Lyrics — Ghost Protocol
He trades his coat for silence and a key
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
The voltage drops when memory persists
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
She folds the map and drives without a name
The radio plays songs from someone else
She folds the map and drives without a name
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
The voltage drops when memory persists
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
