Track Insight / Lyrics

High above the harbor town Where the heavy rain falls down One old candle burns a hole Taking hold of a tired soul Parchment spreads across the pine Tracing out a jagged line Ink is thick and midnight black Once it's gone there is no way back Keep the flicker in your sight Racing hard against the light Turning pages in the wind Where the ancient spells begin Golden wax is dripping slow While the city lights below Wait for morning to arrive Keeping all the ghosts alive Keep the flicker in your sight Racing hard against the light Turning pages in the wind Where the ancient spells begin The tower shakes with every word A sound the city never heard Grab the quill and hold it tight Before the sun kills off the night Copper rings and heavy keys Bringing a scholar to his knees Searching for a hidden door Across the cold and stone-cut floor Now the wick is burning low And the steady breezes blow Last few lines of a secret art Tearing every page apart Keep the flicker in your sight Racing hard against the light Turning pages in the wind Where the ancient spells begin The sun is breaking through the gray. The ink has washed away.
