From the recording Belgian Soundscape – Sick Days and Solitude
Lyrics
In Brussels' streets, I walked alone
The echoes of the city, a quiet tone
From every corner, tales unfold
January's chill, stories to be told
Countdown to Brussels, the days unwind
In every heartbeat, a journey defined
Racing the clock on my way to go
Brussels-bound and it's time to show
Papers ready, bags in tow
Missing sleep, you know it's so
Every hurdle, every twist
Can't slow down, it's on my list
Countdown to Brussels, rushing along
Alarms are blazing, can't do wrong
Countdown to Brussels, feel the drive
Pedal down, now let's arrive
Train's leaving, don't dare delay
City lights are guiding the way
From dusk till dawn, no time to play
Caffeine high, bright and stray
Through the narrow streets we race
No time to waste, feel the pace
Countdown to Brussels, rushing along
Alarms are blazing, can't do wrong
Countdown to Brussels, feel the drive
Pedal down, now let's arrive
Every corner, every breeze
Masks the panic, sets me free
Rushing fast and wild with speed
In Brussels, I'll make my creed
Countdown to Brussels, rushing along
Alarms are blazing, can't do wrong
Countdown to Brussels, feel the drive
Pedal down, now let's arrive
Rushing down the avenue
Clock ticking, not a moment to lose
Luggage packed, heart on fire
Got my sights set higher
Adrenaline in my veins
It's a runaway, runaway train
Countdown to Brussels
Feeling the hustle
Time won't wait
It's a frantic race
Echoes of car horns ring
Streetlights blur like restless dreams
I'm dodging chaos on the street
My steps match the city's beat
Lost in a maze of urgency
Racing through eternity
Countdown to Brussels
Feeling the hustle
Time won't wait
It's a frantic race
Every second counts in this chase
Got a longing grin across my face
Through alienation, the triumph grows
Driven by dreams only I know
Countdown to Brussels
Feeling the hustle
Time won't wait
It's a frantic race
