Discography

Lyrics — Obsidian Lullaby

The radio plays songs from someone else

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

A compass spins inside a locked museum

She writes her will in disappearing ink

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

A telescope aimed at an empty chair

The voltage drops when memory persists

She folds the map and drives without a name

The voltage drops when memory persists

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
