Lyrics — Amber Frequency
The radio plays songs from someone else
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
The ceiling drips with questions left on read

The ceiling drips with questions left on read
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
