Discography

Lyrics — Iron Petals

Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south

Rust collects where fingerprints should be

He trades his coat for silence and a key

The radio plays songs from someone else

The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

The voltage drops when memory persists

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

The radio plays songs from someone else

The garden grows in monochrome and ash
