Lyrics — Signal Decay
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
She writes her will in disappearing ink
A compass spins inside a locked museum
The voltage drops when memory persists
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The voltage drops when memory persists
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
A compass spins inside a locked museum
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The radio plays songs from someone else
A compass spins inside a locked museum
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
