Discography

Lyrics — Lunar Debt

She folds the map and drives without a name

She writes her will in disappearing ink

The voltage drops when memory persists

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

A compass spins inside a locked museum

A telescope aimed at an empty chair

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

The radio plays songs from someone else
