Discography

Lyrics — Amber Frequency

He trades his coat for silence and a key

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

The radio plays songs from someone else

A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist

A compass spins inside a locked museum

Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south

The radio plays songs from someone else

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

The ceiling drips with questions left on read
