Lyrics — Static Bloom
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
A compass spins inside a locked museum
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
A compass spins inside a locked museum
The voltage drops when memory persists
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The radio plays songs from someone else
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
