[Intro: Sparse rim-click percussion with distant wind ambience, deep dub bass entering slowly, clean electric guitar harmonics soaked in delay, low droning organ texture rising beneath the mix] Cold wind drifting through the wire Smoke and shadows climbing higher [Verse] Dust on the station floor tonight Neon flickers without delight Faces passing with lowered eyes Names disappear beneath the sky Broken signs and silent trains People carrying private pain Concrete dreams fade into rain Still they keep walking just the same [Instrumental break: Delayed guitar accents with dub-style bass movement] [Chorus] We are borderline ghosts tonight Walking under fractured lights Searching for a place called home Through these streets we walk alone We are borderline ghosts tonight Lost between the dark and light Hear the distant engines cry Like unanswered lullabies [Verse] Old newspapers drift away Stories vanish day by day Voices caught inside the noise Children growing without choice Shadows gather near the walls No one hears the warning calls Windows stare with vacant eyes Watching another sunrise die [Instrumental tension: Sparse drum hits with rising ambient textures] [Bridge] No maps left to guide our way No promises remain to save Only footprints in the dust Only things we couldn't trust (Distant voices) Keep moving Keep moving [Chorus] We are borderline ghosts tonight Walking under fractured lights Searching for a place called home Through these streets we walk alone We are borderline ghosts tonight Lost between the dark and light Hear the distant engines cry Like unanswered lullabies [Outro: Fading bass pulse with echoed guitar harmonics] Smoke and shadows disappear Morning comes but no one's here [end]
