Discography

Lyrics — Amber Frequency

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake

She writes her will in disappearing ink

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

The radio plays songs from someone else

A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist

A compass spins inside a locked museum

Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south

A satellite receives but won't respond

Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
