Track Insight / Lyrics
Flickers fade in bitter blackness
Shadows writhe, then shiver still
Rusted tracks, an empty platform,
Await a day that's yet to will
Gears crunch, chain rattle, engine sighs
The night's last breath, the dawn's disguise
You lean in close, a solitary form
Checker'd tiles, your only norm
[Pre-
Midnight's chill and darkness cold
Contrast to the fire in your soul
A flicker of defiance within
As city sleeps, their vigil you begin
Rise up, a solitary voice through steel
Your anthem echoes, against the gears you deal
Fractured dawn, where darkness breaks the seal
In this soul-soaked station, you stand and reveal
Coils hiss, hydraulics groan beneath
Concrete walls, a battleground for breath
The city's pulse in distant beats
While you maintain the rhythm of your weary feet
[Pre-
Steel and stone, a cage of dreams concedes
To the rhythm of your labor, the whir of the machine's needs
Though the world's asleep, you're on your feet
A heartbeat in the darkness, a metronome so neat
Rise up, a solitary voice through steel
Your anthem echoes, against the gears you deal
Fractured dawn, where darkness breaks the seal
In this soul-soaked station, you stand and reveal
Pistons thud, a brutal rhythm, slamming
Gears shriek, protesting, flailing
The abyss of sound, a living thing
As the world begins to squeeze the life out of you, drowning
Screeching notes, a desperate plea
As the machine drags you toward the void, the sea
Rise up, a solitary voice through steel
Your anthem echoes, against the gears you deal
Fractured dawn, where darkness breaks the seal
In this soul-soaked station, you stand and reveal
The shift's end, a pause, then reignite
A spark within, an ember, a light
An unyielding core, that refines the fight
Against the crushing weight of that endless night
