Discography

Lyrics — Signal Decay

The radio plays songs from someone else

The garden grows in monochrome and ash

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold

She writes her will in disappearing ink

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

A telescope aimed at an empty chair
