Discography

Lyrics — Obsidian Lullaby

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold

Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south

The radio plays songs from someone else

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

She folds the map and drives without a name

She writes her will in disappearing ink

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

A compass spins inside a locked museum

She folds the map and drives without a name

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
