Lyrics — Velvet Rust
The radio plays songs from someone else
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The radio plays songs from someone else
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
She writes her will in disappearing ink
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
The voltage drops when memory persists
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
