Adorations Lyrics
Courage and cowards move heroes to ecstasy,
Welcomes of war and wounds, vigil and victory.
Structures of atoms dance, sugar towards the taster,
Prey to the predator, love as we’re falling down.
Through light and laughter flow, to dirge and death we go.
Mindless processions move, lanterns of burning towns.
Welcome to fray and feast, bliss in all sorrows found.
Rythm and random moves and waves of revelations.
Patterns I’m finding
As pain and joy and sorrow mingle.
Patterns we’re finding
Our faces raised in adorations.
Deserts are paradise, awake to genocides.
Delight and suffering, these roles that we have found.
Nourished by food we eat, hungered by waste excrete.
From apes or sons of god, let every act be sacred.
Patterns I’m finding
As pain and joy and sorrow mingle.
Patterns we’re finding
Our faces raised in adorations.
Welcomes of war and wounds, vigil and victory.
Structures of atoms dance, sugar towards the taster,
Prey to the predator, love as we’re falling down.
Mindless processions move, lanterns of burning towns.
Welcome to fray and feast, bliss in all sorrows found.
Rythm and random moves and waves of revelations.
As pain and joy and sorrow mingle.
Patterns we’re finding
Our faces raised in adorations.
Delight and suffering, these roles that we have found.
Nourished by food we eat, hungered by waste excrete.
From apes or sons of god, let every act be sacred.
As pain and joy and sorrow mingle.
Patterns we’re finding
Our faces raised in adorations.

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.
This is a great band.....this song is my fav by them......easily in my top 20 and i am old.....i still listen to this at least 1x a week........i love its spacey lyrics and great delivery......musically it is where i live
Love this!
0=2 Opposites are the same thing, and together, a greater understanding, which of course, has to be nothing. (In contrast to 1=2, which means that defining anything implies that it has an opposite.)
BTW, contrary to what Novocastrian says, Jaz is a gnostic Rosecrucian, and is also a christian minister. Adorations are a religious ritual, so how can this be anti-religion?
