Discography

Lyrics — Lunar Debt

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist

Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold

A telescope aimed at an empty chair

The radio plays songs from someone else

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

A compass spins inside a locked museum

Rust collects where fingerprints should be

The voltage drops when memory persists

The voltage drops when memory persists

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
