Track Insight / Lyrics

Iron ribs breathe salt beneath the pier Quercus rust grows slow on steel this year Wind writes latin on the flaking skin Roots hold fast where tidal currents begin Photosynthesis in the brine and tin I am freight car, salt-pruned, waiting Tide turns slow but I am not fading Wheels remember rails that sang before Harbor holds me, ocean wants me more Freedom grows in rusted iron core Barnacles bloom like lichen on the door Salicornia thrives on boron shore My chlorophyll is oxide, red and deep Dormant season, promises I keep Spring will crack the seams where shadows sleep I am freight car, salt-pruned, waiting Tide turns slow but I am not fading Wheels remember rails that sang before Harbor holds me, ocean wants me more Freedom grows in rusted iron core Gulls cry taxonomy in minor key Taxodium knees in brackish sea I photosynthesize the morning mist Ironwood heart in wooden chest Budding freight dreams, tightly clenched fist No soil here but salt and time No sunlight but the harbor's rhyme Yet xylem rises, phloem flows Where nobody expects it grows Keel bolts loosen, rivets sing release Halophyte strength brings inner peace My leaves are steel, my sap is rain My rings are rust on bolts and chain Next high tide breaks the pier's domain I am freight car, salt-pruned, waiting Tide turns slow but I am not fading Wheels remember rails that sang before Harbor holds me, ocean wants me more Freedom grows in rusted iron core Wheels touch rail on supernatural night Phytochrome triggered by harbor light Salt & iron, hybrid, wild, set free Botany of motion, finally Rolling roots where tracks meet open sea I am freight car, salt-pruned, waiting Tide turns slow but I am not fading Wheels remember rails that sang before Harbor holds me, ocean wants me more Freedom grows in rusted iron core Freedom grows in rusted iron core Salt & iron, rolling home Salt & iron, finally roam
