Discography

Lyrics — Lunar Debt

A telescope aimed at an empty chair

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake

The radio plays songs from someone else

The radio plays songs from someone else

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

She writes her will in disappearing ink

She folds the map and drives without a name

A satellite receives but won't respond

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold

A telescope aimed at an empty chair

Rust collects where fingerprints should be
