The scent grows richer[00:00:01]

The Lamia (Live) - Genesis[00:00:01]

He knows he must be near[00:00:04]

He finds a long passageway[00:00:08]

Lit by chandelier[00:00:11]

Each step he takes[00:00:15]

The perfumes change[00:00:17]

From familiar fragrance[00:00:19]

To flavors strange[00:00:21]

A magnificent chamber[00:00:23]

Meets his eye[00:00:26]

Inside a long rose water pool[00:00:39]

Is shrouded by fine mist[00:00:42]

Stepping in the moist silence[00:00:46]

With a warm breeze he's gently kissed[00:00:49]

Thinking he is quite alone[00:00:54]

He enters the room as if it were his own[00:00:57]

But ripples on the sweet pink water[00:01:01]

Reveal some company unthought of[00:01:05]

Rael stands astonished[00:01:09]

Doubting his sight[00:01:12]

Struck by beauty[00:01:14]

Gripped in fright[00:01:16]

Three vermilion snakes[00:01:19]

Of female face[00:01:21]

The smallest motion[00:01:23]

Filled with grace[00:01:26]

Muted melodies[00:01:29]

Fill the echoing hall[00:01:31]

But there is no sign of warning[00:01:37]

In the siren's call[00:01:40]

"Rael welcome[00:01:47]

We are the Lamia of the pool[00:01:49]

We have been waiting[00:01:55]

For our waters to bring you cool"[00:01:56]

Putting fear beside him[00:02:44]

He trusts in beauty blind[00:02:46]

He slips into the nectar[00:02:50]

Leaving his shredded clothes behind[00:02:53]

With their tongues[00:02:58]

They test taste and judge all that is mine[00:03:00]

They move in a series of caresses[00:03:05]

That glide up and down my spine[00:03:09]

As they nibble the fruit of my flesh[00:03:22]

I feel no pain[00:03:25]

Only a magic[00:03:29]

That a name would stain[00:03:32]

With the first drop[00:03:37]

Of my blood in their veins[00:03:38]

Their faces are convulsed[00:03:40]

In mortal pains[00:03:42]

The fairest cries "We all[00:03:43]

Have loved you Rael'"[00:03:47]

Each empty snakelike body floats[00:03:53]

Silent sorrow in empty boats[00:03:57]

A sickly sourness fills the room[00:04:03]

The bitter harvest of a dying bloom[00:04:07]

Looking for motion[00:04:13]

I know I will not find[00:04:14]

I stroke the curls now turning pale[00:04:19]

In which I'd lain entwined[00:04:24]

O Lamia your flesh that remains[00:04:30]

I will take as my food[00:04:34]

It is the scent of garlic that lingers[00:04:38]

On my chocolate fingers[00:04:42]

Looking behind me[00:05:29]

The water turns icy blue[00:05:32]

The lights are dimmed[00:05:36]

And once again the stage is set for you[00:05:38]
