Discography

Lyrics — Velvet Rust

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

A telescope aimed at an empty chair

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

The garden grows in monochrome and ash

The garden grows in monochrome and ash

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
