Lyrics — Amber Frequency
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
She writes her will in disappearing ink
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The voltage drops when memory persists
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
A satellite receives but won't respond
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
