Discography

Lyrics — Phantom Meridian

A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

A satellite receives but won't respond

A compass spins inside a locked museum

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

The radio plays songs from someone else

He trades his coat for silence and a key

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

She folds the map and drives without a name
