Lyrics — Signal Decay
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
A compass spins inside a locked museum
A satellite receives but won't respond
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
A compass spins inside a locked museum
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
