Track Insight / Lyrics
Morning spills across the ticket booth
You save one frame beneath your coat
The gates stand open in the gray
The road remembers how we go
You board the night bus, leaving town
Your camera catches flecks of snow
The fog seals the gates where the carousel rolls
A ghost waits where the midnight goes
Follow my shadow through the closed
You're the last spark out in the snow
Take my cold hand now, don't let go
We'll ride the dark wherever the road goes
Beneath the dinosaurs, you walk
Old popcorn crumbles where you walk
Arcade signs flash through the dark
Red plastic bears guard the park
You pocket confetti from the floor
You photograph dust on a closed door
A carousel horse has no encore
Cold air tugs at your winter coat
Follow my shadow through the closed
You're the last spark out in the snow
Take my cold hand now, don't let go
We'll ride the dark wherever the road goes
You trace your name in the fogged glass
Your tired reflection holds you close
The ticket window is scratched and cracked
Two warm handprints save what was lost
White streetlights blur into the gray
Your reflection learns another face
The fog can roll and hide the day
But these two hands will hold their place
Follow my shadow through the closed
You're the last spark out in the snow
Take my cold hand now, don't let go
We'll ride the dark wherever the road goes
Morning cracks across the ticket booth
You save one frame beneath your coat
The gates stand open in the gray
The road remembers how we go
