Discography

Lyrics — Iron Petals

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

A compass spins inside a locked museum

A satellite receives but won't respond

She writes her will in disappearing ink

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

A satellite receives but won't respond

A satellite receives but won't respond

A satellite receives but won't respond

She writes her will in disappearing ink

A satellite receives but won't respond

A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist

Rust collects where fingerprints should be

A telescope aimed at an empty chair

He trades his coat for silence and a key
