Lyrics — Phantom Meridian
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The radio plays songs from someone else
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
A satellite receives but won't respond
