Track Insight / Lyrics
Through the rail yard he wanders, where steel meets gritty ground
Sounds of trains like distant thunder, hollow chimes without a sound
Fog creeps in like wandering souls, cold fingers grasp his face
He breathes in diesel, smoke, and steel, and finds his lonely place
In this world of duality, where shadows dance and souls collide
He stands as guardian, watchful, a silent sentinel inside
Oh, the songs he whispers to the blade, in his bitter, lonely voice
Reminding it of its sacred purpose, to defend and to rejoice
He'll walk each mile come rain
or snow through deserted misty climes
Where crates and crossing, signals, meet the gaze of lonely time
His heart beats out a rhythm
as the mist curls round his form
A melancholy symphony, that echoes, then is gone
In this world of duality, where shadows dance and souls collide
He stands as guardian, watchful, a silent sentinel inside
Oh, the songs he whispers to the blade, in his bitter, lonely voice
Reminding it of its sacred purpose, to defend and to rejoice
The wind it howls a mournful tune, as he faces for the night
And though his path seems futile, futile yet divine
For he knows that in his vigil, lies a higher, purer light
That from this darkness, he shall guide, to a brighter, better time
In this world of duality, where shadows dance and souls collide
He stands as guardian, watchful, a silent sentinel inside
Oh, the songs he whispers to the blade, in his bitter, lonely voice
Reminding it of its sacred purpose, to defend and to rejoice
Now the moon ascends the sky, the night's last shadows play
He'll slip into the slumber of the waking world away
The silver blade a faithful heart
will wait for dawn's first light
And in the stillness of the night, their bond will see them through the fight.
