Lyrics — Lunar Debt
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
He trades his coat for silence and a key
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
A satellite receives but won't respond
