Lyrics — Hollow Crown
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
A satellite receives but won't respond
A satellite receives but won't respond
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
