Lyrics — Hollow Crown
She writes her will in disappearing ink
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
The radio plays songs from someone else
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
The voltage drops when memory persists
A compass spins inside a locked museum
