Lyrics — Hollow Crown
A compass spins inside a locked museum
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
He trades his coat for silence and a key
A compass spins inside a locked museum
