00:00The pen holds the dream, pristine and divine
00:11The pavement's the truth, the crooked hard line
00:15Is the space in between where the two intertwine
00:19An old voice cracks like the vinyls hiss
00:26The city breathes stories if you just sit and listen
00:29A faint piano loops like a thog that won't quit
