Discography

Lyrics — Static Bloom

The voltage drops when memory persists

A telescope aimed at an empty chair

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

She writes her will in disappearing ink

A compass spins inside a locked museum

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

A satellite receives but won't respond
