Discography

Lyrics — Signal Decay

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake

The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake

A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

A compass spins inside a locked museum

A compass spins inside a locked museum

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
