Sepultura

Leave me with my grief
Alive conscious showing
Abandoned by God
Warmth of death comforts my skin
I did not ask to live
I won't accept the end

Leave me with my grief
Leave me with my grief
My grief
My grief
My grief
My grief

Every breath is shaking
Scars left and wide open
Abandoned by God
Warmth of death comforts my skin

Leave me with my grief
Leave me with my grief
My grief
My grief
My grief
My grief

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.
