Lyrics — Velvet Rust
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
He trades his coat for silence and a key
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The radio plays songs from someone else
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The radio plays songs from someone else
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
He trades his coat for silence and a key
A compass spins inside a locked museum
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
A satellite receives but won't respond
