Lyrics — Crimson Theorem
She folds the map and drives without a name
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
A satellite receives but won't respond
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
The radio plays songs from someone else
She writes her will in disappearing ink
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The radio plays songs from someone else
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
