Discography

Lyrics — Lunar Debt

A compass spins inside a locked museum

She folds the map and drives without a name

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

The radio plays songs from someone else

He trades his coat for silence and a key

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

He trades his coat for silence and a key

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

The radio plays songs from someone else
