Discography

Lyrics — Lunar Debt

Rust collects where fingerprints should be

A telescope aimed at an empty chair

A satellite receives but won't respond

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

She writes her will in disappearing ink

A satellite receives but won't respond

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
