Track Insight / Lyrics
Winter fog is thick and grey
Hiding where the currents play
Cobblestones are slick with sleet
Cold wind bites the empty street
Spin the brass horn, make it loud
Cutting through the heavy cloud
Golden light on iron beams
Waking up the frozen streams
Wooden bridge is arched and old
Wrapped inside a winter fold
Copper gears begin to turn
While the oil lanterns burn
Spin the brass horn, make it loud
Cutting through the heavy cloud
Golden light on iron beams
Waking up the frozen streams
Black water pulls a heavy tide
Nowhere for the ghosts to hide
Steel cables snap in the breeze
Swaying like the willow trees
Spin the brass horn, make it loud
Cutting through the heavy cloud
Golden light on iron beams
Waking up the frozen streams
Sooty bricks and salted lime
Keeping beat and keeping time
One lone needle hits the wax
Tracing out the hidden tracks
Wind it tight until it breaks
Until the frozen river shakes
No more waiting for the sun
Now the midnight race is run
Coffee stains and greasy plates
Waiting at the iron gates
Clockwork humming in the haze
Lost inside a winter maze
Spin the brass horn, make it loud
Cutting through the heavy cloud
Golden light on iron beams
Waking up the frozen streams
Spin the horn, spin it fast
Make the golden moment last
(Gang claps)
The Brass Horn.
