Lyrics — Velvet Rust
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
She folds the map and drives without a name
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
A compass spins inside a locked museum
A compass spins inside a locked museum
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
