Lyrics — Lunar Debt
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
She folds the map and drives without a name
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
