Discography

Lyrics — Ghost Protocol

Rust collects where fingerprints should be

A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

A telescope aimed at an empty chair

Rust collects where fingerprints should be

She writes her will in disappearing ink

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold

A satellite receives but won't respond

She writes her will in disappearing ink

The radio plays songs from someone else

A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south

Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
