Lyrics — Phantom Meridian
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
The radio plays songs from someone else
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
She folds the map and drives without a name
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
