about

This is the first new single from The Dark Monarchy in almost 2 years. This song really best represents what you can expect to hear on the upcoming new album "The Weight Of The World".

lyrics

The sun is hanging in the sky, but I don’t want to go outside.
My feet are saddled to life inside; concrete shoulders pull back my eyes.
But wait for me a minute, I could crawl a flight of broken stairs.
Wait for me a minute, think of me when you say your prayers, and I will stick to the walls.

All by myself, fastened tight, away from life and prying eyes.
The light’s gone out, the spark has died, look at me, I’m all grown up.

Metastasizing panic in these veins, I’ve bastardized uneasiness within.
Anesthetized and paralysed, demoralised.

At home at last, shut the door, draw the blinds and draw a blank.
Forget me, I’m lost at sea, I’m anywhere I need to be.

Metastasizing panic in these veins, I’ve bastardized uneasiness within.
Anesthetized and paralysed, demoralised.

Bereft of faith in anything, under the weight of everything.

Wait for me a minute, I'll scream your prayers and hope they have been heard.

Bereft of faith in anything, under the weight of everything.
Bereft of faith in anything, under the weight of everything.
But wait for me a minute, I could crawl a flight of broken stairs.
Wait for me a minute, think of me when you say your prayers, and I will stick to these walls.

The sun is hanging in the sky, but I don’t want to go outside.

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
