Discography

Lyrics — Phantom Meridian

A compass spins inside a locked museum

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

A telescope aimed at an empty chair

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

The garden grows in monochrome and ash

A satellite receives but won't respond

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake

She folds the map and drives without a name

Rust collects where fingerprints should be
