Discography

Lyrics — Iron Petals

The radio plays songs from someone else

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

She writes her will in disappearing ink

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

Rust collects where fingerprints should be

Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south

She folds the map and drives without a name

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

A compass spins inside a locked museum

Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south

She folds the map and drives without a name

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold
