Lyrics — Amber Frequency
The garden grows in monochrome and ash
The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
A compass spins inside a locked museum
The radio plays songs from someone else
The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
She writes her will in disappearing ink
He trades his coat for silence and a key
Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
The voltage drops when memory persists
