Track Insight / Lyrics
Rain on corrugated roofs starts to ease
Heritage towers cast long, lonesome tease
My bed's a skinny plywood affair
The city's bustle muffled, like a veil in the air
But let the rising sun light up the night
Paint me in warm colors, banish endless fight
I'll rise with daybreak, shake off yesterday's stain
Leave my mark in this city, burn out the pain
Distant sirens cry out their lullaby
Against the rattle of trains, a peaceful sigh
Crumbling plaster walls, a mural of time
Each crack, each pothole, tells a secret rhyme
But let the rising sun light up the night
Paint me in warm colors, banish endless fight
I'll rise with daybreak, shake off yesterday's stain
Leave my mark in this city, burn out the pain
Lost souls scatter like leaves in the breeze
Their stories etched in graffiti on these streets
Yet amidst the decay, beauty still finds a way
This den of shadows, somehow, still holds the day
Sunbeams seep through, chasing the night away
Golden light upon my face, I'm reborn each day
In this concrete alcove, my spirit finally Soars
As I dance, the world outside cedes to soaring scores
Let the rising sun light up the night
Paint me in warm colors, banish endless fight
I rise with daybreak, shed yesterday's pain
Leave my mark in this city, burn out the strain
Hazy morning light creeps 'cross my floor
Old neon fades, but hope kisses me once more
This attic perch, my sanctuary, where I thrive
Witness to the city's secrets, as I reach the sky.
