Paradise Lost - Mortals Watch The Day ( Live 1993 )

Live stuttgart 1993

Plead forgiveness father
All my troubles fade from view
Pale the four walls surround
Have I madness in my eyes?

While mortals watch the day
Our fear will pave the way
Hidden until the end

See a room of crimson
Nothing I have seen before
Coldness wrapped around me
Struggle not for hell is here

While tyrants close the doors
Each one will know the score
Sorrow takes it all

Saved the sick of life's bliss
Charity of utmost guilt
Fear the blinded temper
It has lied it's way to you...

While mortals watch the day
And light has turned to grey
What lies up ahead

Light shines into your eyes
That I'm blinded by, your eyes
Mortal throughout the days
Until we're saved (...we're saved)

Turning to black
I can't see through this
No option from turning away
We will see another day
(Turning away... will we see another day)

Shades of God and Gothic are their best albums.

First 4 albums are their best times. This was the opening in germany MTV gave this live show, in October 1993. PL rules.

Oh the memories of the glory days! Spinechillin`!!

[uglyguido]

can't believe the difference in just four short years from that time.

If you were a musician you wouldn't say that bunch of nonsense. No other band in the world has produced the quality of music PL has produced. It's a band with around 60 hits, something only accomplished by a few others (Iron Maiden, Pink Floyd, Depeche Mode). Only a musician knows how hard is to write outstanding songs for a long period of time. PL don't seem to quit doing that yet.

@MrJordang73 I got three words for you: My Dying Bride. I'm not taking anything away from PL - they're a great band, one of the best. But to say that NO band could get even close is incorrect. MDB not only gets close, their body of work is more consistent, and overall with more depth.

[MrJordang73]

This is the highest moment in the doom genre. With Icon this kind of music reached the top, the highest place possible. Simply unreachable , no other band could get even close

[gael515]

Their best times for sure...

[insidethefall78]
