Lyrics — Phantom Meridian
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
The voltage drops when memory persists
A compass spins inside a locked museum
