Track Insight / Lyrics
Oblivious slumber, darkness reigns
The diner's vacant lot, an endless plain
I watch from shadows, blinded by neon glare
Guarding the night, as the world drifts unaware
Whispers of the city echo through the still
Bare asphalt stretches out, from curb to distant hill
Empty booths count down, numbers frozen in time
As I keep my vigil, the night will not enthrall
[Pre-
The witching hour, a solitary throne
I'll ride the wind, until the dawn's unsure glow
Rise, barn owl, on your haunted wings
Take flight from darkness, as the day's faint rings
Soar to freedom, leave your vigil behind
Rise, barn owl, into the unfurled wind
Eyes ringed red, from guarding the glass
A path of crumbs, the only sign of past
Tired feet aching, heart nearly worn thin
But still I linger, until the light begins
[Pre-
The witching hour, a solitary throne
I'll ride the wind, until the dawn's unsure glow
Rise, barn owl, on your haunted wings
Take flight from darkness, as the day's faint rings
Soar to freedom, leave your vigil behind
Rise, barn owl, into the unfurled wind
As the first light creeps, the world comes alive
And I take flight, on the morning's sigh
My shadows blend, into the rising sun
The day's rebirth, my lonely vigil done
Rise, barn owl, on your haunted wings
Take flight from darkness, as the day's faint rings
Soar to freedom, leave your vigil behind
Rise, barn owl, into the unfurled wind
Into the sky, beneath the radiant light
I'll ride the currents, until the next dark night.
