Lyrics — Static Bloom
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
She folds the map and drives without a name
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
A satellite receives but won't respond
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
She folds the map and drives without a name
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
A satellite receives but won't respond
