Discography

Lyrics — Amber Frequency

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

She folds the map and drives without a name

The garden grows in monochrome and ash

A satellite receives but won't respond

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold

She writes her will in disappearing ink

The ceiling drips with questions left on read
