You came from nothing
Too proud for your kin
You were born in, such a mess
Through your own eyes, life is a sin
You were born in, such a mess
Through your own eyes
Living seems too strange
For one with much pain
How can we breathe, and not collapse?
Walking on roads, just full of traps
Blackened my eyes, darkness has shown
Science prevails now
Moon shines while you sleep
Grace fades through the years
There is no thread that's holding me
I fear no God, nor destiny
Blackened my eyes, darkness has shown
Science must wear that evil crown
Behold, God
Let's cover him with blood
Behold, Orion
Let's make one with the sun
We won’t forget is gone
Without Him we’re lost
Strange the dogma’s force
Constellation be our guide
Some of us don’t want to fight
They won’t forgive
The living will live
Behold, God
Behold, Orion
Everybody goes
Away with no sound
When you raise your eyes
Surprise in the skies

If someone were to ask me why I love progressive rock, this album would be one of my examples. It's eclectic; it's beautiful; it's sufficiently complex; and its cover art is cool. Soul Doubt does one hell of a great job of reprising the album's themes and building atmosphere and emotion throughout the >100 minute affair. And the cherry on top of it all is that there are no middling or superfluous songs--which is impressive because double albums usually have some amount of filler.
Magnifico!

As a fan of the golden age of progressive music (Yes, Genesis, ELP, Crimson, Floyd, etc.) seeking newer bands, this album checks off more than a few sub-genres. The sum is greater than the parts although the parts are very good. It flows well from start to finish. progging_forgold
