Lyrics — Lunar Debt
The radio plays songs from someone else
A satellite receives but won't respond
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
A satellite receives but won't respond
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
The voltage drops when memory persists
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
