Lyrics — Obsidian Lullaby
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
He trades his coat for silence and a key
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
A compass spins inside a locked museum
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
