Discography

Lyrics — Signal Decay

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

The radio plays songs from someone else

Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south

The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene

The radio plays songs from someone else

She writes her will in disappearing ink

Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south

He trades his coat for silence and a key

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
