Lyrics — Signal Decay
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
She writes her will in disappearing ink
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
She writes her will in disappearing ink
He trades his coat for silence and a key
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
She folds the map and drives without a name
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
