Discography

Lyrics — Crimson Theorem

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

She folds the map and drives without a name

The radio plays songs from someone else

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

A telescope aimed at an empty chair
