Discography

Lyrics — Signal Decay

She folds the map and drives without a name

Rust collects where fingerprints should be

A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist

The floorboards creak in dialects of cold

A satellite receives but won't respond

A compass spins inside a locked museum

The ceiling drips with questions left on read

Counting shadows on the basement stairs

The radio plays songs from someone else
