Lyrics — Iron Petals
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
The voltage drops when memory persists
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
She folds the map and drives without a name
She folds the map and drives without a name
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
She folds the map and drives without a name
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
