Edaenia 2312
Gorod Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Brought about by your father
Your hope's here, you will learn
How to rebuilt a future
Touch the ravaged land
Bequeathed by your ancestors
Your saviour's here, you will learn
Join Edaenia
Hear this deathly silence
Brought about by your father
Your hope's here, you will learn
How not to fear loneliness
Smell the charred bodies
Bequeathed by your ancestors
Your saviour's here, you will learn
How not to wage wars
Join Edaenia, Man's hope
As was written in the Prophecy
Taste irradiated flesh, caused by your actions
Here is your future, you'll probably learn
Not to give death anymore
Here is your future, you'll probably learn
Not to give death anymore
The lyrics of Gorod's song Edaenia 2312 depict the aftermath of a catastrophic event that was caused by the actions of the singer's father. The devastation is seen, heard, smelled, and tasted by the singer as they try to rebuild their world. The song is a journey of self-discovery and redemption, as the singer learns how to live without fear, how to restore life to their surroundings, and how to move away from a violent past.
The lyrics are open-ended and can be interpreted in many ways. The song can be seen as a warning against the destruction of the environment or the dangers of warfare, or it can be seen as a meditation on the human capacity for self-destruction and eventual renewal. The references to the prophecy suggest that there is a larger cosmic cycle at play, and that the singer has a key role to play in restoring balance to the world.

Those jazzy riffs are perfection

Why are people only concerned with the newest albums released by bands or comparing them to each other. This is a cornerstone of gorods development and still as amazing and relevant today as it ever was or will be. Deserves more than 6,000 when manufactured shit gets 100's of millions. Guess that's the power of money over artistic creativity and love of the craft. Them's the breaks kids

money leads to advertising.... Creativity (eventually) leads to money which then leads to manufacturing :( it's a viscous paradigm
Autoctonal
just a piece of masterpiece
