Lyrics — Hollow Crown
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
She writes her will in disappearing ink
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
She writes her will in disappearing ink
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
He trades his coat for silence and a key
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
He trades his coat for silence and a key
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
