Lyrics — Neon Cathedral
She folds the map and drives without a name
She folds the map and drives without a name
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
She writes her will in disappearing ink
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
She folds the map and drives without a name
A satellite receives but won't respond
She folds the map and drives without a name
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The radio plays songs from someone else
A compass spins inside a locked museum
