Discography

Lyrics — Phantom Meridian

Rust collects where fingerprints should be

The garden grows in monochrome and ash

He trades his coat for silence and a key

The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene

Rust collects where fingerprints should be

The radio plays songs from someone else

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

She folds the map and drives without a name
