Lyrics — Velvet Rust
The voltage drops when memory persists
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The radio plays songs from someone else
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
A satellite receives but won't respond
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
She writes her will in disappearing ink
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
