Lyrics — Crimson Theorem
A compass spins inside a locked museum
She folds the map and drives without a name
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
He trades his coat for silence and a key
She writes her will in disappearing ink
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The radio plays songs from someone else
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
A compass spins inside a locked museum
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The radio plays songs from someone else
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
