Track Insight / Lyrics
You stand where the airlock sighs
Leather palms catch photon tides
Each stitch a map of salt and sky
Reflecting beams that never die
The lamp room taught me how to read
The dark by what the light concedes
This hangar hums a steady creed
Lighthouse gloves in orbital night
You hold the beam, you hold the light
No storm can shake this steel-clad shore
The keeper's watch goes on once more
Your fingers trace the cold steel rail
A ghost of foam, a gust of gale
The lens once turned on cliff and wave
Now scans the void the starships brave
The lamp room taught me how to read
The dark by what the light concedes
This hangar hums a steady creed
Lighthouse gloves in orbital night
You hold the beam, you hold the light
No storm can shake this steel-clad shore
The keeper's watch goes on once more
The leather drinks the pale blue hue
A keeper's hands, both tried and true
No foghorn sounds, no crashing spray
Just hum of drives that pave the way
Lighthouse gloves in orbital night
You hold the beam, you hold the light
No storm can shake this steel-clad shore
The keeper's watch goes on once more
You wipe the frost from visor glass
Each breath a cloud that comes to pass
The gloves still glow with borrowed fire
A lighthouse heart that won't expire
Lighthouse gloves in orbital night
You hold the beam, you hold the light
No storm can shake this steel-clad shore
The keeper's watch goes on once more
When shift ends and the bay goes dim
You fold the light away in him
The leather rests, the beam holds fast
A keeper's duty built to last
Lighthouse gloves in orbital night
You hold the beam, you hold the light
No storm can shake this steel-clad shore
The keeper's watch goes on once more
Lighthouse gloves, forever bright
The lamp still turns though seas are gone
Your gloves retain the breaking dawn
