Lyrics — Signal Decay
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The voltage drops when memory persists
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
A satellite receives but won't respond
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
