Discography

Lyrics — Signal Decay

Rust collects where fingerprints should be

A telescope aimed at an empty chair

The wires hum beneath the frozen lake

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold

A compass spins inside a locked museum

He trades his coat for silence and a key

A compass spins inside a locked museum

The garden grows in monochrome and ash

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer

A telescope aimed at an empty chair

The voltage drops when memory persists

She folds the map and drives without a name

She folds the map and drives without a name

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
