Lyrics — Crimson Theorem
She writes her will in disappearing ink
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
The voltage drops when memory persists
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
A satellite receives but won't respond
The voltage drops when memory persists
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
He trades his coat for silence and a key
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
The voltage drops when memory persists
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
