Discography

Lyrics — Amber Frequency

A telescope aimed at an empty chair

Rust collects where fingerprints should be

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake

The garden grows in monochrome and ash

The garden grows in monochrome and ash

He trades his coat for silence and a key

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

The voltage drops when memory persists

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

She writes her will in disappearing ink

He trades his coat for silence and a key
