Track Insight / Lyrics
The platform lights flickered, a hazy glow
Streetlamps like fireflies, casting shadows low
He stood, hunched shoulder, a figure worn and gray
Watching the metal stream, vanish with the day
Rusty moonbeam, fallen on the train tracks
Reflecting off that water, like a memory comes back
The city sleeps, a concrete jungle, still and deep
He's counting every penny, for another cup to keep
The diner door swung open, a scent of coffee strong
Waffle griddle hissing, like a tired, lonely song
He took a seat by the window, ordered a black brew
Each sip a bitter comfort, a familiar, mournful cue
Rusty moonbeam, fallen on the train tracks
Reflecting off that water, like a memory comes back
The city sleeps, a concrete jungle, still and deep
He's counting every penny, for another cup to keep
He watched the pigeons gather, pecking at the ground
Same tired circle, day to day, no escape to be found
But in that moonlit puddle, a tiny universe shone
A universe of longing, a story left unknown
Rusty moonbeam, fallen on the train tracks
Reflecting off that water, like a memory comes back
The city sleeps, a concrete jungle, still and deep
He's counting every penny, for another cup to keep
The night wore on, the trains kept rolling by
He saw a girl with tear
stained eyes and thought of someone nigh
A woman with a smile, and laughter like the rain
He poured another cup, and whispered her name
The sun began to rise, painting the sky with gold
He finished his coffee, and his story untold
He tipped the waitress, walked outside, and into the dawn
A new day had begun, but he walked on, alone
Rusty moonbeam, fading with the day
Reflection in the water, washing the memory away
The city wakes, a concrete jungle, bright and bold
But in his heart, the story, forever will be told.
