This one is quite the turnaround from the previous two songs. But I had to get dark and mysterious at some point. Beautifully crafted lyrics by @maccadaisy
Taking out by layer,
Incision by incision.
Neatly winding down
To reveal heaving sanctum.
The final draw finds its mark,
Granting ingress to your
Smoke-filled room,
baleful and rotten.
Smut seeps from the stroke,
Dissipating into the
Nothingness of clemency.
Loving laceration,
Permit giving quarter
To a whited sepulcher.
Expel my harbored agony
Into the home of memories
Long forgotten.
Selective severing of careless
Blunders and broken bonds.
Freeing me in ignorance,
Birthing my patchwork dream
Of a preferred realization of you

This reminds me both of Muse and Symphony X. I like the harmonies. Very dramatic and epic. Great one.

Nice - real early Genesis vibes on this track. Feel like the world is going to come crushing down and that we all deserve it
