Esoteric Surgery
Gojira Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

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

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Gojira's song Esoteric Surgery delve deep into the idea of self-healing through a process of disambiguation and the unlocking of certain codes in the mind. The band seems to believe that all illnesses, even those that afflict us physically, can be healed by the power of the human body to regenerate itself. The song provides a glimpse into a world where the power of the soul is infinite and the only limit to our healing potential is our understanding and ability to tap into it.


The song also hints at the idea that much of the illness we experience may be due to internal factors such as misinformation and ignorance. With an emphasis on the importance of structured thinking and the dissection of the soul, the band it appears believes that our ability to heal ourselves largely depends on a deep understanding of the self and our physical and mental makeup. The song uses vivid imagery to paint a picture of a person suspended in the void, releasing pain and overcoming all obstructions through the power of the mind.


Overall, the lyrics to Esoteric Surgery are a call to action, urging us to explore the power of the human mind and the possibility of self-healing.

ESOTERIC SURGERY

you have the power to heal yourself

The general idea of the song is in the first line, it is about ones ability to heal themselves. This is most likely mentally and/or spiritually. Esoteric Surgery in itself would be a rare thought in anyones mind, kind of like astral projection which is mentioned in previous songs.

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

This is referring to the placebo effect. If you believe you are being treated, it has the power to cure ailments. The “secret code” is unlocking to powers of the placebo effect.

flesh bodies mute and blinded, roaming uncertain, lost
infected misinformed
releasing a black enormous insect out from the chest
archaic form 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

suspended floating in empty spaces
descending swift like a fire running down
obstruction disintegration life force
overcoming all circumstances, release the pain

Describing an ego dissolution experience. The experience of ego death is irrelevant and irrespective of circumstances, and as described in more detail in The Art of Dying, releases the pain of your thought-bound illness.

Esoteric Surgery refers to the Hermetic idea of Mental Transmutation. Transmuting your negative mental state into a positive one, can save you from the abyss life puts us into sometimes.

🎉exactly.

Most of their songs have very esoteric meanings.

@KamikazeNews

this song, played at the right moment, and in the right place, could save lives. It probably already has. Thank you everyone

I never heard of them before and I happened upon this cd and this song stuck out considering what I was going through at the time. Almost like kismet.
