Discography

Lyrics — Lunar Debt

The garden grows in monochrome and ash

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

He trades his coat for silence and a key

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

The radio plays songs from someone else

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake

A satellite receives but won't respond

Rust collects where fingerprints should be
