Lyrics — Ghost Protocol
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
She folds the map and drives without a name
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
She writes her will in disappearing ink
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The voltage drops when memory persists
She folds the map and drives without a name
The radio plays songs from someone else
