marie-jude smart I love this album because it is simply an amazing inspiring album!!! Whatever I say is just going to sound lame. Also I love the Shakespearean concept of a kingdom existing at the tip of a pin. There is limitlessness to our capabilities. They are there regardless the consequences that dictate out lives. Favorite track: Despodent Hereafter.

1.	Bleeding from a Sweaty Palm 06:56	lyrics	buy track
In simpler times of difficult living Fortune was left behind There, a part of us is swimming Barely breathing but we still have our minds We are waiting to be read The words inside our head In the beginning a familiar find Easing patience with a vast Permanently in the moment’s past Filling the emptiness with the heft of lies But tomorrow we will live With nothing left to give Clinging to the life that no longer tries Delusion are not fact Our conclusion is intact To what is yet to come Seeing with our eyes Argument denied Forgetting less more than some I have broken free Expect reality When all is said and done we will be beyond Far past the light of dawn There, energy is one Our lives a hidden track It’s great to be back With some sort of eager calm False lessons learned Watch it as it burns Bleeding from a sweaty palm There are answers to be had None of them are bad We will see when we become Thoughts are just a gas Circling really fast It is where we all came from

Imp Imperial corpses hang Fermented spirits howl Fathomless dread Lethal woes Chiseled bones Burrowing deeper In the depths Faceless souls Never knowing Of what was before Going out a path Imp Imperial corpses hang Fermented spirits howl Fathomless dread Lethal woes Chiseled bones Burrowing deeper In the depths Faceless souls That never sleeps Never knowing Of what was before Gouging out a path Intuition leads the way Neither moored nor steered Conversing black mass Reciting infinite voices Feel… feel the endless energy Haunting every moment Possessing aggressively Not a soul can be saved Despondent Hereafter

Galactic Imperial corpses hang Fermented spirits howl Fathomless dread Lethal woes Chiseled bones Burrowing deeper In the depths Faceless souls That never sleeps Never knowing Of what was before Gouging out a path Intuition leads the way Neither moored nor steered Conversing black mass Reciting infinite voices Feel… feel the endless energy Haunting every moment Possessing aggressively Not a soul can be saved Despondent Hereafter
4.	Mortuus Rex 09:44	lyrics	buy track
Callused white palace Castle of the crypts Malice in a chalice Invalidly equipped Wrath of the Queen Unseen from shore Remove the king That lost before Lonesome pawn In shadows it awaits All pieces are gone Gallows his fate A brutal fight The bishop is a crook He captured the knight Taunting the rook No chance of a stale Fortress in distress The lord impaled In this game of chess Hinder Wither Prevent Impede! Thwart Frustrate Forestall Defeat!
5.	Realistic Fantasy 09:24	lyrics	buy track
Foliage ignites due to colder nights The sun remains with weakening gain just before the autumn rain Through the still life A leaf that glistens has fallen Through the border of branches I view its leap It spirals with grace to the rest of them I am the only one to see it But the painting of this memory will stay with me …Realistic fantasy The fact that there's more sea than crust is bizarre To notion an ocean exist within all these stars is realistic fantasy At the peak she observes the landscape Mountains spread across the earth Clouds dressed in zestful crest Every tint highlights its steady swim over the canvas of nature
6.	The Kingdom Within a Cave 08:10	lyrics	buy track
In this cave I call my kingdom Haven't slept for days Eternal crave for creation Never parting ways Time to teach infernal wisdom To a clone that will obey Introduce new mechanism Crisp vision on display
7.	The Skeletal Mimes 10:27	lyrics	buy track
Devastation gropes fear Even when unclear We know they’re near With pain sincere Skeletal mimes Have taken back time Screams so divine But our ears can’t hear Amongst the tomb of the life we knew is not from the womb but from the moon Wrapping like a vine around its spine straight to the mind with nerves entwined Heart now a cavity filled with tragedy spreads the anatomy incredibly rapidly The spirits lay soft within the frost under the cross where they were lost
