Lyrics — Amber Frequency
A satellite receives but won't respond
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
She writes her will in disappearing ink
The voltage drops when memory persists
A satellite receives but won't respond
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
The voltage drops when memory persists
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
She folds the map and drives without a name
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
