Like most other Skinny Puppy songs, I haven't the foggiest idea what the artist intended. I have fond memories of this song.
Lying on the floor of my first solo apartment, age eighteen. Lying in an altered state of mind. I just relaxed into the corpse pose and concentrated on the words as they played.
My mind saw a gathering of people. They seemed very tall, but it was because I was lying down, looking up at them. I couldn't make out their faces; there wasn't much light at all. I felt like I knew everyone there. They felt very familiar.
I just looked up at them. And they were singing the angel voice you hear in the song. So there was that beautiful angel voice & people gathered all around & looking down at me. As the voice spoke the words, there was a faint glowing light that began to appear behind all the people. Their shadows cast upon me.
As the words continued to be spoken, I started to feel like I was being moved. The people started to part at my feet. I felt like I was floating in the air. Floating feet first towards the light behind the people.
I now notice that the people are supporting my weight in their arms. They are moving me into a vessel.
My feet become very warm. It suddenly occurs to me that I am moving towards an oven of some sort.
I believe I was being cremated. I drew a sketch of it.
