Lyrics — Signal Decay
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
The voltage drops when memory persists
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
She folds the map and drives without a name
She writes her will in disappearing ink
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
She folds the map and drives without a name
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
A satellite receives but won't respond
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
