Lyrics — Obsidian Lullaby
The voltage drops when memory persists
A satellite receives but won't respond
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
A compass spins inside a locked museum
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
She writes her will in disappearing ink
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
She writes her will in disappearing ink
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
A satellite receives but won't respond
The voltage drops when memory persists
