Lyrics — Obsidian Lullaby
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
A satellite receives but won't respond
The radio plays songs from someone else
The voltage drops when memory persists
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
She writes her will in disappearing ink
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
She folds the map and drives without a name
