The coldest summer
You withdrew further
And gave a little less
You took the sun away
You say you're with me
Then ghost right through me
I'll never understand
How it slipped away
All I ever dreamed of
Has fled to the stars and hides in the dark
Everyone I reached for
They tear me apart, encoding my heart
With shimmering scars
Stonewall silence
I beg for guidance
But every vow we made
Unravelled through the pain
And if you say it's nothing
Then why are your eyes still flooding?
We stamped the embers out
I carry half the blame
All I ever dreamed of
Has fled to the stars and hides in the dark
Everyone I reached for
They tear me apart, encoding my heart
With shimmering scars
Was I not enough? Was I not enough?
What still remains? I don't wanna break
Was I not enough? Was I not enough?
I can't start again, I carry half the blame
I carry half the blame
All I ever dreamed of
Has fled to the stars and hides in the dark
Everyone I reached for
They tear me apart, encoding my heart
With shimmering scars
I can't start again
You withdrew further
And gave a little less
You took the sun away
You say you're with me
Then ghost right through me
I'll never understand
How it slipped away
All I ever dreamed of
Has fled to the stars and hides in the dark
Everyone I reached for
They tear me apart, encoding my heart
With shimmering scars
Stonewall silence
I beg for guidance
But every vow we made
Unravelled through the pain
And if you say it's nothing
Then why are your eyes still flooding?
We stamped the embers out
I carry half the blame
All I ever dreamed of
Has fled to the stars and hides in the dark
Everyone I reached for
They tear me apart, encoding my heart
With shimmering scars
Was I not enough? Was I not enough?
What still remains? I don't wanna break
Was I not enough? Was I not enough?
I can't start again, I carry half the blame
I carry half the blame
All I ever dreamed of
Has fled to the stars and hides in the dark
Everyone I reached for
They tear me apart, encoding my heart
With shimmering scars
I can't start again

Sheesh, are we trying a bit too hard? I'll give it another listen later.
I vibed with their loud, brash yearning decades ago when we were all young. And I vibe with their quieter, more complex yearning in this new song, too. Muse's sound has matured while they (and I) age. Such a beautiful human (and humanizing) experience.
Muse excelent brand new song! I'll start with a 10.
not bad considering it is another song of a girl leaving the boy. Gee, why did she leave?
