[Verse 1] At the corner by the station Where the evening crowd pours through I play beneath the shuttered shops This old guitar keeps humming Its finish worn away And though most faces pass me by A few still stop and stay [Chorus] This patch of pavement’s mine tonight These songs keep me warm When the wind cuts through my coat And the rain begins to fall Somewhere in the rush of strangers A voice might sing along And for a minute we belong Inside the same old song [Verse 2] The last train’s running late A little girl spins circles While her father stands and waits A handful of loose silver Rattles softly in my case It’s not much, but it’s enough To help me face another day [Chorus] This patch of pavement’s mine tonight These songs keep me warm When the wind cuts through my coat And the rain begins to fall Somewhere in the rush of strangers A voice might sing along And for a minute we belong Inside the same old song [Bridge] After midnight, when it’s quiet I hear the notes still ringing Like they never left the air I think about the years gone by The roads that brought me here And every tune I’ve carried Through the doubt and through the fear [Instrumental Break] [Long synth] [synth arpeggios] [Final Chorus] This patch of pavement’s mine tonight These songs keep me warm When the wind cuts through my coat And the rain begins to fall Somewhere in the rush of strangers A voice might sing along And for a minute we belong Inside the same old song [Outro] So tomorrow I’ll be back again Chasing something hard to name And if you hear me down the road Just know I’m doing fine Still finding bits of myself Between these strings and passing time © 2026 Project ∞X.
