Lyrics — Neon Cathedral
A compass spins inside a locked museum
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
A satellite receives but won't respond
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
She writes her will in disappearing ink
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
The radio plays songs from someone else
