Lyrics
The hum of the gantry cranes off Pier J at 2 AM last Tuesday
Your head on my chest, mapping the fissures in the plaster clay
You traced a line with a fingertip, a slow and patient art

But this structure was condemned years ago
[Outro]
Just waitin' on the shift work...
Yeah... a point load...
