::DARK MATTER LYRICS::

CALLING YOUR OWN NAME

Still painting your portrait,
Still hanging your lights.
No regrets in sight.

Calling your own name,
tonight.
Always in the forefront,
Always exposed.
What you want,
Who knows?

Calling your own name,
tonight.
Losing your own game,
all your life.

Beneath these peelings,
Under the facade,
You think you’re healing.
You think you’re God.

Calling your own name,
tonight.
Losing your own game,
all your life.
Calling your own name.
Owwoooooooo!


NOBODY THERE

You act as though
nothing compares,
To all that you did.

You put on such
beautiful airs,
But nothing became
of your affairs.

Of your affairs,
Of your affairs.

You come and you
go as you please.
You move without hail.

You lead them on
with your striptease.
Behaving like
everyone’s frail.

Everyone’s frail,
Everyone’s frail.

Oh, love surrounds you,
But you have no heart.
Oh, everyone wants you,
But you’ll have no part.

No.

You draw them with
colorful stares,
and such pretty hair.

You lure with the
clothes that you wear,
but inside
there’s nobody there.

Nobody there.
Nobody there.


IN YOUR BLOOD

Are you still mine?
Deep inside,
In your blood.

Now you’ll keep me,
like a disease,
In your blood.
In your blood.

When the captive,
drags you in,
then you’ll sink,
when I swim,
In your blood.
In your blood.

LEADING THE BLIND

Boom Boom, Bang Bang
and gun it
Zoom Zoom, Hot Dang
You’ve done it
Boom Boom, Bang Bang
You look good to me.

Come inside

Leading the Blind
Into the light

Boo Hoo, Whoa No
You want it
Woo Hoo, Woo Now
You’ve got it
Boo Hoo, Whoa No
Why’d you let it go?

It’s a sign

Leading the Blind
Into the light
Through the wild

Woo Oooh, La La
You fake it
Mmmm Hmmm, A ha
I’ll take it
Woo Oooh, La La
I like what you sell

It’s a lie

Leading the Blind
Into the light
Through the wild

Leading the Blind
Into the light
Through the wild

Woooooooooooo

Through the wild

 

THESE DAYS

And you say it’s deceiving
And hearts are misleading
These days

And you’ve stopped in believing
In chance and conceded
In vain

And you stare
Blissfully unaware

And it’s not worth repeating
You say love is fleeting
These Days

And you gave into treason
And gave up on reason
In spades

And you stare
Blissfully unaware

It’s wandering by
Like thieves in the night
Passing you by

And you say it’s deceiving
And hearts are misleading
These days

And you’ve stopped in believing
In chance and conceded
In vain

And you stare
Blissfully unaware

It’s wandering by
Like thieves in the night
Passing you by

It’s wandering by
Like thieves in the night
Passing you by

LAY IN WAIT

When you’re sleeping
Through the days
And your dreams live
Other ways

Gone...
It’s all over now
It runs over now

When you’re weaving
Through the maze
As you’re crawling
To your fate

Gone...
It’s all over now
It runs over now

Don’t lay in wait

Ooooh

Though you’re leaving
More remains

Gone...
It’s all over now
It runs over now

It’s all over now
Now
Now

Ooooh
Ooooh

Oooooooooooooh

Now

 

JUSTINE

I was living in the shadows
Of no tomorrow,
for my Justine

I gave in to those horrors
But I’m no martyr,
like you Justine

Justine
Justine
I love the way they tortured you,
Justine

I fell into a sea of red
And now my baby’s dead,
my poor Justine

Now she lives in an endless night
An answer to her fright,
because of me

Justine
Justine
I love the way they tortured you,
Justine

Justine
Justine
Will heaven ever bring you back
to me?

Justine
Justine
I love the way they tortured you,
Justine

Justine
Justine
Will heaven ever bring you back
to me?

 

BEFORE I GO

Seems lately,
you’re in a spell,
from chasing,
a star that’s long since fell in

Hills and valleys
but mostly valleys,
are all I can see
before I go.

Seen faintly,
a distant bell,
rings hazy,
and echoes in a well of

Dreams and memories,
but mostly memories,
are all I can leave
before I go.

And I know that it’s a crime,
that I won’t fall down
by your side.

Hills and valleys,
but mostly valleys,
are all I can see
before I go.

Dreams and memories,
but mostly memories
are all I can leave
before I go.

 

EVER AFTER

Running on empty
Alone in the dark
Bruised up and bleeding
And broken apart

Nothing I could ever say
Nothing I could ever do
Could make you believe it was true

Happily...

Ever after
Ever after
You wanted to be

Running on empty
Alone in the dark
Bruised up and bleeding
And broken apart

Nothing I could ever say
Nothing I could ever be
Could make you believe it was me

Happily...

Ever after
Ever after
Happily...

Ever after
Ever after
You wanted to be

Happily...

Ever after
Happily...

EARLY MORNING

I drank my anesthesia
Sweet amnesia
Now stumbling
through the dawning,
Early morning

Greasy skies
On sultry nights
Still burning

Sneaking, creeping
from the bedroom
Busted headroom
Stealing, underneath
an awning
Early morning

Greasy skies
On sultry nights
Still burning

Still burning

Shaking, sailing
down the pavement
Such estrangements
I’ll see, Oooohhh

Early morning

Oooohhh


PLAY ME FOR A FOOL

Reaching for someone in view of me
Taking the leap and the fall
Lending the reigns to give you lead,
Leading me nowhere at all

Play me for a fool
Dazed and crazed and cruel
I’ve lost my heart
I’ve lost my soul
In the evening blue

Clinging to ribbons and feeling weak
From the perfume and champagne
In comes a girl with a painted cheek,
Pulling you close, as she says:

Play me for a fool
Dazed and crazed and cruel
I’ve lost my heart
I’ve lost my soul
In the evening blue

Play me for a fool
Won’t you?
