Discography

Lyrics — Neon Cathedral

Rust collects where fingerprints should be

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

Rust collects where fingerprints should be

A satellite receives but won't respond

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist

Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

Rust collects where fingerprints should be

A compass spins inside a locked museum

The voltage drops when memory persists
