Lyrics — Signal Decay
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The radio plays songs from someone else
She folds the map and drives without a name
A compass spins inside a locked museum
He trades his coat for silence and a key
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
She writes her will in disappearing ink
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
She writes her will in disappearing ink
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
