Lyrics — Phantom Meridian
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
The radio plays songs from someone else
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
A satellite receives but won't respond
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
He trades his coat for silence and a key
