Lyrics — Lunar Debt
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
A compass spins inside a locked museum
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
A compass spins inside a locked museum
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
