Discography

Lyrics — Iron Petals

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south

He trades his coat for silence and a key

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene

A telescope aimed at an empty chair

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay

A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain

The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene
