Discography

Lyrics — Neon Cathedral

The radio plays songs from someone else

The voltage drops when memory persists

A telescope aimed at an empty chair

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist

She writes her will in disappearing ink

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

He trades his coat for silence and a key

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

The voltage drops when memory persists

The ceiling drips with questions left on read
