Lyrics — Ghost Protocol
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
A compass spins inside a locked museum
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
She writes her will in disappearing ink
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
