Lyrics — Signal Decay
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
A satellite receives but won't respond
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
