Lyrics — Hollow Crown
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
She folds the map and drives without a name
A satellite receives but won't respond
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
A satellite receives but won't respond
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
She writes her will in disappearing ink
He trades his coat for silence and a key
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
A satellite receives but won't respond
The radio plays songs from someone else
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
