Lyrics — Crimson Theorem
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
He trades his coat for silence and a key
