Lyrics — Hollow Crown
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
She folds the map and drives without a name
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
