This song desperately needs a shuffle beat. That's why it's called a "demo." You should come hear it live. :) Or get excited for the live recording in April. Or do both and come be a part of the audience!

lyrics

I had forgotten how far I came from
And how heavy
The weight
Of the sum.

You and I are not so different
Not so distant.
Over both our rights have been won.

May I not be so wise
In mine own eyes and get lost
In a Lesser Kingdom.

Beyond the division
Above the delusion
See a reign that will never end.

No human borders
No heart disorders
Just love with a freedom plan.

While we’re in the waiting there is wisdom in saying that someday the king will come
May I not be so wise in mine own eyes and get lost in a Lesser Kingdom.

It is no wonder
For all the alarm.
Man weighs the outward
Is fooled by pure charm.

God could never be so blinded, so short-sighted not to see straight into the heart.
With the time that remains let us do the same before heaven demands us its part.
