Discography

Lyrics — Signal Decay

Rust collects where fingerprints should be

The radio plays songs from someone else

The garden grows in monochrome and ash

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

A satellite receives but won't respond

The radio plays songs from someone else

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
