Immolation - Those Left Behind (Germany '91)

Immolation - 10.09.1991 - Live in Oberhausen, Germany

-Those Left Behind

I lifted my soul joyfully
if not my life will end painfully
extol he who rides above the clouds
majestic and glorious
reigning victorious

exalted to his name
far above the earth
but below is where i'll see
unmoved by your praise
seated in splendor

high above the heavens
resounding out his name
far below are my beliefs

your majestic light shines down upon me
I turn my face... and shut my eyes
for your light casts darkness upon my world
a world I've not chosen... to dwell within
for those who judge me by your standards

say I'm unworthy... of your grace

enthroned upon their praise
pethtroned with my disgust
unworthy of your glory
you turn your back on me

you are jesus
you are lord
imperfect god
you are nothing to me
for this you say
I'll burn for all eternity...

jesus christ
you are lord
you are god
but have you won ever sin and death
victory's crown shall be ours
for we are those
those you've left behind

"Dawn of Possession" got to be one of the top 10 pure death metal releases ever. Kicks the shit out of most other bands from US in early 90's imo.

[Gratis250]

This song is ridiculously good. Awesome video.

[nopermitsnoparlay]

No bs just badass fuckin metal

[IVomitOnYourGod]

@adrian5118 Another smart-ass right here.

[Corpseviolation666]

It's funny seeing Bob bang his head instead of humping air and swinging his guitar around lol. Either way he puts on a good show.

[astaroth6969]

great band- 666- 777

[TheRippingCorpse]

Probably my fave Immolation song. After all these years it stills sounds fucking great!

[AncientBarbaricEvil]

[Metalheadsmusiclover]

Jesus Christ, you are Lord

You are God - but have you won

Over sin and death?

Victory's crown will be ours

For we are those

Those you've left

BEHIND.
