Discography

Lyrics — Neon Cathedral

She writes her will in disappearing ink

The radio plays songs from someone else

Rust collects where fingerprints should be

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

A satellite receives but won't respond

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
