Lyrics — Crimson Theorem
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
She writes her will in disappearing ink
He trades his coat for silence and a key
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
The voltage drops when memory persists
A satellite receives but won't respond
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
She writes her will in disappearing ink
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
