Discography

Lyrics — Hollow Crown

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold

The voltage drops when memory persists

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

She folds the map and drives without a name

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

A compass spins inside a locked museum

The voltage drops when memory persists

The ceiling drips with questions left on read
