Lyrics — Velvet Rust
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
A satellite receives but won't respond
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
She folds the map and drives without a name
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
The radio plays songs from someone else
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
