Lyrics — Velvet Rust
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
The voltage drops when memory persists
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
She writes her will in disappearing ink
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
