Discography

Lyrics — Phantom Meridian

The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

She writes her will in disappearing ink

He trades his coat for silence and a key

Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south

The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene

A satellite receives but won't respond

A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

The voltage drops when memory persists

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

A compass spins inside a locked museum

Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south

A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
