Lyrics — Ghost Protocol
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The radio plays songs from someone else
The radio plays songs from someone else
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
She folds the map and drives without a name
The voltage drops when memory persists
She folds the map and drives without a name
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
