1) A band started in 1996, in one of Warsaw highschools, as Melankolia. In the beginning they experienced usual line-up changes and some "accidental" gigs. They also recorded a few tracks, which were included in a soundtrack to a play by "Goodbye Blue Monday" theatre. One of their songs was also put on "Metal Against Racial Prejudice" compilation. Their style evolved - they gave up keyboards and their sound became much heavier; also, they changed their name to Naamah. In June 1999 they recorded their 20-minute material entitled "Magia". It was well received by fans and music press; the band gave many concerts and interviews for local media. Soon the band started work on their new material - they wanted to create richer, more technically better compositions, they also returned to the keyboards. In the middle of 2000 the band was joined by Marta Frakstein (vocals, violin), then they entered the studio to record their first full-length. "Naamah" was very warmly received by the fans and got good reviews in music media, it was also well spoken of by members of renowned Polish bands such as Batalion D'Amour or Moonlight. After many gigs and some line-up changes the band recorded two pieces for a D.K. Imielin Rock Scene compilation. The CD included new versions of "Kolejny Raz" and "Magia", enriched by violin parts and with new solos. The band entered the studio again and recorded new material "Ultima". Recording session finished in July 2002. The album shows how the band developed, searching for their unique musical identity. The compositions are very sophisticated and thought-over, maintained in progressive climates with gothic and art-rock elements. Soon after the band gave a very successful performance at Voyage 51 (Progressive Music Festival). In the end of 2002 they signed a record deal with Metal Mind Productions and in January 2003 their first official release was out. In June they hit the road with The Gathering and started to work on their next album. the work on "Resensement" finished in March 2004

Stranger
Naamah Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I will sail into your dreams
But let me breathe
I'm so weak
I remember, I forget
I couldn't reach
Lookin' into my eyes when dark and light
Surrounded me
Yes, he is called somehow
But I'm sure, he's affraid of me tonight
Becoming wild
I need to find a place
Where You'll look like me
The words unsaid
Time will come - rarely selected part of You
Fading dissapears
Ready to cry, disguised in spite of time
Frightened by mirrors
There wasn't given any choice
To convert devices into distant world
You should be scared out inside
The lyrics to Naamah's song "Stranger" delve into the themes of fear, confusion, and struggle. The singer describes their struggle to breathe and remember in the midst of their fear of a stranger who seems to be looking at them with both dark and light intentions. The singer is unsure who this stranger is but is frightened by the idea that he may be afraid of them. The lyrics suggest a deeper inner turmoil, where the singer feels they have little control over the events and emotions surrounding them. They seem to be searching for a place where they feel they belong, where words remain unsaid, and where time can disappear. The final line, "You should be scared out inside," further highlights the underlying sense of terror and vulnerability that lies beneath the surface.
Overall, the lyrics of "Stranger" provide an evocative glimpse into the emotional landscape of someone who is struggling to come to terms with their fears and the unknown. The singer's feelings of weakness, confusion, and isolation are communicated through the use of vivid and poetic language that invites the listener to share in their experience.

Scream at night
I express my emotions loudly, even when the world is sleeping
I will sail into your dreams
My thoughts will haunt your subconscious mind
But let me breathe
Give me some space, let me take a breath
I'm so weak
I feel vulnerable and powerless
I remember, I forget
I have moments of clarity and moments of confusion
I couldn't reach
I failed to attain my goals or make connections with others
He's a stranger for all of us
We don't know him or his intentions
Lookin' into my eyes when dark and light surrounded me
He stares into my soul during my darkest moments
Yes, he is called somehow
He has a name or identity that we are uncertain of
But I'm sure, he's affraid of me tonight
Despite his presence, I have the upper hand and he fears me
Becoming wild
I am ready to unleash my inner animalistic instincts
I need to find a place
I am searching for somewhere that feels like home
Where You'll look like me
I long to find someone who understands and relates to me
The words unsaid
There are things I cannot express or articulate
Time will come - rarely selected part of You
When the right moment arrives, a hidden part of yourself may be revealed
Fading dissapears
As we move further away from the past, our memories and pain diminish
Ready to cry, disguised in spite of time
I am on the verge of tears but hide my emotions to seem strong
Frightened by mirrors
I am scared of my own reflection and the truth it may reveal
There wasn't given any choice
I feel trapped with no alternative options
To convert devices into distant world
Instead of connecting us, technology can create isolation and distance
You should be scared out inside
You have inner fears and demons that you must confront
