1. Music For The Night

Look at the watchman on the grave
This golden angel without wings
Under his feet she will be safe
His silent singing, freedom it brings

This is music for the night
A trip through darkness into light
Homewards into our purest souls
Where liberty the mind controls
This is music for the night
Tender tunes shall be our guide
Songs of redemption, songs of gloom
Now greatest thoughts, they all shall bloom

Look how the watchman, free from sin,
Calls out eternity for just one day
Wisdom he kept safe deep within
And for the watchman's grace I pray

Look how the watchman without sound
Proclaims the things which are concealed
Magnificence is all around
As the great nothing is revealed

2. Drift

When Bacchus weeps his song of joy
and conducts us into his realm
thou won't feel pain, nor grief, oh boy
when wisdom's patterns overwhelm

He cuts his veins for us all night
A lovely comforter, his blood
Oh Bacchus, save our love and light
In times of vintage, the red flood

Drift, drift, drifting away
The cosmic semen will lead you, my dear
Drift, drift, drifting away
For you the vineyards cry a golden tear

When Bacchus weeps his song of sleep
We yearn to dwell on a distant star
At white walls splendid paintings creep
Reflections of ourselves they are

This state of mind, divine it seems
Our clarity becomes the prey
Estrangement from thy common dreams
when sorrows slowly drift away...

3. Phantastronaut

Surrealism in the realm of gold
Beyond the sundown on delicious fields
Sorrows fall apart, we have been told
When suppressed thoughts all lay down their shields

Strange perception, would you lead me
To the edge of reality
Let's surf along the Milky Way
Into the distance, far away

Phantastronaut, astronaut in my own mind
In a cosmic sleep, deep inside of me
Phantastronaut, astronaut in my own mind
Through golden tunnels I will flee

In my spirit's radiant empire
Rimbaud's universal tongue is spoken
This is the realm of water, air and fire
Daylight's gone, materialism's broken

Like a solitary dancer
Who never learnt to fall
Like the sweetest of romancers
Who was never loved at all
I'll escape into the depths of space
Like a star-ship which is drunken
My soul shall be the action's place
In Orpheus' realm I am sunken...

4. River Of Perdition

Here, the slight souls hang around
and scream like bats in condemnation
I listen to their desperate sound
In the floods of devastation

This is the land called Tartaros
where I wandered through the mire
Chased by visions, grief and loss
Across the fields of death and fire

River of Perdition,
With my harp I sing this song for you!
Oh River Styx, don't you hear my words?
River of Perdition,
Without harm let me pass through!
Oh River Styx, I want to fly like the birds

The river washes our souls away
Into greedy Hades, which I detest
Heroes and fools shall be an equal prey
For hungry waters streaming west

Athirst for spirits, flesh and skin
A watery movie scene is all I see
Relights the mirror deep within
and conducts my dim memory

5. Underground Poetry

Alone with a taste of eternity
Infernal pressure breaks my will
I'm caught here with myself and me
Down underground I'm waiting still

Above I hear the flowers grow
Stretching into the northern space
All through my bony hands it flows
The sand of time, it leaves no trace

Reaching out to heaven
While the earth dances with the sun
It seems the last hour of day seven
With a silent raindrop has begun

Writing this poem underground
Where silence is the only sound
Lines about decay and demise
Deep underground I will be wise

Looking through blackness everywhere
Deep down into the heart of all
Into oblivion's throat I stare
From where the swallowed flowers call

Watching with the electric eye
The impressive hour I was born
When the sun comes to kiss goodbye
For withered flowers I will mourn

6. Madrigal

Only imaginations free the mind
From death and grief of any kind
Melissa's soul lies not below the ground
In darkest tombs she can't be found

Free your reasoning and thought
From decay and the ego's dark desire
Eternal wisdom can't be taught
It has to rise like phoenix from the fire

The space between salvation and man's harm
Eternity and world, finger and arm
is pure deception, see it in yourself

Of every truth the opposite is true as well
Just listen to the winds, they have a lot to tell
Follow your love into the height of spiritual wealth

7. L'Avion Ivre

As I flew through indifferent clouds
The pilots slept in liquid beds
From roaring seas I heard their shouts
Dead men turned magic blue to red

Winds carried me through rain and thought
Towards the eastern paradise
My broken wings, freedom they brought
Let me roam freely in splendid skies

A star-ship hovering alert
On through the waves of time and place
Released from all the worldly hurt
In the infinite depths of space...

I danced upon the stratosphere
Where icy winds my engines froze
A sailor without grief and fear
To live a life of joy I chose

Once drowned in the poetic night
Safe inside heaven's canopy
Like tender lovers the sunlight
In gentle hours embraced me

Eternal storm, it blows me home
Into oblivion deep down
Wherever aeroplanes may roam
Liquid soft clouds are my crown

8. Asteroid YB5

Genuine greatness he will see
On his journey with the cosmic hearse
From the depths of infinity
Into the centre of the universe

Like children of a distant sun
Racing fast through time and space
Mother's birth has just begun
Stardust fields reflect her face

Hey, passing asteroid YB5
For one moment just hold on
Tell me of your long, long life
Tomorrow we will all be gone

Along the planets of fiery ice
Timeless oceans in the empty room
Within the stellar paradise
Eternity will always bloom

She renews herself still constantly
The great self which will always grow
Created life, mother galaxy
Her cosmic pulse is beating low

9. Firebird

Drown your sorrows in golden tears
when the boiling blood blasts your head
The biting heat tell all your fears
when silent nights all turn to red

Burn your flesh, take off your skin
Throw down your mind into the void
Souls will be cleansed from deep within
Whilst the cold limbs are destroyed

Falling, falling into the heart of all
As I stare into the southern drain
Watching, watching myself as I fall
As I climb across the cosmic strain

And when finally the firebird
Is rising from a flaming heat
The human soul, free and alert
In cleansing flames, his God will meet

Painting silhouettes upon the sky
Like the image of a melting soul
The burning ghosts suppress a cry
In fire's depths my life is whole

I breathe in white sparks to be free
Colours and passion fill the mind
Slither into purest ecstasy
Solstice is near, wisdom I'll find...

10. Moondrawn Awakening

Across the sands of all our dreams
what fertile water westwards streams,
followed by the sun's flaming sword,
Poseidon, take good care, oh watery lord.

She trudges, drags and shoves her load,
Early sunrays opening her throat.
A tide so moondrawn in her wake,
while furious waves the silence break.

Blood not mine, a wine-dark sea at noon,
behold the handmaid of the moon.
In sleep the wet signs call her hour,
bid her arise, bed of death, ghost-candled flower.

He comes, the palest vampire,
his eyes through storm and fire,
his bat sails bloodying the ocean's bliss.
Mouth to his mouth's kiss.

11. Proteus

Do thoughts need eyes to exist,
Or is the mind just a sham?
Reflections try to resist:
"I think therefore I am!"

Sometimes Proteus comes to the beach
Changing shape on shores of dry blood
Sometimes silent waves find speech
And turn to a furious flood...

While waves are dancing let's walk home
Into the western ocean alone

Out of water we came
Vast oceans will have sealed
Men's fate without shame
When being is revealed

Sometimes a wave finds speech
and slays the spirits it can't reach...

12. Zeitgeist

Constantly beats the spirit of the age
It steals my sense for time and place
The godly origin is free from rage
Peacefully, it's outlasting our days

In warm wombs where golden honey flows
I'm save from harm and from decline
Out of the purest will a body grows
Down here in the origin of mine

From glassy caskets we admire
Our own birth from desire
Oh tree of life, give us your fruit
We shall detect and not ask 'why'
Inside the red womb all is mute
When pure existence turns to 'I'...

Rivers of blood float fast through me
Like an everlasting stream of love
With blinded eyes I'm able to see
Without ears I hear the voices from above

So I expose my words and sins
In emptiness they shall be free
Cause death is where all life begins
When we look into eternity

Buried in our mother's womb
Where velvet is a tender tomb
Oh tree of life, give us your fruit
Let it fall down and hit the ground
Inside the red cave all is mute
Come hear the silence, what a sound!

13. April Mourning

They told me you will not return
This sad conception hurts
Joy it was our sole concern
"I love you" your last words

Desire fades,
I thought we'd be forever
Memory's realm
will keep our hearts together

Teardrops in a candlelight
Nightly silence breaks my will
Grief and loneliness inside
White roses wither on my window sill

Spring and its crying melody
A bloody sea for you I weep
I can't forget your elegy
Show me the way and please
let me find sleep

14. Song Of The Nightingale

I carry the roses of love
With blood on my hands
It's raining headstones from above
A sign my poor soul understands

I fight a war against sad thoughts
Till someone comes to dry my tears
My mournful world the dream distorts
Let me find a haven for my fears

Where are you tonight,
As I'm dying deep within myself?
Still you hesitate,
We've got a vision of a war to fight...!

Above the roves, the nightingale
Sings of decease and love, so pure
Look at my heart, it becomes pale
This sadness deep inside I cannot endure

Seek to reverse malignity
Lovelorn wounds are all I find
Please sing a hymn of joy for me
I need it to release mind

Like a dancer in degeneration
Exhibitionistic and malign
Let me find illumination
Melissa, please give me a sign

Brother of sleep,
Send me your ashen kiss
and cover my face with a shroud
Full of joy let me creep
through the valleys of bliss
Pure spirits they are free and proud

15. Nuit En Enfer

(инструментал)

16. Colourado Mindtrip

A psychic gravity I defy
While the body takes off to fly
Energetic streams, they run through me
Eradicate the unbound limbs for free
To the borders of imagination
Perpetual movement, no stagnation

I'm a sailor in the liquid spheres of mind
That's where I create my own reality
In this Colourado all that I can find
Is one single moment in eternity

Into the river of faces thou shalt dive
To see the various forms of life
Existence is a constant flow
Hundreds and thousands come and go
They all change and they renew
Within a moment, just like you!

In darkened temples where the spirits rise
and blue spotlights guide the wanderer's path.
Silence is loud, fire is as cold as ice
and love's a cure for my life's aftermath

Can't distinguish one voice from the other
Groans of the dying ones, still they bother
The cheerful from the weeping, screams of wrath,
Lamentations of the longing, caught in death

Every single voice has its own story to tell. There are old
men, unborn babies, happy children, wretched women and
joyful girls. And some spirits even look like trees and flowers.
But the process of realization in Elias marches on, and in the
light which swallows everything he catches the sight of Melissa's
face. Blurred and glassily but yet beautiful like a princess and as
brightly as a star she smiles at him. Distant and yet so close he
feels her presence and feels every word she speaks more intensely
than ever before:

"Elias, my beloved, oh don't you look so sad at me,
splendour is not just in thoughts and words,
the magnitude of life you have to see!
Go on my dear, although the farewell hurts!"

17. Space Sound Park

These are the golden fields of God
Where energy is pure and spirits reign
This is a gathering of light and thought
Eternal beauty without grief and pain

Pictures are changing with closed eyes
Fantasy is a delicious guide
Through material worlds in disguise
With the astral body on a ride

A space sound park (is dazzling my clarity)
It's calling from interior depths
A space sound park (full of melody)
With closed eyes and constant breaths

Dance on velvet fields of love
With the past and future ideas
Across the orbits like a foreign dove
Far away into the brightest spheres

Self-created physical phenomena
Death seems to be an infinite dream
Alpha and Omega is what we are
Consciousness it will redeem

While bizarre movies dance outside the head
Three-dimensional orders re-establish finally
Awaking cold and sweating at her bed
About to enter the physical reality

18. Penelope

This goes out to the one I love
With you I had the loveliest days
This goes out to my handsome dove
I think of you on all my ways

Can't catch my lovesick mind in words
It's you who gives my spirit wealth
To feel your cold limbs, oh, it hurts
I'm crying to express myself

Let's light a fire, just to make you shine
I see your face in every light
In silence with you I feel fine

I think of you, a lonely night
And feel your soft kiss on my spine
Dead bodies only dreams unite
