Discography

Lyrics — Neon Cathedral

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold

Rust collects where fingerprints should be

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene

She folds the map and drives without a name

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

She writes her will in disappearing ink

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
