Lyrics — Hollow Crown
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The voltage drops when memory persists
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
The radio plays songs from someone else
The radio plays songs from someone else
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
She writes her will in disappearing ink
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
The radio plays songs from someone else
A compass spins inside a locked museum
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
