Lyrics — Iron Petals
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
He trades his coat for silence and a key
A compass spins inside a locked museum
A compass spins inside a locked museum
She writes her will in disappearing ink
The voltage drops when memory persists
The radio plays songs from someone else
She writes her will in disappearing ink
A compass spins inside a locked museum
She folds the map and drives without a name
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
