Lyrics — Crimson Theorem
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
A satellite receives but won't respond
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The radio plays songs from someone else
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The radio plays songs from someone else
A satellite receives but won't respond
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
