Dark Matter (song)

Steal the light from our eyes
Drain the blood from our hearts
In all of this dark matter

Take the breath from our chest
Break the thoughts in our mind
We're losing time, dark matter

Denounce the demigods
King diamond to discard
Deploy the dialogue
Your word against the law

It's strange these days
When everybody else pays
For someone else's mistake
This blame takes shape
Still everybody else pays
For someone else's mistake

Eroding away
We're pulling apart
In all of this dark matter

I once heard it said
And it stuck in my head
Arrested the press
No one knows what happened next

Renounce the demagogues
King diamond to discard
Deploy the dialogue
Your word against the law

It's strange these days
When everybody else pays
For someone else's mistake
This blame takes shape
Still everybody else pays
For someone else's mistake

No tolerance for
Intolerance or
No patience left for
Impatience no more
No love lost for
Lost loves
No sorrow for
The unaccountable

It's strange these days
When everybody else pays
For someone else's mistake
This blame takes shape
Still everybody else pays
For someone else's mistake

Eddie sounds great.

I can hear the soundgarden vibe.

Yeah getting a touch of Riot Act vibes as well

Interesting guitar effect...traces of Louder Than Love vibe in the verse riff
There's some genuinely strident desperation in Ed's voice that I haven't heard in a while

This is so cool.

Get on the lyrics stip

It’s a solid song. The bridge is my favorite part, into a solo, classic PJ. No complaints for a band whose members are in their late 50s early 60s. Production suits them. Hopefully a sign of things to come.

I like where Ed is in the mix while also not understanding most of the lyrics. CLASSIC PEARL JAM.

Musically it does. Eddie's got an edge that wasn't present on Riot Act, though

Someone get to work on the lyrics
