Lyrics — Iron Petals
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
The voltage drops when memory persists
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
She folds the map and drives without a name
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
The radio plays songs from someone else
