Lyrics — Velvet Rust
A compass spins inside a locked museum
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
She folds the map and drives without a name
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
The voltage drops when memory persists
The radio plays songs from someone else
