Gorgeous
Horresco Referens Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Fascination
Mental
Absolution
Escaping bodies, searchin' for a way
Dizziness i feel, on your corpse i lay
Follow me in my serene quest of sin
So gorgeous that i lose myself
Blast off your soul, sensuality
Innocence of inner quest
Sexuality
Forget carnal pleasures
Preparing your rapture
Don't mistake sexuality
For search of spirituality
So gorgeous that you lost yourself
Moans and cries for yearning of sex
It's not sex, this purity
Was my quest
The song Gorgeous by Horresco Referens is a deep reflection on the duality of human nature, with a particular focus on spirituality and sexuality. The lyrics use vivid imagery to describe a search for meaning and absolution through carnal experiences, as well as a warning against confusing physical pleasure with spiritual fulfillment. The opening lines introduce the idea of escaping the confines of the body in order to seek enlightenment, but the singer quickly finds themselves consumed by the physical sensations of sex with another person. The word "gorgeous" is used to describe both the beauty of the experience as well as the danger of becoming lost in it.
The lyrics express a desire for both carnal pleasure and spiritual satisfaction, but ultimately suggests that the two cannot be equated. The line "Don't mistake sexuality for search of spirituality" is particularly poignant, emphasizing the importance of recognizing the difference between the two. The song seems to suggest that while sex can be a beautiful and transformative experience, it cannot replace the need for true spiritual growth and enlightenment.
In summary, Gorgeous is a haunting meditation on the interplay between our base desires and our need for purpose and meaning. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a person who is torn between their lust for physical pleasure and their longing for something more transcendent.
