Lyrics — Signal Decay
She folds the map and drives without a name
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
She folds the map and drives without a name
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
A compass spins inside a locked museum
A compass spins inside a locked museum
The radio plays songs from someone else
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
