Discography

Lyrics — Amber Frequency

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold

A telescope aimed at an empty chair

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

The ceiling drips with questions left on read
