Lyrics — Iron Petals
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
She writes her will in disappearing ink
She folds the map and drives without a name
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
