It's hard to learn sometimes
When it's you and yourself
Stuck inside your head
With hard feelings
It's hard to see sometimes
When it's just one road
Blinded by the sun
Lost the seeds you've sewn
But something is stirring out there
It's something unrecognized
Building and building
Throughout the night
Around the world
Around the wall
Nothing is uncharted
But something is always new
Around the tempest
Around the hurricane
Nothing is unlimited
But something is always true
It's funny how things happen
One person cannot reconcile
Stuck at the second hurdle
Wanting to stop
No matter what the amplitude
We must be the ones who mourn
For those who can't make it
Surrendered to their own
But something is stirring out there
Something unrecognized
Building and building
Throughout the night
Around the world
Around the wall
Nothing is uncharted
But something is always new
Around the tempest
Around the hurricane
Nothing is unlimited
But something is always true
It is, it was
The us and them
In the midst of a battle
Was it worth the price to fight
Around the world
Around the wall
Nothing is uncharted
But something is always new
Around the tempest
Around the hurricane
Nothing is unlimited
But something is always true

Almost lost
One generation come and gone
Second nature to discover
First among the global culture
And to that end
Saying it again and again
Concentration of a believer
First to be the real truth seeker
At the end of history
He thinks about the living earth and
Never a source to emulate
We live where others simulate
Studying the past
But prepared for any possibility
In physics or astronomy
It seems we've lost all autonomy
Concentration of the masses
He's an immigrant and a globalist
Actively promoting
Foreign and domestic he'll invest
The Futurist at the end of time
Change the world just like Einstein
Live and learn and you'll see the truth
Old and gray but still in youth

What are we to do
About all of these shantytowns
The people who live in filth and squalor
While we stood high above the ground
In our airship safe at last
We discuss the days of past
Lying in wait for a savior to come
Just as the ancient world is gone
"You haven't done anything to help the poor"
"That's none of my concern," replied the man in the door
"My future lies with the prowess of technology
Unlike you, with your political fantasies"
The Socialist frowned
For he knew he was outwit
Outmanned and outgunned
By industrial spirit
For the entire round table is ill-prepared
Motivated by self-interest
All doomed to fail
Except for one
That is the Futurist
Having been to the mountaintop
Seen the secrets of the world
"I propose a solution
To save the human race
But I am no god, nor prophet, nor priest
We shall look towards the stars
Build something for all
The possibilities are endless
After Eden's fall"
The men debated and meddled
Over the outrageous proposition
Wealth and disparity
Clashed over condition
And so the motion was passed
The plans had been made
And the roles of the world
Had all now been played
When faced with the wall
Who will stumble and fall
And who will arise
To crumble it all

Leviathan

Towering over the sea
A vehicle for victory
Ready for departure
Heading for the future
Space and time is endless
The journey has just begun
Flying away on an iron carriage
On a course around the sun
Preparing for the endless night
Batten down the hatches
The salvation of humanity
Turns us all to ashes
The Futurist and the Leviathan
Iconic as they are
In this cosmic community
Among eternal stars
One consciousness together
Soar across the galaxy
A new creation a genesis
Beyond the human gallery
Voyage of the Bio-ship
Into realms beyond our own
Weaving through the constellations
Conscious of our configurations
The heart of space shall welcome us
As immortal now we are
The human race united
At what cost, we were divided
In the midst of the endless night
Tighten down the shudders
The salvation of humanity
We must not betray our brothers
The Futurist and the Leviathan
Iconic as they are
A driving force for progress
Among eternal stars
One consciousness together
Soar across the galaxy
A new creation, a genesis
To the end of time we seek

Awaken from my slumber
Stand up to find I can only fall over
My feet are the axis
The pendulum is my head
I lay down, I expand
I try to put the tool in my hand
Deep space beckons unto me
And I must heed its call
For if I chose to stay behind
Like the world, I would fall
I don't feel anything
No more burning, screaming
I lie in my contentness
And dissolve
Into the universe's endlessness

I. Overture (Instrumental)
II. The Aether
The council of Olympus
Dwells upon the future
There is no better time nor better place
To discuss their immortality
The destruction of a realm is imminent
With their power they can save
The question is of the earth
And whether it’s worth saving
Zeus and Athena clash with words
As Aries prepares for war
The pantheons are opening
Fighting is drawing near
Access to the mythos of Time
Across the universe
Every deity will be there for
The Battle of the Heavens
The Battle of the Heavens
III. Birth of Marcus
On Earth as it is in Heaven
Uncertainty and fear reign
As the atmosphere is crumbling
There is judgement, there is pain
As war wages high above
From Valhalla to Olympus
A savior is made, not by choice
But by necessity
I am Marcus: creation of the Gods
I live to serve, to protect and fight
For the humans against the Forces of Night
IV. Marcus and Hades
And so this beast was created
Yet the humans knew not so
Their perception of ethereal war
Was of natural Armageddon
Hades strikes from the underworld
And Marcus there to meet him
With an army of Daemons and Monsters
The battle of the Earth commences
And as the humans suffer
Not a single one survives
Except for those who gained the knowledge
Beyond their own dimension
Earth and Heaven become one in the same
As Hell’s darkness descends
A crack within the pantheons
Release the monsters of all nightmares
V. Desolation
And so the gods observed what they had done
In the end they accepted their fate
Having given up on Marcus
the last hope for humanity
They retreated to their dwellings
Olympus cold and empty now
A far cry from the lost reality
when they were on top of the world
Taken over at the end
'Twas not the forces of evil
But those of greed and suffering
desolate and unfulfilled
VI. Reconciliation
Like the generations of leaves, the lives of mortal men
Now the wind scatters the old leaves across the earth
Now the living timber bursts with the new buds
And spring comes round again
And so with men
As one generation comes to life
Another dies away

The Trial of the King
by Chromatic Aberration
supported by 6 fans who also own “Futurist at the End of Time”
This record feels like an alternate universe where Alex Lifeson and Geddy Lee were members of Yes. The overall sound palette is rich and full of retro synths, but the guitars are usually angular. The bass has a satisfying, snapping bite to it more akin to Geddy’s tone than Chris Squire’s usual overdrive.
