Lyrics — Obsidian Lullaby
The voltage drops when memory persists
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
