Track Insight / Lyrics

I kept the lamp through thirty year Salt wind and fog were all I'd hear Now inland far from crashing tide I watch a different kind of guide Steel cable hums in evening air A shadow climbs the rusted stair Each careful step makes the path clear The drop is far but I don't fear Wire walks where the screen once glowed Balancing on the tales we told Light throws long across the dirt Footsteps quiet, never hurt My boots know every knot and splice I've walked the void at carnival price This drive-in screen's a wider beam Than any spotlight in a dream Steel cable hums in evening air A shadow climbs the rusted stair Each careful step makes the path clear The drop is far but I don't fear Wire walks where the screen once glowed Balancing on the tales we told Light throws long across the dirt Footsteps quiet, never hurt The speaker posts are listing now Like buoys that lost their mooring vow Projector room stands dark and cold A lantern room without the gold Harmonica wails a lonesome tune Beneath the climbing quarter moon Two worlds apart on common ground One looks up and one looks down The wire holds what threads unspun Dawn breaks when the walk is done Wire walks where the screen once glowed Balancing on the tales we told Light throws long across the dirt Footsteps quiet, never hurt Morning paints the screen frame deep red I coil the rope, put tools to bed The lighthouse keeper nods his head We both know why the wire's spread Wire walks where the screen once glowed Balancing on the tales we told Light throws long across the dirt Footsteps quiet, never hurt Wire walks where the screen once glowed Balancing on the tales we told Pedal steel fades on the breeze Two shadows walking separate seas
