Opium, desire or will?
Inspiration bound from an elegant seed
Subversion, through smoke I foresee
Erotic motions of lesser gods in ectasy
Opium, bring me forth another dream
Spawn worlds of flesh and red,
Little jewels of atrocity
Opium, I sleep in debauchery
And burn with you
When you burn in Me
Opium, we fantasize
As we fuse with your root
You are a strange flower,
We are your strangest fruit
Opium, it burns in me and you
Opium, it burns for me and for you
Inspiration bound from an elegant seed
Subversion, through smoke I foresee
Erotic motions of lesser gods in ectasy
Opium, bring me forth another dream
Spawn worlds of flesh and red,
Little jewels of atrocity
Opium, I sleep in debauchery
And burn with you
When you burn in Me
Opium, we fantasize
As we fuse with your root
You are a strange flower,
We are your strangest fruit
Opium, it burns in me and you
Opium, it burns for me and for you

Opium is nice song, from the Iriligious album, although I prefer the Wolfshade album much more.
"Therefore I take opium. It is a medicine.
I'm a convalescent of the moment.
I live in the lower floors of the thoughts,
and to see life pass by grows me tedious"
this song really demonstrate the force of opiario...
This is really close to something in Fernando Pessoa poems called hurt of thinking(don't know the real word in english) is dor de pensar(how much he thinks the worst he feels)
and opium is the only way to runaway from the bad thoughts... the verse bring me for another dream demonstrates that...
Hi All ^^ this song is based on a poem Opiário - Fernando Pessoa.
Its all about the life of alváro de campos that is a Naval Engineering , and his travels to orient where he gets opium and he totaly bored with his life, and only way to get out of there and forget the bad things and sad feelings that was on in his mind is take opium .
I'm Portuguese ^^ :P
