Lyrics — Hollow Crown
The voltage drops when memory persists
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
A compass spins inside a locked museum
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
She folds the map and drives without a name
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
A compass spins inside a locked museum
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
