Lyrics — Signal Decay
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
He trades his coat for silence and a key
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
She writes her will in disappearing ink
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
He trades his coat for silence and a key
He trades his coat for silence and a key
She folds the map and drives without a name
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
