Lyrics — Velvet Rust
She folds the map and drives without a name
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
She folds the map and drives without a name
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
The radio plays songs from someone else
The radio plays songs from someone else
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
