Lyrics — Amber Frequency
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
A satellite receives but won't respond
A satellite receives but won't respond
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
She folds the map and drives without a name
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
A satellite receives but won't respond
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
A satellite receives but won't respond
She writes her will in disappearing ink
