Lyrics — Velvet Rust
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
She folds the map and drives without a name
A compass spins inside a locked museum
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
