Discography

Lyrics — Amber Frequency

He trades his coat for silence and a key

A compass spins inside a locked museum

The voltage drops when memory persists

A satellite receives but won't respond

Between the lines the ink starts bleeding south

The voltage drops when memory persists

A compass spins inside a locked museum

The garden grows in monochrome and ash

The harbour lights dissolve in kerosene

Neon signs spell out a borrowed prayer
