Lyrics — Phantom Meridian
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
She folds the map and drives without a name
He trades his coat for silence and a key
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
