Lyrics — Signal Decay
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
She writes her will in disappearing ink
The voltage drops when memory persists
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
