Lyrics — Crimson Theorem
The radio plays songs from someone else
She writes her will in disappearing ink
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
The voltage drops when memory persists
A compass spins inside a locked museum
A satellite receives but won't respond
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
She folds the map and drives without a name
