Discography

Lyrics — Ghost Protocol

The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

Rust collects where fingerprints should be

The voltage drops when memory persists

She folds the map and drives without a name

A compass spins inside a locked museum

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

A compass spins inside a locked museum

The voltage drops when memory persists

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

The radio plays songs from someone else

A satellite receives but won't respond
