"9669" is a song by the Welsh band The Joy Formidable, and it is sung in the Welsh language. The lyrics translate to English as follows: This is farewell, A long farewell, This is the one, the only one, You're breaking from the knee, from the flawed side, That's us wasting, that's us, You made the call, The call hastens, You broke the spell hard and it fell. This time, I'm leaving everything, Leaving with the dawn, The numbers upside down, The numbers. Step away from the road, Step, reshape, Here comes the white, Here comes the void, If we should share, We must share more sweetly, But the gravel stretches, breaking and crumbling, I can't travel, Travel to the sunset, Unknown, far away, and we love each other. 9669, I lost your hand, 9669, Hold on now. The song's meaning can be subjective and open to interpretation. However, some possible interpretations could be about letting go of something or someone, leaving the past behind, and starting anew. The numbers mentioned in the lyrics might represent a code or a symbol of a certain experience or memory. The overall feeling conveyed in the song is one of saying goodbye and moving on to a different phase in life.
