Lyrics — Crimson Theorem
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
She writes her will in disappearing ink
She folds the map and drives without a name
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The radio plays songs from someone else
