
Now only echoes of a train
Oh, the night's whispering secrets told
In leather's worn, cracked gold
Listens as the world unwinds
Where the railtracks disappear, where the signs
Blink a final time; that's the end
Of another story to amend
Glassy eyes through night's dim shine
Watching worlds beyond his time
In worn leather, he'll hold the line
Guarding a piece of the past, in time
