9669 Lyrics
Is that the long
Is that the long goodbye?
That's just the one
That's just the one you'll find
Cut from the waste, You cut from the weak side
It goes to waste
It goes to waste
You make the call
So make the call shorter
You break the spell
I'll make the fall harder
ah, ah, ah, ahh, ah, ah
This time
It's over
Unless I
Under miss my
nothing miss my
number
Step out the light
Step out and re-shape me
Here comes the white
Here comes the big empty
If we're meant to part
We're meant to part sweeter
Make some swells
and slips some cut deeper
We don't ride
We don't ride to sunset
We just ride until our last breath
ah, ah, ah, ahh, ah, ah
This time
It's over
Unless I
Under miss my
Nothing miss my
Number
9669
You're on my mind
9669
You're on my mind
la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Is that the long goodbye?
That's just the one
That's just the one you'll find
Cut from the waste, You cut from the weak side
It goes to waste
It goes to waste
You make the call
So make the call shorter
You break the spell
I'll make the fall harder
It's over
Unless I
Under miss my
nothing miss my
number
Step out and re-shape me
Here comes the white
Here comes the big empty
If we're meant to part
We're meant to part sweeter
Make some swells
and slips some cut deeper
We don't ride
We don't ride to sunset
We just ride until our last breath
It's over
Unless I
Under miss my
Nothing miss my
Number
You're on my mind
9669
You're on my mind
la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

Beautiful song. I don't QUITE know what it means,
I picture a couple who is contemplating breaking up. It seems like they have just had another fight and both are wondering if this is the fight to end all. I love the part "We don't ride, We don't ride to sunset, We just ride until our last breath." I think it shows that even if this couple were going to stay together this time, they both know it will end eventually, their just not meant to be. Although the song has a pretty basic breakup or future breakup theme I think the lyrics are done in a sweet way where the listener can see that the couple still cares for each other especially in the line "We're meant to part sweeter." I have no idea what the 9669 number means. If anyone has some insight to that let me know. Just my interpretation, could mean anything.
@fullspeedhalfblind i think the 9669 is a metaphor representing the intertwining of personalities involved. if you flip a 9 its a 6, same shape so a lot in common but different enough. Now placing a 9 by a 6 you have two contrasts which are very similar. Further you take 96 and place it in reverse by something again similar, 69. Again opposites attract but still opposites that look like they belong together but maybe not. Its a brilliant metaphor.
