Lyrics — Amber Frequency
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
The voltage drops when memory persists
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
The voltage drops when memory persists
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
She folds the map and drives without a name
She folds the map and drives without a name
