Dionysos Nyktelios In my opinion, the best from Life On Venus to date: Without diverging too much from their path, defined by their two previous works, 'Homewards' is an exquisite album that stands out from the atmospheric shoegaze formula to some craft of art. All the elements that can be found in 'Encounters' and 'Odes to the Void' are still here, but is easy to find a brilliant push up overall. High quality shoegaze that I can't but recommend to any listener.

This music takes you on a journey to places. Favorite track: Домой.

As we traverse the night Stars alight our way Vanishing out of sight Further and further away Take my hand Let us get lost somewhere we’ve never been Take a step Into the place unseen When it gets dark outside I know You will be there Night will embrace the sky and everything everything everything everything else Darkness engulfs the lights but no, I won’t be scared I’m not afraid to die or anything anything anything anything else I’m lying on the ground In a blooming field Somewhere beneath the clouds Wondering what night may conceal When it gets dark outside I know You will be there Night will embrace the sky and everything everything everything everything else Darkness engulfs the lights but no, I won’t be scared I’m not afraid to die or anything anything anything anything else

Light is leaking In my room Hear you speaking Through the gloom What is distance After all? Coexistence On the phone Told myself to live Like there’s no tomorrow Nothing’s left to give Just wipe away the sorrow Told myself to live Like there’s no tomorrow Nothing’s left to give Just wipe away the sorrow We’ll get over We shall see See each other At the sea Told myself to live Like there’s no tomorrow Nothing’s left to give Just wipe away the sorrow Told myself to live Like there’s no tomorrow Nothing’s left to give Just wipe away the sorrow

There are some things I can't forget I feel them all There must be nothing I regret But I'm alone In a never ending night That I can call my own A never ending night That makes me feel like home Close your eyes and speak to the moon Close your eyes and speak to the moon Close your eyes and speak to the moon Close your eyes and speak to the moon The time runs out, I run ahead So far from home The past keeps running through my head But I feel whole In a never ending night That I can call my own A never ending night That makes me feel like home Close your eyes and speak to the moon Close your eyes and speak to the moon Close your eyes and speak to the moon Close your eyes and speak to the moon

Summer 03:25
Silent is the night It follows you home As the streets get quiet As the daylight dies We start the engines And traverse the skies Well, it will take forever But I feel the hand in mine And the time moves fast together Our summer Is somewhere far behind Somewhere we can’t find it Somewhere far behind It’s shining Somewhere far behind Somewhere we can’t find it Somewhere far behind High above the ground We follow the stars As the wind blows low High above the clouds Stalking the past As the times goes round Well, it will take forever But I feel your hand in mine And the time moves fast together Well, it will take forever But I feel your hand in mine And the time moves fast together Our summer Is somewhere far behind Somewhere we can’t find it Somewhere far behind It’s shining Somewhere far behind Somewhere we can’t find it Somewhere far behind

Deep Inside 03:01
The clock stops ticking again I’m holding her hand She’s holding mine loose Time that we’ve spent in vain Is stuck in my head Until the end Deep inside, where it’s dark There’s a place I’d like to show you It’s a place where my memories remain Call my name through the fog, Do not let it all desert you Take my hand as we fade into the rain There’s a hole in the sky Casting its shade Over the sun Darkness covers my eyes If this is the end Then it has begun Deep inside, where it’s dark There’s a place I’d like to show you It’s a place where my memories remain Call my name through the fog, Do not let it all desert you Take my hand as we fade into the rain

Stranger days, stranger times Put your hands upon your eyes Draw the ways, draw the lines Nothing is forever Stranger days, stranger times Don't believe in any lies Draw the ways, draw the lines Nothing is forever It feels like we got lost among the tides A place somewhere between the space and time Anyway, anyhow, anything that matters Will be like it was one day Like the stars, like the dust, we will burst and scatter Further and further away Our future comes too soon I'm so afraid to lose you Our spirit sings in tune So comforting and soothing Stranger days, stranger times Put your hands upon your eyes Draw the ways, draw the lines Nothing is forever Stranger days, stranger times Don't believe in any lies Draw the ways, draw the lines Nothing is forever

In a moment We’ll be gone Burning brighter Than the sun We’re going nowhere We’re running out of time And we a totally aware we’re driving blind We’ll end up somewhere We have so much to find Somewhere in between us Things I don’t regret Blinding lights and shivers I can not forget Somewhere in between us Things I don’t regret Call me calmly By my name We will never Be the same We’re going nowhere We’re running out of time And we a totally aware we’re driving blind We’ll end up somewhere We have so much to find Somewhere in between us Things I don’t regret Blinding lights and shivers I can not forget Somewhere in between us Things I don’t regret

There’s fire Inside our minds Go higher Leave all behind We’ll be forever young And I know I won’t care what is right and what is wrong Cold air fills my lungs Promise me you will be there by my side until we’re gone Keep searching To see what’s ahead We’re verging On dreams that we had Remember It’s all in your head Keep shining With no regrets We’ll be forever young And I know I won’t care what is right and what is wrong Cold air fills my lungs Promise me you will be there by my side until we’re gone We’ll be forever young And I know I don’t care what is right and what is wrong

Домой 03:25
Время замирает На пороге у весны С тёплым ветром улетают мысли прочь Вечер догорает В ярком пламени зари Посмотри как в небе расцветает ночь И я безрассудно Бьюсь о скалы Берегов твоих объятий Я растворюсь в прибрежной пене твоих слез И мое судно Снегом талым Растечется океаном Посреди бескрайней глади твоих грёз Зажигая звёзды Ночь плывет за горизонт Мы рисуем на рассвете тишиной Утра стылый воздух Растворяет зыбкий сон Луч рассвета позовёт меня домой И я безрассудно Бьюсь о скалы Берегов твоих объятий Я растворюсь в прибрежной пене твоих слез И мое судно Снегом талым Растечется океаном Посреди бескрайней глади твоих грёз
