Track Insight / Lyrics
Sticky dust on my fingers, wiping paint and time
Riding solo through weekend nights, to a depot sublime
I see it in the twilight, a ghost of what it was
Peeling paint and broken dreams, but still it inspires us
Oh, I'll ride these lonely miles, searching for a sign
Catching rays of what's to be, before the darkness of time
Rusty wheels, taking me places, flawed yet undeniable
Rusty wheels, a charm of shadows, on the uneven line
Creaking beams and squeaky floorboards, a symphony of time
Pointless keys of old pianos, echoes of hearts that aligned
A love letter on the wall, with lipstick lines so fine
Footsteps of strangers and flashlights, locked within this shrine
Oh, I'll ride these lonely miles, searching for a sign
Catching rays of what's to be, before the darkness of time
Rusty wheels, taking me places, flawed yet undeniable
Rusty wheels, a charm of shadows, on the uneven line
Old train whistles in the distance, shadows lengthen fast
Wisps of fog will soon obscure, this moment cast
In time, all things fade like neon, streets alive no more
But tonight, beneath the moonlight, I'll unlock its door
The world may change and move on, but I'll cling to this place
With every mile and dusty mile, memories take their space
Oh, rusty wheels, taking me places, flawed yet undeniable
On the worn-out rails I'll ride, where shadows lengthen and slide
Rusty wheels spinning, on to new horizons I'll find
While this depot sleeps, the city wakes, and time keeps winding.
