About the Artist
Lyrics
In a place that they say is dead In the lake that's like an ocean I count about a billion head All the time there's a motion Palace of the brine Palace of the brine I saw the cloning of the famous family I hear the droning In the shrine of the sea monkey Palace of the brine Palace of the brine Beneath reflections in the fountain The starry sky in Utah mountains They are swimming happily Can't you see? A life that's so sublime Palace of the brine
