Steven Wilson - Dark Matter lyrics

[Verse 1] Inside the vehicle the cold is extreme Smoke in my throat kicks me out of my dream I try to relax but its warmer outside I fail to connect, it's a tragic divide [Verse 2] This has become a full time career To die young would take only 21 years Gun down a school or blow up a car The media circus will make you a star [Chorus] Crushed like a rose In the river flow I am I know [Verse 3] Dark matter flowing out on to a tape Is only as loud as the silence it breaks Most things decay in a matter of days The product is sold the memory fades [Chorus] Crushed like a rose In the river flow I am I know [Spoken word sample] You've just had a heavy session of electroshock therapy, and you're more relaxed than you've been in weeks All those childhood traumas magically wiped away, along with most of your personality
