Lyrics — Obsidian Lullaby
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The radio plays songs from someone else
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
She writes her will in disappearing ink
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
The radio plays songs from someone else
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
