Lyrics — Obsidian Lullaby
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The radio plays songs from someone else
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
She writes her will in disappearing ink
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The radio plays songs from someone else
A compass spins inside a locked museum
