Track Insight / Lyrics
Battered cab doors slam shut
Sweet nicotine stings the gut
Rumbling engine a prayer
Through winding, treacherous tear-streaked streets I fare
[Pre-
Seek solace in the downpour's hush
Let the rain baptize this pilgrim's rush
Into the depths of city's heart
Where antidotes for the lost start
Rain penitence, a plague of tears
Falling, drowning, fears and doubts in years
Lost souls in concrete cages fade
Chasing ghosts, the living frayed
Cigarette smoke curls in the air
Fading brake lights, a requiem there
Each sobbing wail of the horn
Echoes the despair that I've sworn
Rain penitence, a plague of tears
Falling, drowning, fears and doubts in years
Lost souls in concrete cages fade
Chasing ghosts, the living frayed
Gear grinding, tires screaming
Engine's roar, no time for dreaming
Rain-battered windshield glare
Sirens wail, a city's despair
Searing feedback, raging waves
Echoes crash, the weight I've craved
Searing solos, cathartic release
The demons silenced, but the pain still seethes
Rain penitence, a plague of tears
Falling, drowning, fears and doubts in years
Lost souls in concrete cages fade
Chasing ghosts, the living frayed
Sputtering headlights cast their glow
In the rainwashed streets, I fade to go
Into the storm, the city's roar
Leaving the shadows, forever more
