Lyrics — Crimson Theorem
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
A satellite receives but won't respond
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
He trades his coat for silence and a key
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
A satellite receives but won't respond
The voltage drops when memory persists
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
