Lyrics — Lunar Debt
The radio plays songs from someone else
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
A compass spins inside a locked museum
He trades his coat for silence and a key
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The radio plays songs from someone else
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
She writes her will in disappearing ink
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
A compass spins inside a locked museum
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The radio plays songs from someone else
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
