Lyrics — Ghost Protocol
The radio plays songs from someone else
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
He trades his coat for silence and a key
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
The radio plays songs from someone else
She folds the map and drives without a name
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
