Lyrics — Signal Decay
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
She writes her will in disappearing ink
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
She folds the map and drives without a name
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
