Lyrics — Velvet Rust
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
She writes her will in disappearing ink
She folds the map and drives without a name
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
She writes her will in disappearing ink
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
