Lyrics — Neon Cathedral
The radio plays songs from someone else
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
She folds the map and drives without a name
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
She folds the map and drives without a name
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
She folds the map and drives without a name
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The voltage drops when memory persists
