Track Insight / Lyrics
Grease on my palms, coffee in my veins
Watchin' shadows creep like ocean stains
Across the tracks, where iron whispers low
Ghosts of journeys long since gone, ago
He's sittin' silent, a weathered face
Haunted eyes, a timeworn grace
Seeks the stillness, in the city's din
A silent captain, where does he begin?
Static and sea, a rhythm so strange
His heart remembers a different range
Of salty winds, and crashing waves so high
Lost at sea, beneath a starless sky
Flicker of lights, a neon bloom
Reflecting in his eyes, a distant room
Of bustling docks, and laughter in the air
Before the anchor dropped, and burdens they did bear
He's holdin' tight, a worn-out map
Searching for answers, in this fading trap
Of concrete dreams, and broken city lights
Searching for home, through long, sleepless nights
Static and sea, a rhythm so strange
His heart remembers a different range
Of salty winds, and crashing waves so high
Lost at sea, beneath a starless sky
Diesel coughs, a lonesome train
Whispers stories, of love and pain
Across the tracks, a fleeting scene
Of dreams unlived, and what might have been
He leans back, his sigh a low refrain
The city watches, in the pouring rain
A silent vigil, under a weary moon
The old sailor waits, for the break of noon
Static and sea, a rhythm so strong
He holds onto hope, where he belongs
The salty breeze, rumors in his ear
The sea is calling, he conquers fear
