Reluctant Messiah Lyrics

Reluctant messiah, show us the way
Don't let us down, we have no one left
Your unwillingness to prove, what we believe
The signs you won't leave, we still seem to find

Such distance between us, but we know you are here
We feel your presence, it guides us along
But why won't you answer or send us some hope
We'll just keep searching for what we know is there

Why has our day not yet come
We've sacrificed our fathers and sons
We spill blood but shed not a tear
Our anger grows, but so does our fear

Speak to us
What have we done wrong
We just want to believe In something larger than life itself
Speak to us
Let us know your voice
We just want you to see
Our faith is true
We just want you to see
Our faith is true


What more can we do
He must feel our devotion
Will he know the righteous from the fallen...
Will he know we're the first in line
Save us from our fate
Save us from our faith

Immolation is a death metal band from Yonkers, New York. They were formed in 1986 as Rigor Mortis. The name was changed to Immolation in late 1987, between the "Warriors of Doom" demo which was done as Rigor Mortis and "Demo I" which was done as Immolation. The band recorded 4 songs on the "Demo II" 1989 sessions, but only 3 were finally released: "Internal decadence", "Burial Ground" and "Despondent Souls". The remaining song is "Infectious Blood" (later re-named "Fall in Disease" on the "Dawn of Possession" Album). This song remained unavailable until the release of "Stepping on Angels...Before Dawn" CD.

In 1991, the band got a deal with Roadrunner Records and released their debut album Dawn of Possession. They were dropped by the label when the label dropped nearly all of the death metal bands. Later, they were picked up by Metal Blade Records and released the three succeeding albums through them. After the second one Here in After, drummer Craig Smilowski left the band and was replaced by Alex Hernandez who immediately boosted the technical proficiency of the band as a whole. The most recent two albums were released by Listenable Records. Unholy Cult saw the departure of guitarist Thomas Wilkinson, and Steve Shalaty replaced Hernandez on Harnessing Ruin.
