Lyrics — Crimson Theorem
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
A compass spins inside a locked museum
The voltage drops when memory persists
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
The voltage drops when memory persists
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
A compass spins inside a locked museum
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
