Map Of The Problematique

Muse · HAARP [2008]

Fear, and panic in the air

I want to be free

From desolation and despair

And I feel like everything I sow

Has been swept away

Well I refuse to let you go



I can't get it right

Get it right

Since I met you



Loneliness be over

When will this

Loneliness be over?



Life will flash before my eyes

So scattered and rushed

I want to touch the other side

And no-one thinks they are to blame

Why can't we see

That when we bleed, we bleed the same?



I can't get it right

Get it right

Since I met you



Loneliness be over

When will this

Loneliness be over?



Loneliness be over

When will this

Loneliness be over?

Map Of The Problematique

Map Of The Problematique stands as a defining track from Muse's 2009 album The Resistance, showcasing the band's signature blend of progressive rock and alternative pop. The recording features the group's characteristic theatricality, driven by Matt Bellamy's dynamic vocal performance and intricate guitar work. As part of an era where the band explored grander sonic landscapes, the song reflects their ambition to merge classical influences with modern rock energy. It remains a staple in their live performances, often serving as a bridge between their earlier guitar-heavy compositions and the more orchestral textures found in later works. The track exemplifies the band's ability to craft complex, emotionally charged anthems that resonate with fans of expansive, cinematic rock music.
