Dying Sun

by Aisle 9 & Chris Keya

/

about

A very personal song this one. Inspired by a terrible family tragedy and the ways we live on digitally after we pass.

lyrics

Like steel in the rain
Or lovers in the night
Together we’ll remain
In this fading light
Young pixels of the dead
Who’s data’s left to run
Bytes that cannot bleed
Below our Dying Sun

Nothing was set in stone
Peaceful and on their own
High hills where children play
Those summer lawns and sunny days
No tears or problems here
We’re all just living another year
Down by the riverside
Where the tall trees grow the children hide

Soon though the cracks appear
One wine another beer
Those late nights of loneliness
She turns away while you undress
Dead drowning at your screen
Lungs filled with silent screams
You can’t breathe, you can’t find no peace
Self medicate but there’s no release

Like steel in the rain
Or lovers in the night
Together we’ll remain
In this fading light
Young pixels of the dead
Who’s data’s left to run
The bytes that cannot bleed
Below our Dying Sun

How did it come to this
The years went like autumn mist
Those messages you never read
Too many kind words were left unsaid
Here we stand on the ledge
Our bodies balanced at the edge
They’ve got us archived for eternity
That’s Earth’s parting gift to you and me

In the rain
All your friends
Here remain
All their fears
In this night
All your hopes
This fading light
All those years
Of the dead
All your friends
Cannot breathe
All their fears
We’re left to run
All your hopes
Our dying sun
All our tears

Like steel in the rain
Lovers in the night
Together we’ll remain
In this fading light
Young Pixels of the dead
Who’s data’s left to run
Skins that cannot burn
Below Our Dying Sun

All your friends
All their fears
All your hopes
All those years

Through the rain
Red rivers run
You’ll remain
Our Dying Sun

Through the rain
Red rivers run
You’ll remain
Our Dying Sun
