Track Insight / Lyrics
Fog creeps over squalid tracks
Neon signs flicker shadows black
Gloved hands clench, never stray
Protective vigil for what remains
Time-stained leather, muted hue
Watching darkness, waiting for the dew
Guarding secrets in the gloom
Where memories seep through abandoned rooms
Umbra's guard, steadfast in the night
Shadows dance, a futile, fruitless fight
Against the dawn, the inevitable light
But still they hold, they never take flight
Bus headlights cast a ghostly glow
Whispers of the lost, the ones who went
Gloved fingers wrapped around cold steel
A futile token against life's cruel deal
Time-stained leather, muted hue
Watching darkness, waiting for the dew
Guarding secrets in the gloom
Where memories seep through abandoned rooms
Umbra's guard, steadfast in the night
Shadows dance, a futile, fruitless fight
Against the dawn, the inevitable light
But still they hold, they never take flight
The city's pulse, a distant beat
Forgotten lives, a fading retreat
But still they stand, though time assaults
In quiet defiance, they never fall
Umbra's guard, steadfast in the night
Shadows dance, a futile, fruitless fight
Against the dawn, the inevitable light
But still they hold, they never take flight
As dawn's first rays begin to creep
The fog recedes, the shadows sleep
But the gloves remain, an enduring hold
Umbra's guard, forever told.
