Lyrics — Ghost Protocol
A compass spins inside a locked museum
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
She folds the map and drives without a name
