Track Insight / Lyrics
Dust motes dance in a silver beam,
A lonely whistle, a fading dream.
Keys are clicking, a ghost in the shell,
Stories unfolding, it knows them well.
You watch the boxcars rumble and sigh,
Rust blooms crimson against the grey sky.
Each passing train a forgotten name,
A hollow echo, a flickering flame.
The fog rolls in, a whispered plea,
This steel cathedral remembers you and me.
Cold metal breathes a lonely sound,
Lost connections on hallowed ground.
Rail yard ghosts in the fading light,
Typewriter keys through the long, long night.
Each letter pressed, a memory shown,
A silent story, beautifully known.
You trace the lines on a weathered face,
A forgotten letter in this desolate place.
The steel wheels turning, a rhythmic beat,
Lost promises, bittersweet and complete.
The fog rolls in, a whispered plea,
This steel cathedral remembers you and me.
Cold metal breathes a lonely sound,
Lost connections on hallowed ground.
Rail yard ghosts in the fading light,
Typewriter keys through the long, long night.
Each letter pressed, a memory shown,
A silent story, beautifully known.
A chipped ceramic mug, cold and still,
Empty spaces only time can fill.
You see your reflection in the oily sheen,
A fleeting moment, a ghostly scene.
The harmonica wails a mournful strain,
Washing away the heartache and pain.
Every carriage holds a secret told,
Stories of wanderers, brave and bold.
Rail yard ghosts in the fading light,
Typewriter keys through the long, long night.
Each letter pressed, a memory shown,
A silent story, beautifully known.
You press a key, a final line,
A whispered farewell, a love divine.
The engine groans, a distant call,
Letting go of everything, giving your all.
Rail yard ghosts in the fading light,
Typewriter keys through the long, long night.
Each letter pressed, a memory shown,
A silent story, beautifully known.
Clicking keys fade into the grey,
Another ghost drifts away, away.
The train departs, a lonely trace,
Lost in the echoes of this haunted place.
