Lyrics — Static Bloom
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
The voltage drops when memory persists
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
A compass spins inside a locked museum
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
The radio plays songs from someone else
She folds the map and drives without a name
