Lyrics — Ghost Protocol
The radio plays songs from someone else
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
A satellite receives but won't respond
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
He trades his coat for silence and a key
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
