lyrics

Sunlight
Fade away
We never need your alien heat.

[CH:]
It’s an icy green
The only light that you’ve seen
This ignition inside my veins
My nerves on fire
Fiberoptic wire
Shows an affirming flame

Deep-sea vent
Make these shadows boil
Lift these islands. Rise like the night.

[CH:]
It’s an icy green
The only light that you’ve seen
This ignition inside my veins
My nerves on fire
Fiberoptic wire
Shows an affirming flame

Yeti crabs
Raise your hairy claws
Salute these living stars. Salute these living stars

[CH:]
It’s an icy green
The only light that you’ve seen
This ignition inside my veins
My nerves on fire
Fiberoptic wire
Shows an affirming flame

[BRIDGE:]
At the sight of you
the heart steel strikes the skin flint.
My ember body glows.
Your own desire flashes
like a string of Christmas lights.
You don’t care who knows.

[CH:]
It’s an icy green
The only light that you’ve seen
This ignition inside my veins
My nerves on fire
Fiberoptic wire
Shows an affirming flame
