Lyrics — Neon Cathedral
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
She writes her will in disappearing ink
The radio plays songs from someone else
A compass spins inside a locked museum
She folds the map and drives without a name
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
A satellite receives but won't respond
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
She folds the map and drives without a name
She folds the map and drives without a name
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
She writes her will in disappearing ink
