Three Dreams 04:32
I think, I dreamed of falling leaves, Of wide forests and dark lakes, Of sad words' echo - However, I could not understand their meaning. I think, I dreamed of falling stars, Of the weeping entreaty of pale eyes, Of a smile's echo - However, I could not understand its meaning. Like falling leaves, like falling stars, So I saw myself eternally coming and going, A dream's immortal echo - However, I could not understand its meaning.
2.
Eternity 04:51
It has been found again. What? – Eternity. It is the sea fled away With the sun. Sentinel soul, Let us whisper the confession Of the night full of nothingness And the day on fire. From humain approbation, From common urges You diverge here And fly off as you may. Since from you alone, Satiny embers, Duty breathes Without anyone saying: at last. Here is no hope, No orietur. Knowledge and fortitude, Torture is certain. It has been found again. What? – Eternity. It is the sea fled away With the sun.

Dionysus 04:38
I bring ye wine from above, From the vats of the storied sun; For every one of yer love, And life for every one. Ye shall dance on hill and level; Ye shall sing in hollow and height In the festal mystical revel, The rapurous Bacchanal rite! I kindle a flame like a torrent To rush from star to star; Your hair as a comet’s horrent, Ye shall see things as they are! I lift the mask of matter; I open the heart of man; For I am of force to shatter The cast that hideth -Pan! That is set for wrath and weeping Against the children of earth; But ye in singing and sleeping Shall pass in measure and mirth! I lead you, lord of the maze, In the darkness free of the sun; In spite of the spite that is day’s We are wed, we are wild, we are one.

A place to rest isn't given to us. Suffering humans decline and blindly fall from one hour to the next, like water thrown from cliff to cliff, year after year, down into the Unknown
5.
Animus 04:36
Oh thee whose love sentenced me for eternal life Doomed with immortal flame to set and rise Whose eyes shines brighter than the thousand Suns And Moon and Stars from thee derive their lights Forbidden lands of Unity divine Where Sun is sparkling in the Poet’s vine Where blood of Gods is beating in the lovers veins Where lustrous spirits dwell and Fire reigns
6.
With UNholy voice I call the stars on high, Pure sacred lights and genii of the sky. Celestial stars, the progeny of Night, In whirling circles beaming far your light, Refulgent rays around the heav'ns ye throw, Eternal fires, the source of all below. In seven bright zones ye run with wand'ring flames, And heaven and earth compose your lucid frames: With course unwearied, pure and fiery bright Forever shining thro' the veil of Night. These sacred rites regard with conscious rays, And end our works devoted to your praise.
7.
The Return 04:58
Looking at the darkened skies Blind and deaf to all your prayers I hold the keys To invoke Atlantis Hidden under the waters of consciousness Gazing into the ardent Sun Which shines but for the few I hold the keys To invoke Olympus Hidden in the heights of awareness No words of truth Are left unspoken For completeness we strive The seals of creations Now are broken Into the depths we dive And there’s no chance to stay alive.

about

The new Lamia Vox album, named "Alles ist Ufer. Ewig ruft das Meer (Everything is shore. The sea calls forever)" after the Gesänge poem by Gottfried Benn, bears a spiritual message, a counterblast, an antagonism to the rationality and greedy materialism of the post-theist and nihilistic age.

Inspired by the Early Modern poetry, Hermetic ideas, Fin-de-siècle Symbolism and Naturphilosophie, this album celebrates another world, one of the higher dimensions, beyond the human sphere, a world of intoxicated and ecstatic alchemy of poetic language and ideas. The upward movement, a breakthrough from the bonds of materia straight to the source of life and eternity.
Dionysian liberating lawlessness opposes the sterile rationalism. The creativity, divine madness, metanoia as a form of ultimate salvation.

Poetry is always a sailing: it is the secret recipe, the process and the laboratory of the Magnum Opus, a divine gift of deliberated madness.
