| Killing Joke – Adorations Lyrics | 3 years ago |

This song is about religion, Jaz made a composition of this piece for orchestra called A Gnostic Mass. Its about how gnosticism has infected the spirit of devotion to the divine and polluted it. As pain and joy and sorrow linger, ... our faces raised in adoration. Always looking outward, not inward, looking for a way out of the body, not deepening human experience and certainly not spirituality. Not on this plane of existence which is a prison according to some gnostics. Always looking up at adoration to a God that does not exist inside this realm. An alien almighty which can not be translated. The only way out is to find a way to "transcend" the body into that alien realm of existence. Many have tried, I mean look at Jaz and tell me he hasn't tried. |
