Lyrics — Ghost Protocol
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
She writes her will in disappearing ink
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
She writes her will in disappearing ink
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The radio plays songs from someone else
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
She writes her will in disappearing ink
She folds the map and drives without a name
She writes her will in disappearing ink
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
