Discography

Lyrics — Neon Cathedral

A telescope aimed at an empty chair

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold

She writes her will in disappearing ink

She writes her will in disappearing ink

The radio plays songs from someone else

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

A telescope aimed at an empty chair

The voltage drops when memory persists

A telescope aimed at an empty chair

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

The garden grows in monochrome and ash

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
