Lyrics — Crimson Theorem
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
A compass spins inside a locked museum
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
A compass spins inside a locked museum
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
The radio plays songs from someone else
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
