Discography

Lyrics — Ghost Protocol

He trades his coat for silence and a key

She folds the map and drives without a name

He trades his coat for silence and a key

Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

The voltage drops when memory persists

The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene

Counting shadows on the basement stairs
