Discography

Lyrics — Lunar Debt

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

He trades his coat for silence and a key

She writes her will in disappearing ink

A compass spins inside a locked museum

The voltage drops when memory persists

The garden grows in monochrome and ash

She writes her will in disappearing ink

The radio plays songs from someone else

She folds the map and drives without a name

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

The garden grows in monochrome and ash

A satellite receives but won't respond

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold

The garden grows in monochrome and ash
