Lyrics — Amber Frequency
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
A compass spins inside a locked museum
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
She writes her will in disappearing ink
She writes her will in disappearing ink
She writes her will in disappearing ink
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
