Esoteric Surgery Lyrics
You have the power to heal yourself
All illness can be healed, the cell regenerates
Disambiguated situation
There is a secret code, the structure of the mind
You have the power to heal yourself
Flesh bodies mute and blinded roaming uncertain, lost
Infected misinformed
Releasing a black enormous insect out from the chest
Archaic from disease
Esoteric surgery, dissection of the soul
Unsuspected precise power
On the wounded astral body
Projected beam of light
All illness can be healed, the cell regenerates
Disambiguated situation
There is a secret code, the structure of the mind
You have the power to heal yourself
Suspended, floating in empty spaces
Descending swift like a fire running down
Obstruction, disintegration, life force
Overcoming all circumstances, release the pain
Disambiguated situation
There is a secret code, the structure of the mind
You have the power to heal yourself
Infected misinformed
Releasing a black enormous insect out from the chest
Archaic from disease
Unsuspected precise power
On the wounded astral body
Projected beam of light
Disambiguated situation
There is a secret code, the structure of the mind
You have the power to heal yourself
Descending swift like a fire running down
Obstruction, disintegration, life force
Overcoming all circumstances, release the pain

I think this track just cured my illness
This is definitely one of my favorite songs. I will break it down line-by-line.
You have the power to heal yourself (the basic definition of "esoteric surgery")
All illness can be healed (pretty straight forward) The cell regenerates (cells can regenerate to heal tissues) Disambiguated situation (break down what he was saying) There is a secret code (he's talking about DNA) In the structure of the mind (your mind can give commands to each cell) You have the power to heal yourself (your body uses those things to heal itself)
Flesh bodies mute and blinded (people are unaware) Roaming uncertain, lost (they're walking aimlessly) Infected misinformed (they've been spreading incorrect information) Releasing a black enormous insect (by spreading the information, they're giving birth to a parasite) Out from the chest (I think they're saying that it's coming from the heart) Archaic from disease (it has become very old from the spreading disease)
Esoteric surgery a dissection of the soul (you can only heal yourself if you have the will power) Unsuspected precise power (people are often not expecting that some ailments can be healed so thoroughly) On the wounded astral body (an astral body is a medium between the physical body and the soul) (from those who are wounded in both their souls and bodies) Projected beam of light (hope is projected from those who have been wounded in their souls as well as their bodies)
All illness can be healed (pretty straight forward) The cell regenerates (cells can regenerate to heal tissues) Disambiguated situation (break down the what he was saying) There is a secret code (he's talking about DNA) In the structure of the mind (your mind can give commands to each cell) You have the power to heal yourself (your body uses those things to heal itself)
Suspended floating in empty spaces (purgatory) Descending swift like a fire running down (the thing blocking you from passing on) Obstruction disintegration life force (there are road blocks in your way of passing onto the next world) Overcoming all circumstances (overcome the road blocks) Release the pain (pass on to your next life)
This song is very difficult to interpret, but I think it's about how the body can heal itself when necessary. They go on to say that some people lose all hope for themselves and end up leading themselves to their own demise. At the end of the song, they talk about passing on to the next life.
I appreciate your thorough interpretation of this excellent track. It, too, is one of my favorites on The Way of All Flesh.

In many ways, Gojira has expanded my conception of what "heavy" and "metal" could be. Their lyrics in particular have made a deep impression on me, although some of it can be...esoteric.

I know I'll get a chance to see them live one of these days, but I'm afraid that I'll have such a "religious" experience that I'll embrace death...

I agree with everything you just said xD There lyrics seem really origonal and poetic almost. And yeah they are hard to interpret, but i like that about them. Very metaphoric.

Yeah! That 'Suspended floating in empty spaces...' section is my favorite part aswell. The way the clean vocals in the background and the growls blend so well, and the rhythem of the lyrics is really powerfull too.

Whenever i listen gojira i get yogic vibe. many of the songs talk about yogic and spiritual things or something about enlightenment. This song if seen in this way is talking about shambhavi mudra which is yogic way to cure from inside.
