Lyrics
You trace the ghost-rails on the Parkland Walk again,
November, four o'clock, the light wears thin.
Remember the friction of it? A hand held in the cold.
A system whose tolerance has started to corrode.
[Chorus]
You hit the shear point, didn't you, boy? The moment it all broke.
A hairline fracture under all the words you spoke.
[Verse 2]

[Bridge]
And the blueprints change. The girders rust.
All that high-tensile hope is just bearing dust.
[Outro]
Past the shear point now.
Just the low-grade hum.
