Lyrics — Hollow Crown
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
She folds the map and drives without a name
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
A compass spins inside a locked museum
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
He trades his coat for silence and a key
