Lyrics — Signal Decay
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
A compass spins inside a locked museum
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
The radio plays songs from someone else
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
