Discography

Lyrics — Static Bloom

The voltage drops when memory persists

A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist

A satellite receives but won't respond

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

She writes her will in disappearing ink

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

He trades his coat for silence and a key

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake
