The calling


I here
I hear the calling
Carry across the landscape

I hear it echo from every city to every village upon the earth
From every rooftop to every mountain
Calling the faithful to find themselves
A fire burning like precious water, the fire that drives me on and on

Through hell I shall reach heaven
I shall not resist the changes before me
View the madness with perspective
(the clock is ticking but time means nothing)
So I ascend to the blinding light
Then plummet to the thickest darkness
(and I always tell myself how splendid is the adventure!)
I can no longer see good or evil
But worship polarity

So do not trust the beggars that expose their poverty of spirit
Bleating "I will follow"

I heed
I heed the calling
Follow yourselves as leaders

Arise, arise, stand upright and take pride in who and what you are
Great changes are coming and you will be asked to identify yourself
So run like a lion with inexhaustible strength from world to world
Let your work shine unto the ends of time yeah unto the ends of time.

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

Killing Joke is a British rock band formed in Notting Hill, London, in 1979. Considered pioneers of post-punk and progenitors of the goth rock movement, they have profoundly influenced the alternative music scene with their dark, experimental, and often aggressive sound. The only founding member still active is Jaz Coleman, the charismatic singer and frontman known for his theatrical and visionary performances. Other key members include Youth (bass) and Paul Ferguson (drums). Killing Joke has released a vast discography, with albums like "Killing Joke" (1980), "What's This For?" (1981), and "Revelations" (1986) becoming genre classics. Representative tracks include "Eighties", "Love Like Blood", "The Wait", "Requiem", and "Pandemonium". The band has gone through periods of hiatus and reunions, maintaining a loyal following and influencing generations of musicians.
