Encephalon Domain: Through the Windows
I. Newer Lifeborn
 
 When life found this newborn child 
 When oceans ran with the tide
 The odyssey was building up to be
 Part of everyone's lifelong ride
  
 The spirit that sailed on the waves that day
 Drew something special from the ivy of time
 Its prehistoric rambling gave way to
 The greatest moments in their prime 
 
 The whistling that was heard that day
 Never drawn from another vine
 The quintessence of another life
 Smack dead into the threads of time
 
 Cross over from portal life
 Into the action of today
 Into the silent milky way
 The edge is drawing nearer
 
 II. Borders
 
 Crystal globes are hanging
 Overhead
 With lead
 Coming out of every side
 The sea of questions
 Its heavy riptide
 Ride 
 
 A simple action out of consequence
 Forever its waiting for you
 To take the wrong and shameful road
 To a darker side of life
 It flows through me
 I see the surge of a coming nightmare
 Step all over me
 To reach the gates of time
 
 Too ready to see confidence
 Too active to see crying
 Two levels to the omniplace
 Two rebels in a bind 
 
 III. Knowledge Not Self-Deception
 I'm not concerned about your lessons
 I'm not concerned about your light
 I might be nice, but maybe, just maybe
 I'm much more fit for the night
 
 Its claustrophobic cloak I wear
 Its nautical seas I do not bear
 Letting loose a few demons inside
 Feeling I don't care
 
 Shedding darkness where there is light
 Feeling everything that's right
 Tonight
 The vision is near
 The echoes of my calling's clear
 Let the pastors and the priests
 Reveal their truest prophecies
 
 The end will never come
 
 Nothing will never exist
 
 IV. God's Whim
 There are so many things I want to curse you for
 Why you let so many things disappear
 Things I never wanted to let go
 Things I kept dear
 
 So rain your punishing waters on me
 Cleanse my body right
 I'm not giving in to the life of a fool
 I'm gonna do things right
 
 Follow in my own footsteps
 Ready to be free
 The chains of words have no hold on me
 I'm my own society
 
 
 V. Newer Lifeborn Reborn
 
 ...And when that negativity passes
 I can always see the truth
 To the planet's dark and evil ways
 To the shadows angry and blue
 
 Those renegades lost in their revenge
 The saddest souls of all
 When I finally put my head on straight
 I can see through it all
 That no matter the anger no matter the pain
 The jealousy, and those things in vain
 Not living a life worthy by someone else
 They say I can't stay, go somewhere else
 That sharing love is unbeatable
 Anywhere you may be
 No matter where you go
 No matter how hard it is to see
 No matter how hard you cried
 What matters is you've found a way
 To be happy all the time
