Discography

Lyrics — Iron Petals

The radio plays songs from someone else

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

A compass spins inside a locked museum

He trades his coat for silence and a key

A telescope aimed at an empty chair

A satellite receives but won't respond

She folds the map and drives without a name

The garden grows in monochrome and ash

Rust collects where fingerprints should be
