Track Insight / Lyrics
Paper thin, a memory glow
Match heads burnin', embers low
Salty air, a faded sign
Burned-down dreams on the sandline
You were young, eyes wide and bright
Coffee steamin', neon light
Walkin' in, heavy boots and pack
Never knew the ocean's crack
Flicker of flame, a story told
Matchbook motel, hearts grow cold
Burnin' bright, then turnin' black
Matchbook motel, on the right track
Memories fade, like the smoke we blew
A vanished world, forever true
First kiss shared, under a sky
Of twinkling stars, you didn't lie
Promise whispered, soft and low
Never knowing, love would go
Flicker of flame, a story told
Matchbook motel, hearts grow cold
Burnin' bright, then turnin' black
Matchbook motel, on the right track
Memories fade, like the smoke we blew
A vanished world, forever true
Sunrise paintin', waves did crash
Empty room, a tearin' bash
Matchbook layin', by the door
Whisperin' secrets, we can't ignore
Wind howlin' through the broken panes
Ghosts of laughter, echoin' strains
The fire's gone, but the embers glow
Matchbook motel, let's go slow
Burnin' bright, then turnin' black
Matchbook motel, on the right track
Memories fade, like the smoke we blew
A vanished world, forever true
Empty chairs, where we once sat
Silent stories, where dreams were at
Hold the flame, and let it shine
Matchbook motel, a love divine
Burnin' bright, then turnin' black
Matchbook motel, on the right track
Memories fade, like the smoke we blew
A vanished world, forever true
