Mortification

Mortification is an Australian Christian extreme metal band which was formed in 1987 as a heavy metal group, Lightforce, by mainstay Steve Rowe on bass guitar and vocals. By 1990, in the Melbourne suburb of Moorabbin, they were renamed as Mortification with the line-up of Rowe, Michael Carlisle on guitar and Jayson Sherlock on drums. Mortification has released over twenty albums and several videos on major record labels such as Nuclear Blast. As one of the earliest internationally successful Christian death metal bands from Australia, they served as an inspiration for later similar groups. more »

"What is truth?", I ask myself
All religions boast absolute truth
But temptation is all that I find
As flesh craves overshadows the emptiness
On through the valley of blindness I roam
As voices whisper in the wind around
Calling me into the darkness beyond
Like the sound of sirens in the distance

From the valley of the shadows
Into the darkness beyond
Feel the calling of pleasures
Overshadow man's emptiness

My guiltiness bleeds internally
Inside tunnels of blocked emotions
The silent screams within my inner being
Bursting forth in desperation

From the valley of the shadows
Into the darkness beyond
Feel the calling of pleasures
Overshadow man's emptiness

Disillusionment fades
As I change my course
Rejection of pride through repentance
The answer revealed, messianic deity
The judge paid the sinners debt

From the valley of the shadows
Into the light of Christ
I follow the calling if righteousness
As shadows cringe from the brightness

Peace engulfs me
As I surrender my life
The entwining of guilt is lifted away
Shadows are scattered by
The Lamb of God
Delivered from the
Abuse of substances
