Lyrics — Static Bloom
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
A satellite receives but won't respond
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
He trades his coat for silence and a key
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
She folds the map and drives without a name
