Track Insight / Lyrics
Ferry boat hums, rain on the ferry
Leaves your hood a drizzle-map
Misty bridge tolls, you can't recall
How you got here, just pay the man's call
Pier pillows drenched, a sea fog around
In this solitude, you don't belong
Washed in the wind, standing alone
Passerby silhouettes, strangers unknown
The past may fade like mist off the sea
In a harbor's stillness, that's just me
Cops in raincoats, a cursory glance
You're just another outlier in this town's dance
Weary of regrets, you squint at the rain
A dream of escape from this static pain
Dusk clouds gather, a lonely refrain
As night seeps in, the pier's your only haven
In this moment, lost yet somehow free
Miles from where you started, anonymous
What's real and what's a mirage? You can't tell
The gulls cry out, a mournful requiem
Fading into the shadows, you'll be alright
In the harbor's quiet, you'll find your light
Just for tonight, this place is your refuge
In the wind and the rain, you've found your release
County buildings recede, the world unseen
No phone, no GPS, just the pier's silhouette serene
You're just a ghost haunting this outdated shore
A stranger in a strange land, forever adrift once more
As the night drags on, the isolation grows
But in this solitude, some wounds may finally close
The bridge tolls again, another payment due
For time spent gazing out at the sea, blue
In this solitude, you distill and refine
Your true self, untethered and undefined
Fading into the shadows, you'll be alright
In the harbor's quiet, you'll find your light
Just for tonight, this place is your refuge
In the wind and the rain, you've found your release
Salt air
