Track Insight / Lyrics
Industrial cold-front sweeps city steel
Salty wind licks, stinging bright
Night shift passes, baker's wheel
Slow slog, concrete cloistered
Midnight grease, crumb-splattered palms
Till dawn, headlights flicker, eat the night
Forgotten signs, squinting spans
Sirens wail like wolves in city's cage
[Pre-
Rusty gates creak, hinges groan
A lone silhouette fades to dawn
Fading twilight, engine drone
Neon ghostlight, urban sprawl
Rusty vagabond, the lonesome cook
Fires engines, hooks, and tokens, breaks the lock
Bread for the city, from broken thoughts
A phoenix baking, while night blots
Dust falls soft, alleys hollowed
Battered vans, cargo hold
Symbols decaying, gilded ovals
Chain-link eyes weep saltwater deep
[Build-
Forgotten memories, backlit scenes
Graffiti whispers, peeling dreams
Frozen frames, ghosts in streets
Coastal winds howl, an expanse
Rusty vagabond, the lonesome cook
Fires engines, hooks, and tokens, breaks the lock
Bread for the city, from broken thoughts
A phoenix baking, while night blots
Rusty vagabond, the lonesome cook
Fires engines, hooks, and tokens, breaks the lock
Bread for the city, from broken thoughts
A phoenix baking, while night blots
Sapphire sky, first light unfurls
Fading asphalt, concrete whirls
An urban womb, alive with spark
Rusty vagabond heart beats in the dark
Rusty vagabond, the lonesome cook
Fires engines, hooks, and tokens, breaks the lock
Bread for the city, from broken thoughts
A phoenix baking, while night blots
Fading embers, engine quiet
A vigil keeper, lonesome knight
City's jaws, a hungry beast
Rusty heart, in endless quest
