Dark Shines Lyrics

Cover art for Dark Shines lyrics by Muse

Originally I thought this song was about rape, too, like Flah said. But now I think it's about the whole promiscuous sex/groupie thing that has been mentioned. Because, in the chorus; 'dark shines bringing me down making my heart feel sore because it's good'

I believe this is Matt, or whoever the song is about saying that sleeping with these (young, innocent) women is good, however, it's bringing him down emotionally because it makes his heart feel sore, perhaps because he desires something more, which may be love, a real relationship etc. Love is within our heart, and this may be heartbreak. I don't know, but that's how I feel about it.
