DIONYSOS
Above the tears
before the scream
invisible and secret scar
the true salvation is the human voice
beloved voice of the past
the forever stifled voice
tender echoes
lost calls
miserable voice

whispering voice
incantations
immaterial instrument
attentive mother's darkness lighting lullaby
sterile silence cruel disease
the despotic gag of hate
unfailing welcome to the voice
be welcome

attractive red fruit of the mouth
dangerous message on my skin
ether so fluid lighter than air
shy caress of fleeting brides' veils on the throat
forbidden kisses to drink
tyrannic siren
virtuoso a cappella or moderato cantabile
vocal pleasure pleasure vocal
it's the real way to be drunk
to desert the commonplace
sacred bluesy profane
I am slave to the voice

unfailing welcome to the voice
in every tone a poignant oath
voices to pray to fly to escape
harmonised
the sublimation of our hopes
spiritual vehicle of thought
the voices bond us
I love the voice
Unfailing Welcome To The Voice (unreleased cover)
