Lyrics — Iron Petals
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
A satellite receives but won't respond
She folds the map and drives without a name
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
He trades his coat for silence and a key
