Lyrics — Phantom Meridian
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The radio plays songs from someone else
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
She folds the map and drives without a name
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
She writes her will in disappearing ink
She writes her will in disappearing ink
