Lyrics — Ghost Protocol
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
The voltage drops when memory persists
The voltage drops when memory persists
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
A compass spins inside a locked museum
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
