Lyrics — Ghost Protocol
The voltage drops when memory persists
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
She folds the map and drives without a name
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
She folds the map and drives without a name
He trades his coat for silence and a key
She writes her will in disappearing ink
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
A compass spins inside a locked museum
She folds the map and drives without a name
