Track Insight / Lyrics
Under Amsterdam's bridge, a winter's nightshade
I wrapped my self in a raincoat, colours frayed
Misted city blues, but my spirit won't decay
Beneath loved ones' spoken names, a hidden place to stay
In the shadows, I seek solace from life's sway
The city's pulse thrums in my veins, perpetually strayed
From the paths of worn expectation
I drift to where I roam
Where finally, I can exhale the air that's not my own
Raincoat ragamuffins, stumbling through the grime
We chase the urban myth of an unmapped time
In this hazy twilight world where faces blur and fade
We're the ones who've traded comfort for the city's shade
The canal's lapping at my feet as I contemplate my dreams
Of shattered fragments reassembled in a million neon schemes
But in the mist, the city mesmerizes with its siren song
And I'm swept away, forever wandering where I don't belong
In the shadows, I seek solace from life's sway
The city's pulse thrums in my veins, perpetually strayed
From the paths of worn expectation, I drift to where I roam
Where finally, I can exhale the air that's not my own
Raincoat ragamuffins, stumbling through the grime
We chase the urban myth of an unmapped time
In this hazy twilight world where faces blur and fade
We're the ones who've traded comfort for the city's shade
As dawn's first light creeps over canals slick with rain
And I gaze out at the city, its beauty I can't explain
This dichotomy of day and night, light and dark entwined
I'll find my place within this labyrinth, leave no piece of myself behind
Raincoat ragamuffins, stumbling through the grime
We chase the urban myth of an unmapped time
In this hazy twilight world where faces blur and fade
We're the ones who've traded comfort for the city's shade
Rusty watering can, a relic of what's left behind
As fog rolls in, the city's heartbeat I am aligned
In this restless, rain-soaked night, I'll keep on drifting free
A raincoat ragamuffin, belonging only to the city's sea.
