Discography

Lyrics — Iron Petals

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

The garden grows in monochrome and ash

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake

Rust collects where fingerprints should be

She writes her will in disappearing ink

He trades his coat for silence and a key

The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

He trades his coat for silence and a key
