Cemetery Gates

"Cemetery Gates" is a power ballad by American heavy metal band Pantera. The song is the fifth track from the 1990 album Cowboys from Hell, the band's fifth record and second with lead singer Phil Anselmo. The song, the longest in Pantera's discography, showcases Anselmo's vocal ability and range, concluding with screaming high notes answered by Dimebag Darrell on guitar in a trade-off. more »

Stars are aligned, new moon, so bright
So quiet tonight, the silence echoes through the air
We come together, one mission, one goal
To bring you in, we need your soul

We don't care who you are
We don't care what you do
We don't care what you think
We don't care about you
All we need is a glimpse at your eyes
Starring back through the glass

We don't care who you are
We don't care what you do
We don't care what you think
We don't care about you
All we need is a glimpse at your eyes
All we need is your mind

The knowledge is rare, the secret is hidden
Encrypted by language and strictly forbidden
Only the righteous of blood can obtain it
But only through years of devotional living

We don't care
We don't care
We don't care

The world has become a place of apathy
Spiritual minds will meet decay
The lesser souls just roam away, astray
With no connection to the astral gateway

The world has become a place of apathy
Spiritual minds will meet decay
The lesser souls just roam away, astray
With no connection to the astral gateway

We take what we want
No mercy is taken
We take what we need
On your soul we feed

We take what we want
No mercy is taken
We take what we need
On your soul we feed

The secret isn't gone
There are thousands hard to find
They have the knowledge
They will survive
If the rules are followed
And their mirrors hallowed

We don't care who you are
We don't care what you do
We don't care what you think
We don't care about you
All we need is a glimpse at your eyes
All we need is your mind

The knowledge is rare, the secret is hidden
Encrypted by language and strictly forbidden
Only the righteous of blood can obtain it
But only through years of devotional living

The knowledge is rare, the secret is hidden
Encrypted by language and strictly forbidden
Only the righteous of blood can obtain it
But only through years of devotional living

We take what we want
No mercy is taken
On your soul we feed
No mercy is taken
We take what we need
On your soul we feed

Stars are aligned, new moon, so bright
So quiet tonight, the silence echoes through the air
We come together, one mission, one goal
