Lyrics — Amber Frequency
The radio plays songs from someone else
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The radio plays songs from someone else
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
She folds the map and drives without a name
A telescope aimed at an empty chair
He trades his coat for silence and a key
