Lyrics — Neon Cathedral
The radio plays songs from someone else
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
She folds the map and drives without a name
A satellite receives but won't respond
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
