Discography

Lyrics — Crimson Theorem

Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south

The garden grows in monochrome and ash

A compass spins inside a locked museum

The voltage drops when memory persists

A satellite receives but won't respond
