Lyrics — Obsidian Lullaby
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
A satellite receives but won't respond
The voltage drops when memory persists
The radio plays songs from someone else
A satellite receives but won't respond
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
A compass spins inside a locked museum
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
