Lyrics — Iron Petals
A compass spins inside a locked museum
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
She writes her will in disappearing ink
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
He trades his coat for silence and a key
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
The voltage drops when memory persists
