Lyrics — Obsidian Lullaby
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
The radio plays songs from someone else
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
He trades his coat for silence and a key
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
A satellite receives but won't respond
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
She folds the map and drives without a name
She writes her will in disappearing ink
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
A satellite receives but won't respond
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
