V6

[Intro] (The crackle of white noise and heavy radio static. A slow, brooding synthesizer pulses underneath. The beat drops in like a slow, deliberate heartbeat.) [Verse 1] [Female Vocal] Turn the dial, turn it slow I hear a whisper in the snow Through the static, through the pain Someone's calling in the rain. [Male Vocal] It’s just the wind, it’s just a ghost A dying echo at the most Don’t let it pull you in the deep The world above is fast asleep. [Chorus] [Both] A ghost in the static, a voice in the wire A spark in the ashes, a flickering fire Are we the last ones left to breathe? Or is it a lie that we want to believe? A phantom connection we can’t understand A desperate reach for a saving hand. [Verse 2] [Female Vocal] Listen close, the rhythm breaks A human sound, the silence wakes I hear a name, I hear a plea It proves that there is more to see. [Male Vocal] We found a haven, we found a light Why chase a shadow in the night? You know the scavengers out there A trap disguised as empty air. [Chorus] [Both] A ghost in the static, a voice in the wire A spark in the ashes, a flickering fire Are we the last ones left to breathe? Or is it a lie that we want to believe? A phantom connection we can’t understand A desperate reach for a saving hand. [Verse 3] [Female Vocal] I’d rather die out in the cold Than wither down here growing old. [Male Vocal] I swear to keep you safe from harm But I can’t stop the coming storm. [Both] The signal clears, the numbers fall A set of coordinates calling us all. The choice is made, the compass turns The fire inside us finally burns. [Outro] [Female Vocal] (Softly) I hear them... [Male Vocal] (Whispering) We have to go. [Both] Out in the static. Out in the cold. (The synth bass rises, blending with the radio static until a sudden, sharp electronic cut brings pure silence.)
