An Elixir for Existence is the second album from the gothic metal band Sirenia, released in 2004. The album has a distinctly different feel from the previous At Sixes and Sevens, a major aspect of this is due to a new female vocalist, Henriette Bordvik.
An overwhelming number of the songs are concerned with mental conditions, be it depression (Voices Within), drug use (Euphoria), or thoughts of suicide (The Fall Within); of course the meanings of all the songs are subject to further conjecture.
