Discography

Lyrics — Lunar Debt

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake

A satellite receives but won't respond

The voltage drops when memory persists

The radio plays songs from someone else

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

A satellite receives but won't respond

The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene

She writes her will in disappearing ink

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south

A telescope aimed at an empty chair
