Lyrics — Crimson Theorem
She folds the map and drives without a name
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
The radio plays songs from someone else
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The radio plays songs from someone else
She folds the map and drives without a name
A compass spins inside a locked museum
The voltage drops when memory persists
The radio plays songs from someone else
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
