Living Sacrifice - 02 - Second Death (Demo)

Here is the second track of the Not Yielding to Ungodly demo by the U.S. based Christian metal band Second Death. The song is called Haven of Blasphemy. Living Sacrifice formed in 1089 in Little Rock, Arkansas. The band would release this demo the following year. This would get them signed to a record label called R.E.X Music in 1991, and they would enter the studio and release their self titled debut album. It would release that same year. The band would keep up a steady stream of releases between then and 2003, when they broke up. They got back together in 2008 and started releasing albums again. They are still active as of writing this. The band started off as a thrash metal band, but they have been through sound changes over the course of their career.

Line up:

Darren Johnson - Vocals (lead), Bass
Bruce Fitzhugh - Guitars
Jason Truby - Guitars
Lance Garvin - Drums

Lyrics:

Ending all of life beginning of death
Soul has been lost taken last breath
Descent to darkness life forever left
Imprisoned awaiting the second death
Incarcerate in a solid rock cell
Facing the reality the present hell
Absolute darkness one of isolation
Soul of the lost with will of separation
Rejected God intentionally unaware
Voluntary placement for this eternal nightmare
Losing grip of sanity mind goes insane
Loneliness of death creeps in to reign
Vile stench begins to fill the air
Demons gather with a hideous glare
Assembled to inflict verbal torment
Reminded of salvation seeds forever dormant
Now seeing through their black lies
Realization of eternity bleeds into cries
Sneering and chanting manifesting on the walls
Interrupted torture by the great one who calls
Transformed to the great white throne
Standing before God yet still alone
He releases the love that won't be received
Convicted now but too late to believe
Laid out for all his perfect will
And ignorant life remains unfulfilled
