about

Hey! It's Dark Matter's first new track since 2016! We've been away for too long, but we're glad to be back. So here's a new song off our upcoming album, an ode to rocking that's based on a true story. Enjoy!

lyrics

Hey, you at the fancy school
With the silver spoon and chain
With your suit and tie, your nose held so high
It’s filling up with rain

So what if I play guitar and synth
While you play the cello or violin
Does it give you the right to act higher, then?
Because to me, we’re one and the same

If you think we’re uncultured
I think you should take a walk

We live for rock
We live for rock
I’m no Johann Sebastian Bach
We live for rock

Oh, you got a problem too?
Join the club, I guess, my friend
You say these songs of mine have had their time
And that time’s coming to an end

So, you think my songs are for dinosaurs
Well, before I’m done, you’re gonna hear me roar
Hell, at least I don’t sound totally bored
Or on a Xanax cocktail binge

You may say this ship has sailed
But it’s barely left the dock

We live for rock
We live for rock
I don’t need that kind of talk
We live for rock

We live for rock
We live for rock
And we’re never gonna stop…
We live for rock!

We live for rock! We live for rock!
We live for rock! We live for rock!
We live for rock! We live for rock!
We live for rock! We live for rock!

We live for rock!
We live for rock!
We live for rock!
