Lyrics — Static Bloom
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
A compass spins inside a locked museum
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
