[Verse]
What did I do to deserve this agony?
Filled with desire and ambition but no more
Free from the anger but conditioned and alone
Drowned in the tears of the one thing that I once loved
The onset of slaughter still rages on
The future is so black the thrill is gone
The onset of slaughter still rages on
The future is so black the thrill is gone

[Chorus]
Lack of trust
Buried deep
Sadistic values
Haunting me
Haunting me
Sadistic values
Haunting me

[Bridge]
Robotic eyes are watching
It's the time of a new world order
Robotic eyes are watching
It's the time of a new world order

[Chorus]
Reverse the roles
Kill the need
Increasing pressure
Follows me
Follows me
Sadistic values
Haunting me

Sepultura is a Brazilian heavy metal band from Belo Horizonte. Formed in 1984 by brothers Max and Igor Cavalera, the band was a major force in the death metal, thrash metal and groove metal genres during the late 1980s and early 1990s, with their later experiments drawing influence from alternative metal, world music, nu metal, hardcore punk and industrial metal.

The first Sepultura show was on December 4th, 1984. The band played two songs that never were re-recorded or released.

The band name comes from a Portuguese translation of Motörhead’s song “Dancing on Your Grave” which is “Dançando na sua Sepultura”. Sepultura means “grave” (sepulchre) in Portuguese (and in some other Latin-based languages). Originally, they wanted to call the band Tropa de Choque (Shock Troops), but found that the name had been used before.
