Track Insight / Lyrics
Rain slicks the chrome on Market Street
A leather book at the alley's feet
Salt-cracked cover, pages worn thin
Holding stories the tide pulled in
Neon tide rolls through the night
Paper holds the lantern's light
Keeper watches, keeper stays
Storm writes what the sea betrays
Harmonium hums from a doorway wide
Foot tambourine keeps the rolling stride
Gang claps rise on the midnight air
Notebook breathes with a sailor's prayer
Neon tide rolls through the night
Paper holds the lantern's light
Keeper watches, keeper stays
Storm writes what the sea betrays
Ink bleeds slow in the sodium glow
Coordinates only the lost would know
Latitude marked in bourbon stains
Longitude drawn by cable chains
Neon tide rolls through the night
Paper holds the lantern's light
Keeper watches, keeper stays
Storm writes what the sea betrays
Dawn cracks pale on the glass and steel
Notebook shut with a leather seal
Keeper turns from the city's roar
Carries the tide to a distant shore
Neon tide rolls through the night
Paper holds the lantern's light
Keeper watches, keeper stays
Storm writes what the sea betrays
Salt in the binding, light in the page
Neon tide turns another page
