Discography

Lyrics — Signal Decay

A telescope aimed at an empty chair

Rust collects where fingerprints should be

The radio plays songs from someone else

Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake

The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene

She writes her will in disappearing ink

A compass spins inside a locked museum

The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene

The voltage drops when memory persists

The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene

Rust collects where fingerprints should be

A compass spins inside a locked museum
