Track Insight / Lyrics
Forgotten behind the workshop door
Moisture seeping through oak floors
I once guided hands in the dark night
Now I rust, lost to the light
Inky shadows, a child's tears
My needle wavers, losing years
Through worn grooves, the truth does hide
Pointing to a life left inside
New leaves unfurl, strangers explore
My message to them, I implore
To find their way with a steady hand
Before time buries a life in sand
Oh, compass, your pulse beats on
Prismatic trails, now outgrown
In this life, I'll guide the night
Holding onto the fading light
Garden overgrows, a stranger's footsteps
Crushing my fragile, worth a thought
But in the earth, my essence stays
Primed to lead, in dreams, new ways
Beneath time's silence, I remain
A rusting witness, still in vain
To a life lived with purpose true
Plotting paths, for whom, anew
Time's river rushes, the world spins
A legacy, the compass within
Guiding souls, against the tide
Silently praying, they won't subside
Oh, compass, your pulse beats on
Prismatic trails, now outgrown
In this life, I'll guide the night
Holding onto the fading light
As seasons change, as life flows by
A message contained, forever nigh
In rusting steel, a human tale
A compass true, beyond fail
Oh, compass, your pulse beats on
Prismatic lights, in the dawn
In this life, I'll guide the night
Forever holding onto the light
Compass, compass, beating strong
In the darkness, guiding right
A silent heart, a guiding hand
Eternal wisdom, in rust and sand
