Discography

Lyrics — Hollow Crown

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake

A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist

Rust collects where fingerprints should be

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold

The garden grows in monochrome and ash

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold

He trades his coat for silence and a key

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
