Track Insight / Lyrics
I watch brick curve past Beacon Hill
Anomalous pool sits dark and still
No reflection shows the autumn sky
Just black water watching passersby
Still water holds a secret deep
Where shadows wake while city sleeps
One figure stands at water's edge
Waiting on a silent pledge
I hear fingerpicked guitar in air
Pedal steel cries a lonely prayer
Upright bass walks the cobblestone
Stalker waits for the unknown
Still water holds a secret deep
Where shadows wake while city sleeps
One figure stands at water's edge
Waiting on a silent pledge
I hear harmonica breathe blue bent
Through falling leaves where time is spent
My grill flips eggs on rye bread toast
Watcher blinks, a silent ghost
Still water holds a secret deep
Where shadows wake while city sleeps
One figure stands at water's edge
Waiting on a silent pledge
Morning comes with pale gray light
Pool reflects the breaking night
Stalker melts into the crowd
I serve coffee, head still bowed
I see brick sidewalk empty dawn
Anomalous pool reflects the yawn
Of city waking, stretching wide
I flip eggs with practiced pride
Still water holds a secret deep
Where shadows wake while city sleeps
One figure stood at water's edge
Kept the promise, kept the pledge
My grill goes cold, the shift is done
Still water reflects the sun
