Track Insight / Lyrics
Clouds dissolve on Sydneyside harbor
Finder's keepers on the shore
Waves spasming on the rocky tide
Ghosts of ships long since adrift
Flickers of neon laneways dancing
Lonesome rhythms of the city night
Eyelids heavy, eyes wide open
Staring down into the chloride light
The harbor winds its mournful tune
Through the cranes and the concrete's boom
Praying for the morning sun
When darkness fades and night is gone
But till then crickets hold their song
Along the foreshore where I belong
My heart beats slow, my head nods low
Into the night, I let my thoughts go
Under Sydney lights, the night will keep
My watch and my vigil, a steadfast sleep
The city's heartbeat, the waves' sublime
Lull me deeper, in this harbor time
City's thrumming, like a working hive
Buildings pierce the sky, a steel and glass divide
Lights and sounds and sensations course
Through the veins of this concrete force
Rise the skyscrapers, dark giants reign
Leaving room for me to sit and stay
Beat drops and synths respond
Electric euphoria of Sydneyside bond
The music pulses, the scene ignites
Neon lovers dancing through the night
Their struggles fade, their spirits free
Dissolving in the city's energy
Electric dreamscapes shifting fast
Neon hues and grooves that last
From the Core to the East End's heart
The night pulsed on, a kinetic art
I lose myself in every sound
Lured by the shimmering city round
Under Sydney lights, the night will keep
My watch and my vigil, a steadfast sleep
The city's heartbeat, the waves' sublime
Lull me deeper, in this harbor time
Each dawn a new story's told
As embers fade and an unseen gold
Paints the horizon, distant, hazy bright
A new day dawns, and night takes flight
Offshore a ship's horn, a mournful sigh
Echoes through the morning's breaking sky
Synths peak, a soaring crescendo
Comets of sound streak across the sky's empyrean
The city's joy, the city's pain
Disappearing in the morning's stain
As Sydneyside's nightwatch fades away
And the harbor lights surrender to the day
Flickers of neon, dying slow
As the harbor's pulse begins to wane and slow
The city dreaming, the city's sigh
As I rise, and let the daylight in, and lie
