Lyrics — Lunar Debt
The radio plays songs from someone else
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
A compass spins inside a locked museum
A satellite receives but won't respond
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
She folds the map and drives without a name
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
