Track Insight / Lyrics
Lonesome sentinel by the highway
Forgotten cargo, empty soul
Guarding secrets of the nighttime
As the semis rumble by my role
Jamas and hood up, against the chill
Knee-high weeds growing 'round my wheels
Flare of headlights paint my dented side
Every whistle's a nightlight for my dreams
In the shadows, my story's told
Terminus for tales of love and gold
Whispers of a life long past
Echoing the heart that won't last
Rusty rhythm keeps me steady
A cargo of nostalgia, slowly speedin'
Through the dark, I'm on my way
To wherever memories drift and sway
Tarnished chrome and rusted brine
Salt spray mingles with the diesel dine
Rail-built platform for lovers' vows
Where miles between hearts make distant calls
In the shadows, my story's told
Terminus for tales of love and gold
Whispers of a life long past
Echoing the heart that won't last
Rusty rhythm keeps me steady
A cargo of nostalgia, slowly speedin'
Through the dark, I'm on my way
To wherever memories drift and sway
Worn-out joints, a ghost in motion
Phantom footprints, my alone devotion
Through the veil of time unseen
To find the love that once was me
Rusty rhythm keeps me steady
A cargo of nostalgia, slowly speedin'
Through the dark, I'm on my way
To wherever memories drift and sway
Lost in the past, a dreamer's cry
In the silence, a lonely sigh
Standing strong, eternity's my abode
Guarding secrets in the dark of the road.
