Steal the light from your 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

Okay, I'm going to bed. Here is an updated stab at lyrics with some of the suggestions from this thread. Keep at it team



Steal the light from our eyes
Drain the blood from our hearts
When all of it is dark matter
Take the breath from my chest,
Break the thoughts in our mind,
We're losing count, dark matter

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

It’s strange these days
When everyone else pays for someone else’s mistake
This blame takes shape
still everybody else pays for someone else's mistake

You’re rowing away
Your pulling apart
In all of this dark matter
I want you to sit and …… no idea here
Arrested the press
No one knows what happened next

Renounce the demigods
King diamond to destroy
Deploy the dialogue
Your word against the lord

It’s strange these days
When everyone 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 everyone else pays for someone else’s mistake
This blame takes shape
still everybody else pays for someone else's mistake

Good job, Pearl Jam

He's a gifted musician that understands his instrument (and it appears the producer does too).

the bridge, the descending guitar notes coming out of it, the drum fill going into the solo / outro, all just fantastic

I feel such joy that there's new Pearl Jam that most of us are loving at exactly the same moment in 2024. It's 1992 all over again, if only for a short time.
