Discography

Lyrics — Signal Decay

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

A satellite receives but won't respond

A telescope aimed at an empty chair

A compass spins inside a locked museum

Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene

She folds the map and drives without a name

The garden grows in monochrome and ash

The radio plays songs from someone else

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold

Rust collects where fingerprints should be

Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
