Cemetery Gates

  • Pantera

Reverend, reverendIs this some conspiracy?Crucified for no sinsAn image beneath meLost within our plans for lifeIt all seems so unrealI'm a man cut in half in this worldLeft in my misery

Reverend, he turned to meWithout a tear in his eyesNothing new for him to seeI didn't ask him why

I will rememberThe love our souls had sworn to makeNow I watch the falling rainAll my mind can see now is your

Well, I guess you took my youthAnd gave it all awayLike the birth of a new-found joyThis love would end in rage

And when she died I couldn't cryThe pride was in my soulYou left me incompleteAll alone as the memories now unfold

Believe the wordI will unlock my doorAnd pass the cemetery gates

Sometimes when I'm alone I wonder aloudIf you're watching over meSome place far abound

I must reverse my lifeI can't live in the pastThen set my soul freeBelong to me at last

Through all those complex yearsI thought I was aloneI didn't care to look aroundAnd make this world my own

And when she died I should've criedAnd spared myself some painYou left me incompleteAll alone as the memories still remain

The way we wereThe chance to save my soulAnd my concern is now in vainBelieve the wordI will unlock my doorAnd pass the cemetery gates

The way we wereThe chance to save my soulAnd my concern is now in vainBelieve the wordI will unlock my doorAnd pass the cemetery gatesGatesGates
