Lyrics — Crimson Theorem
The voltage drops when memory persists
She folds the map and drives without a name
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The radio plays songs from someone else
A satellite receives but won't respond
She writes her will in disappearing ink
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
A satellite receives but won't respond
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
