Discography

Lyrics — Hollow Crown

A telescope aimed at an empty chair

The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

A compass spins inside a locked museum

The radio plays songs from someone else

A telescope aimed at an empty chair

She writes her will in disappearing ink

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
