Discography

Lyrics — Crimson Theorem

She folds the map and drives without a name

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

The voltage drops when memory persists

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold

The garden grows in monochrome and ash

A telescope aimed at an empty chair

A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

A compass spins inside a locked museum
