Lyrics — Velvet Rust
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
The voltage drops when memory persists
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
She writes her will in disappearing ink
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
The radio plays songs from someone else
She folds the map and drives without a name
She writes her will in disappearing ink
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
A satellite receives but won't respond
The radio plays songs from someone else
She folds the map and drives without a name
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
