Lyrics — Velvet Rust
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
A satellite receives but won't respond
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
A satellite receives but won't respond
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
