Lyrics — Velvet Rust
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The radio plays songs from someone else
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The radio plays songs from someone else
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
She folds the map and drives without a name
