Achilleios[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Steel wheels hummin’ ‘neath the moon’s last glow,
Coffee cold, engine grumbles, we roll slow.
Alley cats scatter, streetlights flicker low,
Clank of the compactor, rhythm we all know.
[Chorus]
Driftin’ with the trash, chasin’ yesterday’s debris,
Bags and broken dreams piled high behind me.
City’s dirty secrets, we sweep ‘em out of sight,
Keepin’ the concrete clean till the morning light.
[Verse 2]
Rusty bins whisper tales of the week’s decay,
Half-eaten pizza, bills no one chose to pay.
Joe whistles Hank, I hum a tired tune,
Our symphony of clatter beneath a drowsy moon.
[Chorus]
Driftin’ with the trash, chasin’ yesterday’s debris,
Bags and broken dreams piled high behind me.
City’s dirty secrets, we sweep ‘em out of sight,
Keepin’ the concrete clean till the morning light.
[Bridge]
They say one man’s junk’s another’s gold,
But we just haul what the curbside told.
Ain’t no heroes in reflector vests,
Just hands that work while the world rests.
[Chorus]
Driftin’ with the trash, chasin’ yesterday’s debris,
Bags and broken dreams piled high behind me.
City’s dirty secrets, we sweep ‘em out of sight,
Keepin’ the concrete clean till the morning light.
[Outro]
