Lyrics — Static Bloom
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
A satellite receives but won't respond
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The radio plays songs from someone else
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The radio plays songs from someone else
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
She writes her will in disappearing ink
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
