Lyrics — Static Bloom
The radio plays songs from someone else
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
She folds the map and drives without a name
She writes her will in disappearing ink
The voltage drops when memory persists
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
A compass spins inside a locked museum
