Lyrics — Signal Decay
The radio plays songs from someone else
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
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
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
She folds the map and drives without a name
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The radio plays songs from someone else
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
