Lyrics — Neon Cathedral
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
He trades his coat for silence and a key
She folds the map and drives without a name
A compass spins inside a locked museum
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The voltage drops when memory persists
