Discography

Lyrics — Phantom Meridian

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

She writes her will in disappearing ink

A satellite receives but won't respond

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

The garden grows in monochrome and ash

Rust collects where fingerprints should be

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

The garden grows in monochrome and ash

She folds the map and drives without a name
