Lyrics — Amber Frequency
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
She writes her will in disappearing ink
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
A compass spins inside a locked museum
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
The radio plays songs from someone else
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
He trades his coat for silence and a key
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
