Lyrics — Phantom Meridian
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
The voltage drops when memory persists
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The radio plays songs from someone else
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
