Track Insight / Lyrics
I buzz above the broken gate
My pink tubes drink the mossy slate
No buses stop at this address
Just kudzu climbing through the mess
I glow because the night is long
I hum a broken power song
Moss eats steel but skips my glass
I watch the ruin come to pass
My camera eye clicks every rain
Frame by frame the rusted chain
Snapshots stack in silent piles
Developed by the breathing tiles
I glow because the night is long
I hum a broken power song
Moss eats steel but skips my glass
I watch the ruin come to pass
Factory bones poke through the green
The prettiest decay I've seen
I flicker steady, don't need film
To hold the dark against the brim
I glow because the night is long
I hum a broken power song
Moss eats steel but skips my glass
I watch the ruin come to pass
A runaway once slept below
Counted flashes, watched them grow
She left a lens cap in the weeds
Now moss grows where the shutter feeds
I glow because the night is long
I hum a broken power song
Moss eats steel but skips my glass
I watch the ruin come to pass
Harmonica wails through broken panes
Pedal steel cries for forgotten names
Upright bass walks the cracked concrete
My pink tubes hum a low retreat
Now dawn bleeds gold on rusted roof
My tubes grow pale, but that's the proof
I've burned through decades, storms, neglect
Still the brightest wreck, no disconnect
I glow because the night is long
I hum a broken power song
Moss eats steel but skips my glass
I watch the ruin come to pass
Pink light eats the green
Pink light eats the green
Humming low and slow now
Humming low and slow now
