Lyrics — Neon Cathedral
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
She writes her will in disappearing ink
She folds the map and drives without a name
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
She writes her will in disappearing ink
A satellite receives but won't respond
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
A satellite receives but won't respond
A compass spins inside a locked museum
She writes her will in disappearing ink
