Discography

Lyrics — Crimson Theorem

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

A compass spins inside a locked museum

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

The voltage drops when memory persists

The voltage drops when memory persists

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

The radio plays songs from someone else

A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist

A satellite receives but won't respond

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
