Discography

Lyrics — Obsidian Lullaby

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold

He trades his coat for silence and a key

A satellite receives but won't respond

She writes her will in disappearing ink

Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

She folds the map and drives without a name

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
