Lyrics — Iron Petals
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The voltage drops when memory persists
A satellite receives but won't respond
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
A satellite receives but won't respond
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
