Track Insight / Lyrics
Neon fog, steel bones sing,
Cows come home on silent wings
City holds its breath and sleeps,
While the hound below softly weeps
Salty mist on weathered paws,
He watches ships through ocean causeways
Stars like diamonds scattered wide,
But he only has his city pride
Pierhound, lonely soul he'll roam,
Missing a warmth he can't call home
Golden eyes catch streetlights' gleam,
Lost in a waking, restless dream
Footsteps hush, a rumble near,
Cabs like stars disappear
He hears a whistle, soft and low,
An echo of a long ago
Pierhound, lonely soul he'll roam,
Missing a warmth he can't call home
Golden eyes catch streetlights' gleam,
Lost in a waking, restless dream
The fisherman, he knows them all,
The stories whispered in the squall
They tell of lost love, broken dreams,
And the hound's heart silently screams
Pierhound, lonely soul he'll roam,
Missing a warmth he can't call home
Golden eyes catch streetlights' gleam,
Lost in a waking, restless dream
The bay sighs, a mournful sound,
He turns away, eyes to the ground
One last glimpse of the city's light,
Before the darkness of the night
Pierhound, lonely soul, he'll roam,
Missing a warmth he can't call home
Golden eyes catch streetlights' gleam,
Lost in a waking, restless dream
