Track Insight / Lyrics
The meter ticks a steady beat
Cold wind blowing down the street
I saw a flash of silver chrome
A long way from a steady home
The poles are humming in the gray
The city lights are far away
One wrong turn on a gravel road
A heavy heart, a heavy load
Tangled in the pine tree edge
Walking on a narrow ledge
Swaying where the wires meet
Lost inside a forest beat
You ride a bike through needles deep
While all the tired city sleep
I pull the brake and kill the light
To find a stranger in the night
The poles are humming in the gray
The city lights are far away
One wrong turn on a gravel road
A heavy heart, a heavy load
Tangled in the pine tree edge
Walking on a narrow ledge
Swaying where the wires meet
Lost inside a forest beat
I've driven miles of asphalt black
There is no map to lead you back
A rusted spoke, a broken chain
A sudden chill, a hint of rain
Stop the car and step on the grass
Watch the lonely minutes pass
Two blind souls in a green machine
The strangest sight I've ever seen
Tangled in the pine tree edge
Walking on a narrow ledge
Swaying where the wires meet
Lost inside a forest beat
I give a lift, I clear the way
We chase the ghost of early day
The city wakes in golden glare
A sudden breath of morning air
Tangled in the pine tree edge
Walking on a narrow ledge
Swaying where the wires meet
Lost inside a forest beat
Just another fare for the ride
Keep the city deep inside (Brass stab)
Watch the curb.
