Lyrics — Iron Petals
A compass spins inside a locked museum
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
