She searches the extreme
in every part of herself,
no barriers can keep her
from realizing her dreams
There are vast powers in man
which normally are unknown,
lying latent deep inside,
hidden for them to see

[Chorus]

Reach the insurmountable, limits exceeded
She is the one that has competence
I am growing wilder,
I am leaving what I was in
I am glowing brighter,
I have the power to win

She is glowing brighter,
she has the power to win

I am diving deep against all currents,
I make the water circulate

She uses all abilities in herself,
she finds strength in the
deepest gaps of her nature
The secret to gain all the
is unveiled in situations
where they are vital

[Chorus]

Unthinkable, enormous and obscure force

Was it for real what she just did?
She seems bewitched, with unlimited powers
Are such actions controlled and deliberate?

Malignant I penetrate your soul,
Invoking you with witchery

She is moving faster
into another condition
filled by penetrating metaphysics
Sometimes man goes too far
abusing their latent forces
Then it might be too late
to regret their recent actions

[Chorus]

I am growing wilder,
I am leaving what I was in
I make the fire
wherein new life will begin

And after twilight
when every colour turns grey,
with my abilities
I see a different way

I have the wisdom
To see the dark as a light,
I view the truth of
Enigmatic colours of night


2. Miserere Mei

[Music: Myriads, Lyrics: Alexander Twiss and Mona Undheim Skottene]

Like the falling star on the firmament
I view the vast horizon
Planets drift by in the nebula
Grand movements paralyze me
My reflection seem to be endless

Embellished thoughts of limitless
starlight gather
The outer rim of sanity
Path of destiny
Proud forest rises towards the sky,
in awe I stand silent
Green path of life amalgamates
With my own belief

[Chorus]
Follow me further through
This flight of chaos
In misery and pain I am,
I wander through this cherished path
In despair I am pitiful,
haunted by a brooding doubt
Please assuage this agony
and wash away my misery,
into great oceans and grand seas
where the source of life began

Melting into the universe
being part of the cosmos
The starless night embraces me
My thoughts are bewildered
Am I misplaced here in this world,
alone in my grief?
Procreate life and let it grow
in outlandish landscapes
Feeling subordinated,
outshined by earth

[Chorus]

Miserere mei Deus
Secundum magnam
misericordiam tuam
et secundum multitudinem
miserationum tuarum
dele iniquitatem meam

Anguish in me, kills me, relieves me

I weaken now compared to nature
I am nothing, please bear with me

Upon this fertile planet
I stand in broad daylight
I am caressed gently by a sun which
enlightens my mind
It never perceived my shadow
nor my grief and my sorrow
I am merging into the fire
Cosmic unity

[Chorus]

Am I infused by the earth?
Did the world have a birth?
Life filled by fertility
in an astral unity
Elements perpetually,
circling eternally

Affliction in me, helps me, relieves me

Like the falling star on the firmament
I am the great horizon
Planets drift by in the nebula
Grand movements encapsulate me
The universe seems to be endless


3. Inside

[Music and Lyrics: Alexander Twiss and Mona Undheim Skottene]

As I look inside my self,
I long to find a way
I close my eyes;
still images are streaming
To disclose the core of my self,
I long to find a way
I close my mind
but still the thoughts are floating

Inside of me
I listen to a silent sound
behind my memories
I am striving to see inside of me
To solve my bewilderment
and let it flow like energy
Revealing my personality

The path to my thoughts and my soul
This maze is leading me
Inside of me
I am yearning to perceive myself

I am embraced
with my own intelligence
That obstructs me
From finding the sanctum


4. The Sanctum Of My Soul

[Music: Mona Undheim Skottene, Alexander Twiss, J.P. and Mikael Skotdal, Lyrics: Mona Undheim Skottene and Alexander Twiss]

Now I feel my mind is in a fever,
infected with diseases from an alien source

[Chorus]
What is consciousness?
A portrait of your self?
Can mind exist alone
and leave all material boundaries?

Recognize the substance that surrounds me
Locked in an embrace that is not really me

[Chorus]

Soul, feelings, body

Endless, perceived, limited

Imagine your body departed from your soul,
still you have control of your thoughts
Don't need any sense perceptions,
impressions based on rationality

Can you exceed time and space?

I see my thoughts are enemies
Viewing my mind from inside of me

[Chorus]

When every elemental part of my mind
is reacting slower, I retreat inside
Disregarding all space and time
My integrity is clarified
Changing my condition
I depart from my consciousness
In this atmosphere
the anxieties are less
I am drawing nearer
the sanctum of my soul
Inside me


5. Portal To The Mind

[Music: Myriads, Lyrics: Alexander Twiss and Mona Undheim Skottene]

As I dwell upon my own state
feelings emanate like a flowing stream
Strings of energy race through me
Feverish images spin through my brain
Gliding further into a stupor
Your limbs are getting weaker,
approaching the unknown
Closing a trance-like state
where surrealism reigns;
limitless and beyond,
your flight will soon begin

[Chorus]
Into my own world
Delving into the sanctum of my soul
Disclosing what's beyond

Losing the grip of reality,
worries relieved by my fantasy
Senses tell me that I am falling
backwards into a world within me
Losing all contact with reality
Your breath is getting slower,
into an even rhythm
Surrealistic impressions
drags you further into the great void

[Chorus]

Falling into a profound sleep
I gradually find a revelation
from deep intuition and creativity
I am comprehending mental parts
that normally are hidden
Is my dreamy mind a portal
to the mysteries inside me?

I am dragged down by strong back-currents,
feeling desperate and in dismay

Volcanic eruptions appear
and persecute your moving self
Cyclone drags you up and drops you down
from greatest heights
Thunderstorms and lightning
frighten you to death
Great tide ruins your footing,
you are losing all control

Claustrophobic manifestations
are closing in on me

Dark moor, slowly sinking
You are stuck, legs can't move
Mud covers your body and your eyes
You are choking, but breathe without air
Blinded by dirt in your eyes
Consider yourself in a world
without sense perception

Follow our breath,
we will embody you
We will dry your heart
with oil in water

Subtle glimmerings cover me,
I have empyreal visions in my misty thoughts
Filled with doubt I am astonished,
nebulous escape from reality
You have lost control of your presence
Transcendental landscapes
exceed time and space
Emancipated from all borders,
you are present in perpetual dreams

[Chorus]

Melting into subterranean
Reduse myself with sorcery,
floating heavily in lethargy

In the misty underground
shadows emanate
and evaporate like eidolon
Shapes are minimalized,
flash before your eyes,
eldritch people you knew in the past,
now separated from your common life,
indelibly stamped on your memory
Reveal your bad acts and thoughts
How do you square it
with your conscience?

It's raining drops of music
as the water falls down into the abyss,
sounding like the rhythm of a drum
It gets my feet to the dance around
in valleys and ravines,
I hear the soft vibration
from the shaking aspen leaves
It seems to me as a lovely lullaby,
and suddenly the sky
is glowing all in white
Above me a family of swans are gliding
The wind blowing colder,
feathers are falling and cover my body
softly while I rest on wings

Into my eyes, into my heart
I do absorb and subsist on
experiences and perceptions
that fills my mind and inner thoughts
I am in a world beyond my thoughts
where impressions stabilize my composure
Rejoin my life, the moments
of time I neglected
Why do I dream in profound sleep?
I cannot solve these mysteries
Humanity and the universe
are in a cosmic unity
When the occurrences are colouring
my dreams and hidden thoughts,
It's like I am guided through different states
concealed from my awakened mind


6. Falling In The Equinox

[Music and Lyrics: Alexander Twiss and Mona Undheim Skottene]

Lunar baby
Glooming shadows
cover you softly where you rest
on the mossy ground

Bathing in dew you dwell
Do not fear, the sparrows
will guard your nest

Until October storms arise
In autumnal equinox,
maple leaves are falling
and caress your body

In the deepest forest you lie,
pale and alone
Leaves conceal your skin,
even your bright eyes are hidden

Sparrows cannot see you now
You do not manage on your own,
and soon the frost will
penetrate your tender body

Snow is falling in winter
Flakes of crystal snow
land on your sweet brow
A star has fallen


7. Flickering Thoughts

[Music: Myriads, Lyrics: Alexander Twiss and Mona Undheim Skottene]

Frames of truth,
I can see the falseness lying in thee,
fills me with confusion and distrust
Innocence,
I can see the wildness figured in thee,
reject the pose of injured chastity
Quietness,
I can feel the energies emission,
precluding a stagnation of time

Justify the truth which keeps my feet on the ground
I am hidden in a veil of distrust and speculation
With my own eyes I see through falseness and betrayal,
with my own eyes

[Chorus]

There are no extremities around you
Everything is influenced by an opposite
There are no purities and perfectibilities
There are no words of admonition

You are imposing your thoughts on others,
excluding their help and ideas without reflection
You will be confined,
your reality is overthrown
Purity within my innocent presence
I strive to live in virtuousness and reject indolence and delusion
Without wildness I live in perfect harmony,
without wildness

[Chorus]

Who are you to impose your thoughts and conceptions on others?
You exist in false dreams and lies without veracity
Predilection for yourself and your derelict ideas
Deepened in your depraved world within your mind

Do you really trust yourself, omniscient,
pure and unaffected, following your own axioms?

One can imagine the pure ideas of all states,
but they do not really exist uninfluenced

In silence the falling snow fortifies my feelings
In solitude I am comfortable without energies around me
Drifting into a timeless world without limitations,
a timeless world

[Chorus]

I am on the dark side of the earth in perpetual night
I am all alone with my shadow following my eyes
I am longing for the sun touching my callous coldness
Lost connection with ground, feeling a stagnation of time

Like the mirror of water reflecting his shadow in his eyes,
painted on the waves when they rise
Looks for a place for landing, there is no place to settle down
Fly into the clouds higher above

I am on the dark side of the earth in perpetual night
I am all alone with my shadow following my eyes
I am longing for the sun touching my callous coldness
Lost connection with ground, feeling a stagnation of time

Flying higher in my wildness,
far away from this place
My thoughts are flickering in a maze
Of wisdom and insanity

Flying higher in his wildness,
far away from this place
His thoughts are flickering in a maze
of wisdom and insanity


8. Encapsulated

[Music: Myriads, Lyrics: Alexander Twiss and Mona Undheim Skottene]

Like the mirror of water reflecting his shadow in his eyes,
painted on the waves when they rise
Looks for a place for landing, there is no place to settle down
Fly into the clouds higher above

This chaotic path in life influences my callous mind,
it dwells in the deepest chasms amongst the shadows
Your subtle thoughts create a poor absurd vision
which enslaves you in this maze of madness and wisdom
Hear, the wind tries to reach him, but surrounded by the
walls of air, fearless is he, his weakness must be held inside

[Chorus]

Once he saw the golden daylight rising high
Now with the earth he circles to follow the darkened light

I am yearning to relinquish
this haze of demented illusions
I feel parted to the irrecognizable
by multiple mirrors which are scattered everywhere
Moving through the vault, suddenly your approach yourself
Which token will guide you in this portal of the absurd?
He is confined in a room between this broken mirror,
twists the facts does his acts 'companied by the echoes of himself

[Chorus]

Blurred focus, blinded eyes
Thoughts devoured, eternal hunger
Lost judgement, reason declines
Blackened vision, hope dies

His final common sense will soon be impoverished
by his untamable and self-destructive urge
For him it seems like human souls scream in vain and agony
Delusions and false dreams tear sanity apart
Ray of light hits myriads of mirrors scattered everywhere,
reflected back it hits his eyes and lays his mind waste forever

I strive to break down the barrier which circles around me
and have the possibility to sense your world
Detached from reality and isolated in his world,
he is lost for all time in a portal of the absurd
Does not know there is a shadow drifting over his
filmed eyes, keeps the light from his simple blinkered sight

[Chorus]


9. The Ascent

[Music: Alexander Twiss, Mona Undheim Skottene, J.P. and Rudi Junger, Lyrics: Mona Undheim Skottene and Alexander Twiss]

I am rising over the raindrops,
on the roof of glimmering rivers
Dancing softly to burn all the sorrows,
on the clouds where starlight always shines

I am rising over the raindrops,
on the roof of glimmering rivers
Dancing softly to burn all the sorrows,
on the clouds where sun always shines
