Lyrics — Crimson Theorem
The voltage drops when memory persists
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
A compass spins inside a locked museum
The radio plays songs from someone else
A compass spins inside a locked museum
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
She folds the map and drives without a name
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
