Lyrics — Neon Cathedral
A satellite receives but won't respond
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
A compass spins inside a locked museum
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
The voltage drops when memory persists
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
She folds the map and drives without a name
A compass spins inside a locked museum
A compass spins inside a locked museum
She folds the map and drives without a name
