Lyrics — Velvet Rust
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
A satellite receives but won't respond
A satellite receives but won't respond
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The radio plays songs from someone else
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
She writes her will in disappearing ink
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
