Track Insight / Lyrics
Your spikes bite deep in weathered pole
The test set clicks its steady scroll
Pine needles brush your calloused wrist
Morning fog begins to lift
Wires sing in rising gust
Insulators hold ceramic trust
Current flows through forest floor
You've climbed this path a thousand more
Rest now where the pines stand tall
Listen to the static call
Wire and pine in morning light
Hold the signal through the night
Signal rising, line by line
Signal rising, perfect time
Signal rising, hand and pine
Signal rising, wire and pine
Wire and pine sing through the dawn
Hold the line where you belong
Splicing sleeve joins broken strand
Tape wraps tight with practiced hand
Resin scent from bark and tar
Drifts above the county car
Rest now where the pines stand tall
Listen to the static call
Wire and pine in morning light
Hold the signal through the night
Lamp logic guides your steady eye
Fresnel taught you storm and sky
Now copper carries voice and code
Along this green and winding road
No lantern flash, no foghorn blast
Just humming lines holding fast
The keeper's rhythm in your chest
Finds its peace in pine and rest
Wire and pine sing through the dawn
Hold the line where you belong
Coil the rope, wipe down the pliers
Bank the embers, douse the fires
Another span has been made whole
Another circuit finds its soul
Rest now where the pines stand tall
Listen to the static call
Wire and pine in morning light
Hold the signal through the night
Wire and pine in morning light
Hold the signal through the night
Pine scent climbs the copper line
Salt wind hums through ceramic spine
