Lyrics — Velvet Rust
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
She writes her will in disappearing ink
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
She writes her will in disappearing ink
She writes her will in disappearing ink
She folds the map and drives without a name
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
