Discography

Lyrics — Amber Frequency

The voltage drops when memory persists

The radio plays songs from someone else

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

A satellite receives but won't respond

A telescope aimed at an empty chair

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
