Lyrics — Velvet Rust
A compass spins inside a locked museum
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
