Lyrics — Static Bloom
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
A satellite receives but won't respond
The voltage drops when memory persists
