Lyrics — Signal Decay
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
The voltage drops when memory persists
The voltage drops when memory persists
A compass spins inside a locked museum
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
She writes her will in disappearing ink
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
