Lyrics — Neon Cathedral
The voltage drops when memory persists
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
The radio plays songs from someone else
The voltage drops when memory persists
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
A compass spins inside a locked museum
A satellite receives but won't respond
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
He trades his coat for silence and a key
