Track Insight / Lyrics
Chrome gleams under a bruised sky,
Engine hums a lonely sigh.
Empty seat, a vinyl gleam,
Lost in a half-forgotten dream.
Rain slicked streets, a neon stain,
Another night, the same old pain.
Parked beside the river's flow,
Watching shadows come and go.
River wait, for a hand to hold,
River wait, a story untold.
Empty cab, a silent plea,
Someone, anyone, ride with me.
Headlights paint the water gray,
Another hour slips away.
Faces blur in passing cars,
Searching for distant, fading stars.
River wait, for a hand to hold,
River wait, a story untold.
Empty cab, a silent plea,
Someone, anyone, ride with me.
Old man's cough, a radio tune,
Whispers of a silver moon.
This metal shell, a fragile keep,
Secrets that the city sleep.
River wait, for a hand to hold,
River wait, a story untold.
Empty cab, a silent plea,
Someone, anyone, ride with me.
A flicker of hope, a distant light,
A figure steps into the night.
A weary face, a hopeful glance,
A second chance, a fleeting dance.
Engine roars, a sudden grace,
Leaving this forgotten place.
The river sighs, a gentle moan,
No longer waiting all alone.
River wait is over now,
A hand to hold, somehow, somehow.
Filled with warmth, a hopeful sign,
This empty cab is finally mine.
Down the road, the headlights sweep,
Carrying dreams from slumber deep.
River flows, a silver thread,
Leaving the lonely wait for dead.
