Discography

Lyrics — Static Bloom

Rust collects where fingerprints should be

The radio plays songs from someone else

A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

The radio plays songs from someone else

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

A compass spins inside a locked museum

She writes her will in disappearing ink

A telescope aimed at an empty chair

He trades his coat for silence and a key

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
