Dark Matter

Steal the lights from our eyes

Take my blood from my heart

We're in all of this dark matter

Take the breaths from my chest

Take the thoughts from my mind

We're losing time, dark matter

Denounce the demagogues

Came down into discord

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

You're running away

We're pulling apart

In all of this dark matter

I once heard a sin

And it stuck in my head

Arrested the press

No one knows what happened next

Denounce the demagogues

Came down into discord

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 so

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
