Lyrics — Lunar Debt
She folds the map and drives without a name
The radio plays songs from someone else
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
The radio plays songs from someone else
She folds the map and drives without a name
She folds the map and drives without a name
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
She folds the map and drives without a name
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
She writes her will in disappearing ink
