Lyrics — Signal Decay
He trades his coat for silence and a key
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
The radio plays songs from someone else
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The radio plays songs from someone else
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
She writes her will in disappearing ink
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
He trades his coat for silence and a key
