Lyrics — Phantom Meridian
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
A compass spins inside a locked museum
The voltage drops when memory persists
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The voltage drops when memory persists
He trades his coat for silence and a key
She writes her will in disappearing ink
