• Illusion of Lycius

Based on a poem of John Keats called "Lamia"

From all the start that set life and death / The eternal, the greatest in out tomb now falls
By the vital exchange of darkness and blood of passion and power was made our souls

If there's such a thing as truth, how it can be defined?
But what if truth does not exist? A sophist answered she is

A Lamia of elfin blood, touched by miseries
Without a human heart
She denied her immortal form, to set a mortal life
Through bargains with Hermes, through the age's strife

But I've drunk her beauty up and I felt divine / Deep inside her a king in her mortal domain
We were standing so pale but so alive / As I've cleared my self with her sacred wine

If there's such a thing as true, how it can be viewed?
How far an eye can see? A sophish answered she is

A Lamia of elfin blood, touched by miseries
Without a human heart
She denied her immortal form, to set a mortal life
Through bargains with Hermes, through the age's strife

Come master, praise the only truth and light / But the sordid nature of man, forever keep us blind

I didn't saw, I didn't search / Pompous words, sophistries of fools / Brought us to the curse

When truth and lies collide, within the chains of mind
On the edge of distant worlds a sophist condemned us both
My Phoenician queen is lost in a burial mound
And her own marriage robe becomes my death's shroud

By the waxing moon, my Psyche manifests
In its highest noon, in its erernal rest
I don't sense the time, I am nuzzling into a thule of darkness
As it lies sublime, the crossroads of thought's vastness
Assail the cosmic rule, thou who shares the reverie
Embrace me with your cruel telepathy
Crawling jaged behind thy crafty mist
As the left path shines an N.D.E.

Bright-tressed queen take me high
Spread us life, spread thy light

Embrace my soul by thy gleaming stars
Cause thou are my lost homeland
Awake to me the hidden desire, the lust for blood
And so I've praised a thousand times, I've praised Thy eternal gift

I gave my self to you
Lauded by the beasts, extolled by the wolves

Before my sight is rising full and silver
It brings delight, through the unknowns it shimmers
With your bright face, the helmet of Hades fall
His obscure veil, by your eyes is gone

So I clearly see, in her chariot she rides the sky
Awaits for me to rule the night
We ride upon the stellar vales
In places lorn, unawared and betrayed

I've reached into paranormal fields
Where the mountains nad the cave moan nocturnal screams
