Name: Allegiance
Duration: P00H03M37S
Description: The original plan was to feature a soundscape of chant-samplings from across the globe during the middle section ("lightness and darkness for all"), but this proved too technically challenging for the short period of time allotted to record the album. The clarinet takes on the responsibility of trying to raise a voice to the Unknowable.

lyrics

This is a pledge of allegiance to this planet
United with the moon and the stars
And to my life for which it lends
This chance
Among souls so divisible
With lightness
And darkness
For all.
