Lyrics — Static Bloom
The voltage drops when memory persists
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
The radio plays songs from someone else
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
A satellite receives but won't respond
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
