Lyrics — Hollow Crown
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
She writes her will in disappearing ink
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
A compass spins inside a locked museum
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
