Lyrics — Phantom Meridian
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
A compass spins inside a locked museum
A compass spins inside a locked museum
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
She writes her will in disappearing ink
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
