Lyrics — Phantom Meridian
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The radio plays songs from someone else
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The radio plays songs from someone else
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
The radio plays songs from someone else
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
She folds the map and drives without a name
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The voltage drops when memory persists
The voltage drops when memory persists
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
