Lyrics — Iron Petals
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
She writes her will in disappearing ink

Counting shadows on the basement stairs
She writes her will in disappearing ink
He trades his coat for silence and a key
A satellite receives but won't respond
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
