Lyrics — Obsidian Lullaby
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
A compass spins inside a locked museum
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
He trades his coat for silence and a key
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The voltage drops when memory persists
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
A satellite receives but won't respond
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
