Discography

Lyrics — Ghost Protocol

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene

The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene

The radio plays songs from someone else

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

He trades his coat for silence and a key

The voltage drops when memory persists

A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist

The radio plays songs from someone else

The garden grows in monochrome and ash

A telescope aimed at an empty chair

She writes her will in disappearing ink

The garden grows in monochrome and ash
