Discography

Lyrics — Crimson Theorem

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south

Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold

A telescope aimed at an empty chair

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

The garden grows in monochrome and ash

She writes her will in disappearing ink

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

He trades his coat for silence and a key

A satellite receives but won't respond

The radio plays songs from someone else

She folds the map and drives without a name

A compass spins inside a locked museum
