Lyrics — Velvet Rust
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
A compass spins inside a locked museum
