Discography

Lyrics — Hollow Crown

A satellite receives but won't respond

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

A telescope aimed at an empty chair

She folds the map and drives without a name

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake

The voltage drops when memory persists

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

Rust collects where fingerprints should be

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
