Lyrics — Lunar Debt
The voltage drops when memory persists
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
The radio plays songs from someone else
He trades his coat for silence and a key
She folds the map and drives without a name
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
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
