Lyrics — Neon Cathedral
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
A compass spins inside a locked museum
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
She folds the map and drives without a name
A compass spins inside a locked museum
She writes her will in disappearing ink
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
