An Elixir for Existence is the second album from Norwegian symphonic metal band Sirenia, released in 2004. The album is continued in the same vein as the previous, At Sixes and Sevens without being a copy, but includes 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 of these songs are subject to further conjecture.
