Lyrics — Iron Petals
She folds the map and drives without a name
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
A compass spins inside a locked museum
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
A compass spins inside a locked museum
A satellite receives but won't respond
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
