Lyrics — Obsidian Lullaby
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
A compass spins inside a locked museum
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
The voltage drops when memory persists
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
