Lyrics — Crimson Theorem
The radio plays songs from someone else
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
A compass spins inside a locked museum
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
