| Ulver – Gnosis Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
I actually got it in an entirely different way. I heard: Not knowing how to express myself without using pagan words, I prefer to rebel silence. And I thought that pagan words refer to the Black Metal Trilogie Ulver did first, and this is quite a regretful song. From a recent interview Garm stated that once, he kind of hated his past for making that black metal trilogy, but now he's gotten over it. And somewhere else I read that the period around Perdition City was the time he felt most discomforted by his past. So, to me actually the whole song is about regrets of the past and progress over that. The song name probably refers to a gnosis they had while doing black metal. |
