Lyrics — Neon Cathedral
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
She folds the map and drives without a name
She writes her will in disappearing ink
A compass spins inside a locked museum
