Lyrics — Velvet Rust
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
