Dying Light on Channel Nine

[Intro]
Static on the screen
Earth a quiet green dot
Alarms all asleep
Only we still talk
[Verse 1]
Suit hanging by the hatch
Dust on the mission patch
Voice logs, never sent
Drafts in a dead language
Sun looks thin tonight
Like it's scrolling out of life
You tap glass with four blue hands
Ask me, "Is this how endings land?"
Coffee cold in zero‑g
Floating like a failed dream
We read jokes off broken feeds
Laugh till it hurts to breathe (yeah)
[Chorus]
We watch the sun go dark on channel nine
Counting down the colors as they die
If this is it, then let it burn in our eyes
Let it burn in our eyes (hey)
I got my helmet on my heart this time
You wrap your shadow all around my mind
If this is it, then let it burn in our eyes
Let it burn in our eyes
[Verse 2]
You draw stars on metal walls
Circles over exit calls
Point at me, then at the void
Some kind of "together or destroyed"
I used to pray to morning shifts
Traffic, bills, the same old scripts
Now every warning light that blinks
Feels softer than the way you think
You tilt your head, you never blink
Mouth a shape I can't quite sync
But when the sunlight starts to thin
We both lean closer to the dim (oh)
[Chorus]
We watch the sun go dark on channel nine
Counting down the colors as they die
If this is it, then let it burn in our eyes
Let it burn in our eyes (woah)
I got my helmet on my heart this time
You wrap your shadow all around my mind
If this is it, then let it burn in our eyes
Let it burn in our eyes
[Bridge]
[Beat drops to distant thumps, vocoder vocal]
If every light goes out
Would you stay, would you stay?
If every code shuts down
Would you fade, would you fade?
I was alone in my own head
Scrolling ghosts, sleeping with regret
Then you arrived like a glitch in the feed
Wrong frequency, right time for me (yeah)
[Chorus]
We watch the sun go dark on channel nine
Counting down the colors as they die
If this is it, then let it burn in our eyes
Let it burn in our eyes (let it burn)
I got my helmet on my heart this time
You wrap your shadow all around my mind
If this is it, then let it burn in our eyes
Let it burn in our eyes
