Track Insight / Lyrics
Mist unwinds like a velvet shroud, graffiti on the darkest night
Concrete castle in the gloom, a modern labyrinth takes flight
Neon shadows stretch and bleed, strobe lights stroking the sky
Forever alone on this chill midnight bridge, my violin asks why
The empty highway loves me like a mistress, road that's only mine
Midnight bridge whispers secrets, high and low, where the city's soul divine
River's sigh echoes, a wet sigh, of waters that never sleep
Longing for the fire and steel, that's all I feel
Violin's melancholy cry, laments the stolen light
Nowhere to hide from this cold truth, on this desolate, endless night
And as the city's pulse goes black, and lights dissolve to stars
I hold my sorrow like a rose, and cry behind the bars
Oh, the empty highway loves me like a mistress, road that's only mine
Midnight bridge whispers secrets, high and low, where the city's soul is mine
Lonely out here, chasing dreams, in this concrete maze
Trying to find my place, where love and joy amaze
But the city's heart beats cold tonight, just a hollow, empty sound
And my violin moans the truth, of a heart forever unbound
And as the city's pulse goes black, and lights dissolve to stars
I hold my sorrow like a rose, and cry behind the bars
Oh, the empty highway loves me like a mistress, road that's only mine
Midnight bridge whispers secrets, high and low, where the city's soul is mine
Crickets sing their lullaby, icy wind begins to moan
As I strum the violin's wail, and let my spirit go
In this moment, I am free, from the chains of what I've known
Embracing solitude, and all the beauty that is shown
So if you see a lonely figure, on this midnight bridge tonight
Playing his melodies of longing, lost in the city's light
Just know he's not a stranger, to these shadows and this pain
He's just a wanderer, in love with love, and the highway's sweet refrain
Clack, clack, clack - the solitary rhythm of my boots on the steel plate
