| Peter Gabriel – Blood Of Eden Lyrics | 13 years ago |
| This is a song about trying to patch up emotional and existential holes with consumerism. The point is that the heated and the holy are just as vulnerable to emotional turmoil, as well as to doing evil, as were Adam and Eve. In the end, wealth proves unsatisfying, and he only trully finds redemption in the embrace of his love. The blood of Eden, which flows through him and takes over in the end, is that powerful longing for connection between "the woman and the man". | |
