Discography

Lyrics — Obsidian Lullaby

She folds the map and drives without a name

Rust collects where fingerprints should be

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

A telescope aimed at an empty chair

A compass spins inside a locked museum

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

He trades his coat for silence and a key

He trades his coat for silence and a key

A compass spins inside a locked museum

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

She folds the map and drives without a name

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

The radio plays songs from someone else
