Track Insight / Lyrics
City streets wrapped in darkness fall
Neon lights blink out of their call
Map in my hands, as I stroll through
Sidewalks all mine, no end in view
Lines crisscross, a spider's web
Each stop, a memory to share and ever to be
Connections unmade, routes untrod
Riding the ghosts of a ride gone cold
Midnight Metro Maps, through empty stations I roam
Where the lights once shone, now only shadows moan
Maps of passage and echoes of the past
In the still of night, their secrets I am cast
Forgotten piers, ticket booths locked down
Echoes of laughter, screams of joy drowned Countertrack, divergent lines
Once pulsing, now a slow decline
Lines crisscross, a spider's web
Each stop, a memory to share and ever to be
Connections unmade, routes untrod
Riding the ghosts of a ride gone cold
Midnight Metro Maps, through empty stations I roam
Where the lights once shone, now only shadows moan
Maps of passage and echoes of the past
In the still of night, their secrets I am cast
Stale air, mildew taint
Rust outlines what's been gained
Abandoned halls, faded signs
Life's ghost trips over some lines
Midnight Metro Maps, through empty stations I roam
Where the lights once shone, now only shadows moan
Maps of passage and echoes of the past
In the still of night, their secrets I am cast
Maps tucked away, in my hand now still
Empty echoes of a ride once throngful
Midnight Metro Maps, whispered stories untold
Forgotten tales of a life now grown old
