Discography

Lyrics — Iron Petals

The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

She folds the map and drives without a name

A compass spins inside a locked museum

Rust collects where fingerprints should be

Rust collects where fingerprints should be

A satellite receives but won't respond

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

Rust collects where fingerprints should be

He trades his coat for silence and a key

Rust collects where fingerprints should be

A telescope aimed at an empty chair

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
