In the early hours of New Years Day 2013, a radio astronomer at the Allen Telescope Array in northern California discovered a mysterious signal emanating from a star within the Ophiuchus Constellation.
Contained within the signal was a Message--of human origin--foretelling the details of man's imminent demise. The Message was brought to The Starset Society, who quickly realized the importance of its immediate publication.
Risking extreme danger, The Starset Society commissioned a group of musicians and scientists to assist them in spreading the knowledge to a broader audience. This group became known simply as STARSET.
Please hold. STARSET will begin the TRANSMISSION of the Message to the public shortly.

Dark On Me
Starset Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There's no love
Only dark skies that hang above
I call your name as I walk alone
Send a signal to guide me home
Light the night up, you're my dark star
And now you're falling away
But I found in you what was lost in me
In a world so cold and empty
I could lie awake just to watch you breathe
In the dead of night, you went dark on me
You're the cause
The antidote
The sinking ship that I could not let go
You led my way then disappeared
How could you just walk away and leave me here?
Light the night up, you're my dark star
And now you're falling away
But I found in you what was lost in me
In a world so cold and empty
I could lie awake just to watch you breathe
In the dead of night, you went dark on me
Blinded, I can't do this on my own
You are all I've got to guide me home
I could lie awake just to watch you breathe
In the dead of night, you went dark on me
Dark on me, dark on me
Dark on me, dark on me
Dark on me
I could lie awake just to watch you breathe
In the dead of night, you went dark on me
"With the growth and development of these giant eyes
The exploration of space has swept outwards in great waves
Today we explore with a telescope of 100 inches
It has the light gathering power of more than 200,000 human eyes
We observe a volume of space so vast
That it may be a fair sample of the universe itself
The explorations fall into three phases
The first phase led long ago to a picture
Of the solar system, the Sun with its family of planets
Including the earth, isolated and lonely in space"
The lyrics of Starset’s Dark On Me tell a story of a relationship that turned sour, with one person leaving the other behind. The song explores themes of loss, loneliness, and isolation. The opening lines, “There’s no hate, there’s no love, only dark skies that hang above,” creates a dark and desolate atmosphere, reflecting the pain and confusion that the singer is feeling. The following line, “I call your name as I walk alone, send a signal to guide me home,” suggests that the singer is lost without the other person and is searching for a way to fill the void.
The chorus, “I found in you what was lost in me, in a world so cold and empty,” expresses the idea that the singer found a sense of purpose and meaning in the other person. However, the line “you went dark on me” indicates that this connection has been lost, leaving the singer in a state of despair. The final line, “I could lie awake just to watch you breathe” shows how desperate the singer is to hold onto the other person, even in the dead of night.
Overall, the lyrics of Dark On Me are poetic and evocative, painting a picture of a relationship in turmoil. The use of imagery and metaphors helps to create a powerful emotional impact that lingers long after the song has ended.

There's no hate
There's no animosity between us
There's no love
There's no affection or strong bond between us
Only dark skies that hang above
We exist in a bleak and gloomy state
I call your name as I walk alone
I'm searching for you and hoping you'll hear me
Send a signal to guide me home
Give me a sign that will lead me to you
Light the night up, you're my dark star
You're the bright spot in my darkness
And now you're falling away
You're drifting away from me
But I found in you what was lost in me
You brought something valuable into my life
In a world so cold and empty
Life can be harsh and unforgiving
I could lie awake just to watch you breathe
Simply being near you gives me comfort and peace
In the dead of night, you went dark on me
You disappeared when I needed you most
You're the cause
You are the reason for my feelings and actions
The antidote
You also have the power to alleviate my pain
The sinking ship that I could not let go
You're something I can't bear to lose
You led my way then disappeared
You guided me through tough times but then vanished
How could you just walk away and leave me here?
I feel abandoned and betrayed by your departure
Blinded, I can't do this on my own
I'm lost and helpless without you
You are all I've got to guide me home
You're my only hope to find my way back to happiness
Dark on me, dark on me
Your absence has cast a shadow over everything
I could lie awake just to watch you breathe
Even just seeing you brings me comfort and joy
In the dead of night, you went dark on me
You left me alone in a time of need, when I needed you most

My best friend sent me this song a few years ago. I had just recently moved away, and we were going to go to different highschools for our freshman year. At the time, we sent each other songs every so often (he did more than I did). I think this was one of the first songs he sent me, and for some reason, one of the most memorable.
Tbh, I could always remember the band name but not the actual title. I used to think that Starset was the name of this song lol
It’s been a long while since I’ve listened to this song, but I’ll think about it every now and again. I was always too lazy to find the song again and listen to it until recently, when a new friend I made mentioned that Starset was one of his favorite music artists.
This song brings back so many amazing memories for me, and it reminds me of my best friend... who I haven’t really heard from recently.
I’ll be thinking of him though. If he’s reading this, I miss ya! ^^

There's no hate, there's no love
Only dark skies, that hang above
I call your name as I walk alone
Send a signal to guide me home
Light the night
You're my dark star
And now you're falling away
But I found in you, what was lost in me
In a world so cold and empty
I could lie awake, just to watch you breathe
In the dead of night, you went dark on me
You're the cause the antidote
The sinking ship, that I could not let go
You let my way, then disappear
How could you just walk away and leave me here
Light the night
You're my dark star
And now you're falling away
But I found in you, what was lost in me
In a world so cold and empty
I could lie awake
Just to watch you breathe
In the dead of night, you went dark on me
Why did I can do this on my own
You're all I got to guide me home
I could lie awake
Just to watch you breathe
In the dead of night, you went dark on me
Dark on me
Dark on me
Dark on me
Dark on me
Dark on me
I could lie awake
Just to watch you breathe

There's no hate
そこに憎しみはない
There's no love
そこに愛はない
Only dark skies that hang above
真っ暗な空だけが広がっている
I call your name as I walk alone
一人で歩きながら君の名前を呼ぶ
Send a signal to guide me home
家に帰るために 合図を送ってくれ
Light the night up, you're my dark star
夜を照らしてくれる 君は俺の暗闇の中で輝く星
And now you're falling away
そして今 君は落ちていく
But I found in you what was lost in me
しかし 俺は君の中に 失った自分を見つけたんだ
In a world so cold and empty
とても冷たくて空虚な世界で
I could lie awake just to watch you breathe
君の呼吸を見る為だけに 眠らずに横たわっていたんだ
In the dead of night you went dark on me
真夜中に 君は俺を置いてどこかに消えた
You're the cause
君のせいだ
The antidote
解毒剤
The sinking ship that I could not let go
それは手放せなかった沈没船だ
You led my way, then disappeared
君は先導してくれたけど そのあと消えてしまった
How could you just walk away and leave me here?
どうして俺を置き去りにしたんだ？
Light the night up, you're my dark star
夜を照らしてくれる 君は俺の暗闇の中で輝く星
And now you're falling away
そして今 君は落ちていく
But I found in you what was lost in me
しかし 俺は君の中に 失った自分を見つけたんだ
In a world so cold and empty
とても冷たくて空虚な世界で
I could lie awake just to watch you breathe
君の呼吸を見る為だけに 眠らずに横たわっていたんだ
In the dead of night you went dark on me
真夜中に 君は俺を置いてどこかに消えた
Blinded I can't do this on my own
盲目の俺は 自分では何もできない
You are all I've got to guide me home
君だけが 俺を帰る場所へと連れて行ってくれる
I could lie awake just to watch you breathe
君の呼吸を見る為だけに 眠らずに横たわっていたんだ
In the dead of night you went dark on me
真夜中に 君は俺を置いてどこかに消えた
Dark on me, dark on me...
君は俺を置いてどこかに消えた
Dark on me
君は俺を置いてどこかに消えた
I could lie awake just to watch you breathe
君の呼吸を見る為だけに 眠らずに横たわっていたんだ
In the dead of night you went dark on me
真夜中に 君は俺を置いてどこかに消えた
With the growth and development of these giant eyes,
この巨大な目の成長と発展に伴い
The exploration of space has swept outwards in great waves.
宇宙の探検は大きな波に乗って 外へと出て行きました
Today we explore with a telescope of 100 inches…
今日 私たちは100インチの望遠鏡で探査を行っています
It has the light gathering power of more than 200,000 human eyes…
それは 20万個以上の人間の目に匹敵する集光力を持っています
The explorations fall into three phases.
探査は3つのフェーズに分かれています
The first phase led long ago to a picture of the solar system-
第一段階では遥か昔の太陽系が描かれています
The sun with its family of planets, including the earth,
地球を含む太陽系の惑星が
Isolated and lonely in space.
宇宙空間の中で孤独に佇んでいました
