Lyrics — Crimson Theorem
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
The radio plays songs from someone else
A satellite receives but won't respond
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
She folds the map and drives without a name
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
A satellite receives but won't respond
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
She writes her will in disappearing ink
