Track Insight / Lyrics
Behind the platform, the bookstore's old, unused space
Dust accumulating on racks, its stories locked in place
Cat sleeps curled, a ball of fur, collecting rust and gray
A silent guardian, day by day, fading to the haze
In the darkness, the midnight skies unfold
Whispers of a tale, left untold
Dusty pages holding secrets, anonymous and bold
In the hours of quiet, stories unfold
Subway shuffles by, a rhythmic hum in the dark
Passengers hurry, eyes downcast, missing the cat's spark
Shadows flicker, cast by the tracks, a hypnotic score
The cat's steady breath, the only heartbeat evermore
In the darkness, the midnight skies unfold
Whispers of a tale, left untold
Dusty pages holding secrets, anonymous and bold
In the hours of quiet, stories unfold
Silent companion, keeper of the night
Eyes half-open, skeptical, yet watching the city's plight
Faded photographs, yellowed and torn
Show a world long gone, forever mourned
The cat's world is vast, confined to dusty shelves
Where forgotten works reveal hidden treasures else
The joys of the written word, in countless lives lived
Now only whispers, in the midnight skies, are given
[Verse 5 (optional)]
Perhaps in dreams, the cat weaves a tale of its own
Fables of the nameless, those forever unknown
In the heart of the city, where trains never sleep
A silent sentinel, eternally it'll keep
In the darkness, the midnight skies unfold
Whispers of a tale, left untold
Dusty pages holding secrets, anonymous and bold
In the hours of quiet, stories unfold
Neon fades, the rain subsides, morning light creeps in
The cat stirs, stretches, and pads away to another dawn within
The story remains, buried in pages worn with time
A midnight fable, forever rhyme
