Lyrics — Lunar Debt
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
He trades his coat for silence and a key
A compass spins inside a locked museum
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
The radio plays songs from someone else
A satellite receives but won't respond
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
A compass spins inside a locked museum
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
A compass spins inside a locked museum
The radio plays songs from someone else
