Lyrics — Phantom Meridian
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
The voltage drops when memory persists
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
She writes her will in disappearing ink
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
A satellite receives but won't respond
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
The radio plays songs from someone else
She folds the map and drives without a name
