Lyrics — Amber Frequency
He trades his coat for silence and a key
A compass spins inside a locked museum
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
The voltage drops when memory persists
A satellite receives but won't respond
The voltage drops when memory persists
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
A satellite receives but won't respond
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
