[Intro: spoken narration] Imagine a place beyond time and life – where memories take form and myths are allowed to speak. Here, in the twilight between longing and knowing, the voice of the Grail meets the full heart of the Vase – two vessels, as different as night and dawn, yet both guarding in their depths all that a human ever desires or regrets. [Oneiroi-Verse: ghostly choir, ethereal, unearthly] The land of the Oneiroi, a realm between dream and being. The gate of horn opens the paths of truth, the ivory gate leads to dreams of silence and deception. [Gral-Verse: male operatic voice] I am shaped for eternity, yet no one ever drinks from me. Banished into silence, into song, I am the treasure, never free. [Vase-Verse: fragile luminous female voice] My body born of cracks, of dust and time, shattered a hundred times – yet every shard of joy and grief bears witness to my choice. [Pre-Chorus: Grail & Vase duet] [male voice:] Do you seek to be perfect? [female voice:] Just honest. And you? [male voice:] I wait for the one who no longer searches – but finds. [Chorus: Grail & Vase duet, layered voices with soaring violin] In the Land of the Oneiroi In the Land of the Oneiroi we merge within a gaze – lived time and yearning, a fleeting, burning moment. You are life, and I am dream, both are true – only together whole, and wonderful. The insight opens the Land of the Oneiroi, where endurance and fracture touch each other, neither forever bound, nor broken – there the hidden treasure lies. [Bridge: spoken duet, alternating male/female] And when mankind steps into that land, filled with rapture, filled with wonder, they reach for the promise of immortality – the Holy Grail, yet it is empty. Beside it stands the Vase, mended from the shards of life, and deep within it rests the draught that bears and transforms all. [Gral-Verse: male operatic voice] I am shaped for eternity, that bears and transforms all. [Outro: spoken duet, fading into silence] [female (Vase):] They have fled, through the ivory gate … back into silence. [male (Grail):] And here we remain – alone. For now. [SFX: loud sigh, echoing] (here we remain)
