Lyrics — Static Bloom
A satellite receives but won't respond
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
A compass spins inside a locked museum
The radio plays songs from someone else
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
The voltage drops when memory persists
