about

This song is the epic of the album. Lots of swirling keyboards and heavy delayed guitars. Lyrics are about our home....planet Earth and what we are doing to it...The lyrics are written from the Earths perspective...what would the Earth say to you...if it could.

lyrics

Wait for me, play with me.

Stay with me, pray for me.

I spin you 'round and give you life,

I've watched you grow and helped you fly.

We spin around with common eyes,

Uncommon minds, and now I'm wasting away.

I've given you this wonderland,

I wish that you could understand.

My heart is breaking everyday,

You build decay and I am fading away.

And I don't know if it's too late.

I must hope and I must wait.

Fill my lungs with poison,

Ravage the horizon,

Voice your blind annoyance,

Change the world in silence.

Burn me 'til I'm blistered,

Broken and bewildered,

No more than a whisper,

Roll me up in glitter.

I am missing legs and you're polishing my toes.

Fill my lungs with poison,

Ravage the horizon,

Voice your blind annoyance,

Change the world in silence.

Burn me 'til I'm blistered,

Broken and bewildered,

No more than a whisper,

Roll me up in glitter.

Wait for me, play with me.

Stay with me, pray for me.

And I don't know if it's too late.

I must hope and I must wait.

You melt me down and it goes on and on and on and on and on.

You play around and it goes on and on and on and on and on.

You're making a fool out of me, 

You're making a fool, out of me.

I am missing roots and your watering the leaves.

I spin you 'round and give you life,

I've watched you grow and helped you fly.

We spin around with common eyes,

Uncommon minds, and now I'm wasting away.

I've given you this wonderland,

I wish that you could understand.

My heart is breaking everyday,

You build decay and I am fading away.

Wait for me, pray for me.

I am missing legs and you're polishing my toes,

I am missing roots and your watering the leaves.

The Dark Monarchy Brampton, Ontario

The Dark Monarchy consists of Mark Anthony K (Projekt Gemineye) and Joe Bailey (Joe Bailey). After contributing some vocals to the latest Projekt Gemineye album, Mark and Joe decided to work on some songs together. The results were so good they decided that it would be a shame not to form a band and release them. With that said...so begins The Dark Monarchy. ... more
