Lyrics — Signal Decay
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The radio plays songs from someone else
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
She folds the map and drives without a name
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
He trades his coat for silence and a key
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
The voltage drops when memory persists
She writes her will in disappearing ink
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
