Lyrics — Phantom Meridian
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
A satellite receives but won't respond
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
