Lyrics — Neon Cathedral
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The radio plays songs from someone else
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
A satellite receives but won't respond
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
