Track Insight / Lyrics
Gulls cry out, salty mist surrounding
A lonely ship, lights dimly glowing
Docile sailors settling in for sleep
While I, the weathervane, keen and seep
My iron eyes rake the gathering thick
Scanning the pier, I hold my watch
Each cargo hold, dark and still as stone
As dawn's first light slowly renders the unknown
Safe haven, or so it would seem
But storms can rise in the earliest dream
My gaze remain locked, vigilant and true
Should anyone need me, I'll forever see them through
Misty pier vigil, through rain and day
A steadfast guardian, in my chosen way
I watch over ships, over lives at sea
Weathering all storms, for you and me
Tugs and ferries dock, day's trading done
Mercy and justice, painted on their fun
Families reunite, and tales unfold
The city's heartbeat, as the stories are told
I scan each face, as the sun sets low
Hoping to find a familiar soul
A friend, a love, a child seeking home
But none turn to gaze where I am known
Misty pier vigil, through rain and day
A steadfast guardian, in my chosen way
I watch over ships, over lives at sea
Weathering all storms, for you and me
The sea, my witness, through every tide
Whispers secrets, only known inside
Of fortune's wheel, of life's ebb and flow
In the misty dawn, as the city grows
Misty pier vigil, through rain and day
A steadfast guardian, in my chosen way
I watch over ships, over lives at sea
Weathering all storms, for you and me
Fading light, as night descends
The city's pulse, as the day ended
My copper heart beats, as the stars appear
Ready to guard, through another year
