Lyrics — Iron Petals
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
