Discography

Lyrics — Obsidian Lullaby

The garden grows in monochrome and ash

The radio plays songs from someone else

A satellite receives but won't respond

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south

She folds the map and drives without a name

He trades his coat for silence and a key

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
