Lyrics — Neon Cathedral
She folds the map and drives without a name
She writes her will in disappearing ink
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
He trades his coat for silence and a key
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
