1. The Origin of the Muse
I sing of the muse
My oar strikes the sea
Christ can't save me
Christ ran from me
I'm facing the gods
Now let the myth begin
Christ can't save me
Christ ran from me
I walked in the loneliest deserts
For forty days and forty nights
Wondering if I'd find my family
In the pitiless dunes of self-doubt
A choir of angels appeared
At the 4 corners of my earth
Bring meaning to my life
Bring darkness into light
We're from the dust of stars
How much truth is there to life?
Will the glory of Greece bring order to this life?
Come walk the edge with me
The glory of Greece destroyed by your father
Most have Jerusalem
Who needs Athens?
I myself when young
Did ask the saints of life
They said he wept for me
A crown of shame for me
Will the glory of Christ bring order to this life?
Come walk the edge with me
The glory of Greece destroyed by your father
Most have Jerusalem
Who needs Athens?
The storm of my birth, the haze hereafter
Lost in the forest I can't find light
The storm of my birth, the haze hereafter
Most have Jerusalem
Who needs Athens?
Come walk the edge with me
The truth, it lies in me
The force that forms and shapes
Brings order to this life
Now ask your saints of life
Now ask your saints of life!
2. My Lost Melody
3. The Sons of Heaven
Those whom heaven helps
We call the sons of heaven
They do not learn this by learning
We, uncertain ones
I call the last of ancients
We only reason with reason
I will join the cursed on the lathe of heaven
You will find me cursed on the lathe of heaven
Find me cursed on the lathe of heaven
I myself when young did ask the world of this life
I came out the door that I went in
I will join the cursed on the lathe of heaven
You will find me cursed on the lathe of heaven
Find me cursed on the lathe of heaven
4. Aviva I
5. Atma
Do I know you from this cold life?
Soulfulfilling love
Colors like no one
I feel I met you before this life
I will find you
I met you before I was flesh
Only you are real
Look beyond mankind
We walk beyond the thoughts of Man
I will find you
And if a soul is to know a soul...
We walk the same spiritual land
You are my twin flame
We need you to be
We wake beyond the world of Man
When we meet again, this journey will end
I know you are there
Just reach out my hand
The warm harbor of truth you send
And if a soul is to know a soul...
6. Artemis
In the name of sacrifice
Embrace the art of letting go
In the name of Goddess touch
Embrace the winds into the womb
My first steps to be born
Embrace the art I need to know
Under your soft darkened clouds
Flowered the wind into the womb
I don't need anyone
I don't love anyone
The betraying kiss of lies
Did Judas tempt me to touch her womb?
Highest of divinities
I worship you before your womb
On the plains of Nysa I lay
When I awake I mourn alone
Love will take me far from home
Embrace the art of letting go
I don't need anyone
I don't love anyone
Artemis, please be kind to me
My own wolves will soon devour me
Artemis, please be kind to me
My own wolves will devour me
Artemis, teach me to feel
Artemis, teach me to hate
I beg of you, sweet Artemis!
7. A Gathering of Shades
8. Sirens
9. I Have Sailed With Odysseus
Returning from Greece
I sat by an angel from east
He brought forth what's purest in me
Thank you for this day of grace
Walk on icy shores
Look east once more
Perhaps we were friends
Perhaps I am lost at sea
My voyage won't end
I lay here alone
Behind this stone
These statues are friends
These statues so cold hold me
In land of the dead
Your soul full of colors of the sun over Kashmir
Were you sent by the gods?
I miss this old friend
Pure love you send
Holy shrine of grace
Holy shrine of love you send
In land of Kulu
It's time to find home
Rollaway this stone
To love life again
Love like when I was young
A new day begins
Your soul full of colors of the sun over Kashmir
Were you sent by the gods?
Returning to Greece
A circle of light from the east
Here am I, what's purest in me
Sing with my saving grace
10. The Dawn of New Athens
11. The Garden I Long For
