Lyrics — Iron Petals
He trades his coat for silence and a key
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The radio plays songs from someone else
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
The voltage drops when memory persists
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
She folds the map and drives without a name
