Discography

Lyrics — Crimson Theorem

A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist

The voltage drops when memory persists

The voltage drops when memory persists

He trades his coat for silence and a key

A satellite receives but won't respond

A compass spins inside a locked museum

A satellite receives but won't respond

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

She writes her will in disappearing ink

A compass spins inside a locked museum

A satellite receives but won't respond

She folds the map and drives without a name

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

A telescope aimed at an empty chair
