Discography

Lyrics — Ghost Protocol

Rust collects where fingerprints should be

She writes her will in disappearing ink

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake

A satellite receives but won't respond

She folds the map and drives without a name

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
