Discography

Lyrics — Velvet Rust

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

The garden grows in monochrome and ash

The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

A telescope aimed at an empty chair
