Discography

Lyrics — Phantom Meridian

The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene

The garden grows in monochrome and ash

A satellite receives but won't respond

A satellite receives but won't respond

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

A satellite receives but won't respond

The radio plays songs from someone else

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

She folds the map and drives without a name

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist

The voltage drops when memory persists
