Lyrics — Signal Decay
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
She writes her will in disappearing ink
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The voltage drops when memory persists
A compass spins inside a locked museum
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
