Lyrics — Lunar Debt
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
A satellite receives but won't respond
The voltage drops when memory persists
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
A satellite receives but won't respond
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
She writes her will in disappearing ink
