Lyrics — Static Bloom
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
A satellite receives but won't respond
The radio plays songs from someone else
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
She folds the map and drives without a name
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
The voltage drops when memory persists
