Lyrics — Crimson Theorem
The voltage drops when memory persists
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
The radio plays songs from someone else
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
