Lyrics — Phantom Meridian
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
She writes her will in disappearing ink
The radio plays songs from someone else
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
The radio plays songs from someone else
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
The voltage drops when memory persists
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
