Discography

Lyrics — Amber Frequency

The garden grows in monochrome and ash

Rust collects where fingerprints should be

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist

The voltage drops when memory persists

He trades his coat for silence and a key

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

Counting shadows on the basement stairs
