Discography

Lyrics — Iron Petals

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

A compass spins inside a locked museum

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

A compass spins inside a locked museum

The voltage drops when memory persists

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

A telescope aimed at an empty chair

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake

She folds the map and drives without a name

The radio plays songs from someone else

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
