Lyrics — Lunar Debt
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
She folds the map and drives without a name
A satellite receives but won't respond
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
