Lyrics: The archive burns beneath the street With paper lungs and blackened teeth I found your file in cabinet three Marked with a year that buried me The clerks have eyes like frozen glass They stamp my name and turn away I signed the form with shaking hands Then watched my shadow fade to grey Page by page Ash by ash What we saved Could not last A basement fan keeps turning slow Above the rows of silent proof Each folder smells like rain and dust Each sentence cuts a hidden truth Your picture falls from carbon sheets A face the fire could not erase I hold it close against my coat And lose myself in every trace Seal my heart in the black archive Lock my voice behind the wall I was written in a broken hand And erased before the fall Seal my heart in the black archive Let the records feed the flame If the morning asks about me Tell it I forgot my name The elevators never rise They only sink through colder floors I hear typewriters in the dark Like insects trapped behind the doors A woman speaks through copper pipes She says the past was never kind I follow her through numbered halls And leave my better self behind Page by page Ash by ash What we saved Could not last Seal my heart in the black archive Lock my voice behind the wall I was written in a broken hand And erased before the fall Seal my heart in the black archive Let the records feed the flame If the morning asks about me Tell it I forgot my name There is a room without a number There is a desk without a chair There is a drawer that keeps on opening Though nothing waits in there I place your picture in the fire I watch the edges glow The smoke becomes a doorway But I do not want to go Seal my heart in the black archive Lock my voice behind the wall I was written in a broken hand And erased before the fall Seal my heart in the black archive Let the records feed the flame If the morning asks about me Tell it I forgot my name The archive burns beneath the street The ink runs down like rain I leave your file open And never sign again --- Sounds from the streets of Copenhagen, made for your everyday soundtrack.
