Lyrics — Signal Decay
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
She folds the map and drives without a name
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
She writes her will in disappearing ink
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
