Track Insight / Lyrics

Coffee rings on Formica shine Night shift hums in borrowed time Eggs crack slow on seasoned steel Stories stick like morning meal Regulars laugh at short order jokes Typewriter counts the hallway steps Kettle sings while darkness sleeps Each clack a heartbeat in the floor We wait for morning at the door Ink and grease in morning haze Ribbon worn on aging keys Footsteps pause at twenty-three Shadow stretches thin and long Dawn writes verses for the song Paper feeds with quiet grace Bacon pops in cast iron deep Manuscript collects the sleep Order called by memory's hand Chapters end where mornings fold Two solitudes share counter space Typewriter counts the hallway steps Kettle sings while darkness sleeps Each clack a heartbeat in the floor We wait for morning at the door Ink and grease in morning haze Steam climbs the window glass pane Keys fall silent in the hush Footsteps fade in morning blush Two worlds breathe in same small room Light dissolves the heavy gloom Check gets paid with trembling hand Final period marks the end Bell rings out for one last cup Typewriter lifts its metal up Day begins on dirty dishes Typewriter counts the hallway steps Kettle sings while darkness sleeps Each clack a heartbeat in the floor We wait for morning at the door Footsteps fade but rhythm stays Ink and grease in morning haze Kettle whistles keys rest quiet Morning breaks on greasy plates
