Track Insight / Lyrics

You tightrope walk on chicken wire Diner stool a brief respire Eggs over easy yolks run gold Stories of the night untold [Pre- Steam rises from the porcelain cup Your calloused hands don't need to look up The grill clock ticks a frantic beat You rest your boots on vinyl seat Wire and grease the night shift creed High above the world you bleed But here the coffee's strong and black One moment's peace before the crack Salt shaker rattles on the tray Morning papers stacked in gray You wipe the dust from steel-toed boots Count the rivets count the routes [Pre- Steam rises from the porcelain cup Your calloused hands don't need to look up The grill clock ticks a frantic beat You rest your boots on vinyl seat Wire and grease the night shift creed High above the world you bleed But here the coffee's strong and black One moment's peace before the crack Pie slices sit under glass dome You trace the cracks on your way home The wire hums a low voltage song But here the night feels less long Short order cook flips hash browns flat You tip your hat imagine that The rush will come the dawn will break But for now the coffee's sake No safety net beneath the feet Just gravity and concrete heat But in this booth the air is still A moment's grace a quiet thrill Whoa-oh the wire sings Whoa-oh the grease clings Whoa-oh the night takes flight Whoa-oh hold on tight Wire and grease the night shift creed High above the world you bleed But here the coffee's strong and black One moment's peace before the crack Coffee cup empties on the wire Dawn breaks grey you rise higher
