Lyrics — Hollow Crown
She writes her will in disappearing ink
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
A satellite receives but won't respond
The voltage drops when memory persists
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The voltage drops when memory persists
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
