Track Insight / Lyrics
Wind-whipped banners of peeling paint
Rust and lichen, an urban stain
Gulls crying oaths as gale-force gusts
Wash the pier, wipe away the rust
Winter's grasp on creaking decks
Rusty secrets hinting at past successes
Moonlit nights when crews frantically toiled
Stacking crates, lung-busting, souls encoiled
Rusted whispers traveled far and wide
Echoing through these weathered piers
Forgotten cargo and seafarer's pride
Whispers fading away to echoes, gone without a speck of cheer
Hazy memories of distant lands
Spices and silks, hands that grasp hands
Tales of fortune and calamity's hand
As pier's shade plays host to nature's aftermath
Winter's grasp on creaking decks
Rusty secrets hinting at past successes
Moonlit nights when crews frantically toiled
Stacking crates, lung-busting, souls encoiled
Rusted whispers traveled far and wide
Echoing through these weathered piers
Forgotten cargo and seafarer's pride
Whispers fading away to echoes, gone without a speck of cheer
Whispers call to wander in the night
Of foreign shores, forgotten lights
Rebel hearts, outcasts, dreamers and drifters too
Rusted piers leave us lost, yet we're drawn anew
Rusted whispers call to me
From weathered decks, where secrets plead
Call of adventure in the wind's sigh
My tattered life, forever tied
Crusty old piers creak and sway
Salt-crusted phantoms of a bygone day
Fortune's feast or famine drifting through their skeletal frame
