ELYSION was founded in 2006 by guitarist Johnny Zero & by singer Maxi Nil who, by welcoming on board talented musicians of different backgrounds, soon shaped up a highly promising team, with music approach consisting of many shades of atmospheric and metal elements mixed pop/rock formulas as well as alternative/electro and Gothic influences. Recording the demo right away, which was immediately elected as “Demo of The Month” in Metal Hammer Magazine, ELYSION received excellent critics in webzines and magazines, complimenting utmost on the exceptionally professional sound witch gladly matched European and American high standards. Giving their first interview to Metalmare Magazine (GR), ELYSION right from their very first months of active presence were hosted in numerous columns and were interviewed for radio stations and TV music shows, all this causing the music soon to spread and help them receive several awards (one of them being Fillipos Nakas pop and rock awards 2006 for best band). In the following time ELYSION, among many concerts, were invited to headline in important rock and metal events and also had the pleasure to support a great number of top artists of the scene, most importantly The Gathering, Christian Death, Diary of Dreams, Star Industry. In July 2008, ELYSION’s frontwoman was honored to be invited to join the stage with Moonspell in “Rock ‘em All Festival” presenting Pain of Salvation, Meshuggah, Lacuna Coil, Iced Earth, Venom and perform as a guest singer by the side of Fernando Ribeiro.
Also in 2008 the band separated their paths with Maxi Nil under good faith and Christianna was the next front woman. Then they entered the studio for the recordings of debut album, which, achieving to be an excellent sample of ELYSION’s potential, soon attracted the attention of numerous record labels, leading in signing up with Massacre Records. In the next months ELYSION completed mixing and mastering of the album, having the great privilege to work with America’s top engineer Ted Jensen (Madonna, Evanescence, Iron Maiden, Slipknot, Nickelback, Korn, Marilyn Manson) and have their music mastered in his very owned Sterling Sound Studios, thereby gaining and important advantage of very high -standards production. The cover of the album is created by Natalie Shau (Lacuna Coil, Poison Black, The Duskfall). The artwork and the photographs of the booklet is a creation of Seth Siro Anton (Moonspell, Paradise Lost, Exodus, Soilwork, Septic Flesh). In current time, ELYSION in terms of promoting debut album “Silent Scr3am” which is to be released in fall 2009, are touring Greece and making the final arrangements for their European and American tour.

Transparent
Elysion Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
One step too far
For you I'm reaching, my falling star
So out of words
So full of wounds
I wander here, among my ruins
Is this what we are?
Come take me back, carry me home
Unbreak my heart, conscience is gone
Come end the rain, for all I know
Among the teardrops I can't reach
Can't see your transparent love
Here I'm sitting
One step too far
For you I'm reaching, my falling star
The song "Transparent" by Elysion is a melancholic ballad about the singer's inability to connect with someone they love. The lyrics describe the singer's feeling of being one step too far away from the person they desire, and their frustration with being unable to bridge that gap. The imagery of a falling star suggests that the singer sees their love as something beautiful and rare, but also fleeting and impossible to grasp.
The second half of the first verse shifts into a more introspective tone, as the singer describes themselves as "out of words" and "full of wounds." They feel lost and alone among their "ruins," implying that they may have experienced some personal hardship or emotional trauma. The chorus further highlights the singer's sense of longing and despair, as they plead for their heart to be unbroken and for the rain to stop falling. The final line, "Can't see your transparent love," adds a layer of complexity to the song's central theme. Here, the word "transparent" is not used as a positive quality, but rather as a negative one. The singer feels like they cannot see or understand the love that the other person is offering them.
Overall, "Transparent" is a powerful and emotional song that touches on themes of love, loss, and desperation. The lyrics are open to interpretation, but the tone and imagery paint a vivid picture of the singer's inner turmoil.

Here I'm sitting
I find myself sitting here, still and hesitant
One step too far
I feel like I have gone too far and I can't take it back
For you I'm reaching, my falling star
I'm reaching out to you, the one I love, and you feel like a shooting star that's falling away from me
So out of words
I'm speechless and can't find the right way to express my feelings
So full of wounds
My heart is broken and full of emotional wounds
I wander here, among my ruins
I'm wandering aimlessly in this destroyed place, which is a reflection of my own emotional state
Is this what we fear, what we have become?
I'm questioning whether this is what we are afraid of and if this is really who we have become
Is this what we are?
Is this really who we are?
Come take me back, carry me home
I'm asking you to take me back to where we belong, to carry me home
Unbreak my heart, conscience is gone
My heart is broken and I'm asking you to mend it, even though I feel like I've lost my conscience
Come end the rain, for all I know
I'm hoping that you will come and end this sadness, for all I know
Among the teardrops I can't reach
I'm surrounded by tears that I can't wipe away
Can't see your transparent love
I can't feel or see your love clearly, it's like it's see-through and hard to grasp
