Track Insight / Lyrics
Antique timepiece, silver spun
Counts travelers past the station, one by one
Footsteps echoing, reverberating
Through steel and stone, solitary heart beating
In the quiet dark, a moment's pause
Then footsteps resume, the night's applause
Miles of subway tunnel, black velvet night
Fleeting glimpses, entire lives in flight
Stopwatch ticking, every step a beat
Pitfalls of the dark, shadows at our feet
Weary souls on strangers' trains
Seeking refuge from life's refrains
The underground labyrinth, a secret world
Subterranean dreams, hearts and homeward curled
Midnight pilgrims, searching and adrift
Unspoken longing, a capital of guilt
In the quiet dark, a moment's pause
Then footsteps resume, the night's applause
Miles of subway tunnel, black velvet night
Fleeting glimpses, entire lives in flight
Stopwatch ticking, every step a beat
Pitfalls of the dark, shadows at our feet
Weary souls on strangers' trains
Seeking refuge from life's refrains
In this hidden network, a fleeting respite
Momentary solace, a tired heart's satellite
Unspoken kinship, a traveler's gentle grasp
Acknowledging the road, too often a hectic past
Stopwatch ticking, every step a beat
Pitfalls of the dark, shadows at our feet
Weary souls on strangers' trains
Seeking refuge from life's refrains
Ticking, ticking, an eternal heartbeat
Until tomorrow, a new path to meet.
