Track Insight / Lyrics
Steel girders wear a coat of Cladonia gray
You calibrate the lens at dawn's first ray
The dosimeter clicks a steady beat
Your boots sink deep in radioactive peat
You aim the brass through radioactive mist
Geiger counts the rhythm in your fist
Quercus rises where the concrete kissed
Life insists, yes life insists
Betula pendula cracks the asphalt skin
You map the succession where decay begins
Each click a measure of the half-life song
You've waited thirty years, you're not wrong
The eyepiece fogs, you breathe Pinus air
Sphagnum drinks the poison, doesn't care
You track the succession line by line
Each species writes a survival sign
You aim the brass through radioactive mist
Geiger counts the rhythm in your fist
Quercus rises where the concrete kissed
Life insists, yes life insists
No lead lining stops the green return
The half-life bends to root and fern
You measure light in sieverts, not in years
The zone rewrites what disappears
Brass telescope reflects the rising sun
Populus tremula shakes for everyone
You lower lens, the clicking slows to rest
The garden grows across the contaminated crest
You aim the brass through radioactive mist
Geiger counts the rhythm in your fist
Quercus rises where the concrete kissed
Life insists, yes life insists
The brass telescope watches life insist
