Lyrics — Amber Frequency
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
A satellite receives but won't respond
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
