Lyrics — Signal Decay
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
She folds the map and drives without a name
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
She folds the map and drives without a name
She writes her will in disappearing ink
The radio plays songs from someone else
The voltage drops when memory persists
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
A compass spins inside a locked museum
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
