Lyrics — Ghost Protocol
The voltage drops when memory persists
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
A compass spins inside a locked museum
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
He trades his coat for silence and a key
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
She folds the map and drives without a name
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
A compass spins inside a locked museum
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
