    “Kill the Light” is SYSTEM SYN’s latest and most synthpop-oriented album to date. Expertly mixed and mastered by Ted Phelps (Imperative Reaction), the album takes the listener on an emotionally engaging journey, showcasing Carney’s vocal and lyrical talents like never before. The songs of “Kill the Light” range from haunting and heartbreaking, to heavy-hitting club tracks, yet all retain the sound that is so uniquely SYSTEM SYN. "Kill the Light" also features backing vocals and guitar on selected tracks by SYSTEM SYN live members, Tash Cox and Scott Landes.

lyrics

You could climb all the mountains in the world
and still not be half as high as you are now

you wear your anger like a crown
and it will always weigh you down

no one will ever love you
like you love yourself
I promise you we tried
but couldn’t find a reason

what will you do when the smoke clears
and you’re the only one still standing upside down
your feet are in the clouds
but your head’s still underground
and we won’t be around when you come down
so just calm down

all that you hide behind your eyes
the crushing weight of your disguise
you try so hard to see it through
but I can see it’s killing you

everything that is born will die
that doesn’t make your life a lie
but when your fading star falls down
there’ll be no sound

don’t you know that were all on a path
what is it you think that we want from you
it’s not your fame
it’s not your life
it’s not your love
it’s not your time
just give us what we want
it is your never ending absence

all that you hide behind your eyes
the crushing weight of your disguise
you try so hard to see it through
but I can see it’s killing you

everything that is born will die
that doesn’t make your life a lie
but when your fading star falls down
there’ll be no sound
