Lyrics — Iron Petals
A satellite receives but won't respond
A compass spins inside a locked museum
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
She folds the map and drives without a name
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
