Notes

  • "Forever" is based on "Solveig's Song", written by Edvard Grieg for his Peer Gynt Suites.
  • "Don't You Cry" is dedicated to Thomas Youngblood Sr., who died when his son was very young.
  • "Ne Pleure Pas" is essentially the same song as "Don't You Cry", only sung in French.
  • The trilogy of songs that close the album on the normal edition, "Elizabeth" I, II & III, are based on the story of Elizabeth Bathory.
  • There is silence from the end of "Fall From Grace" to 11:01. This is because Karma was Kamelot's fifth studio album and they wanted its duration to be 55:55.
