Discography

Lyrics — Velvet Rust

A compass spins inside a locked museum

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

He trades his coat for silence and a key

Rust collects where fingerprints should be

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

She folds the map and drives without a name
