The Day, The Earth Lyrics

Rejected by my own kind
don't understand the crime I've done
should never have trusted that hatebreed
maybe I'm better of gone
is this a punishment for being scared
cause that's what I've always been
and now that I stand here alone
must be the saddest sight ever seen
my eyes work slow
it's not easy to express a feeling
when they think my heart is of stone
with one square foot and a ceiling
even the toughest feel like a pulverised bone
now I'm not even close to my former self
I'll be nothing if they go on like this
hope they will be satisfied now when I'm low
beaten down and left in my own piss
I'm sorry to say, I don't care if you pray
it can't go on like this
just leave me alone, let me rot to my bones
my eyes work slow

Entombed is a death metal band from Stockholm, Sweden which formed in 1989 after the dissolution of Nihilist. Though Entombed began their career as an early pioneer of Scandinavian death metal, by the early 1990s their sound had broadened to include hard rock and other influences. This new style would eventually be described as Death 'n' Roll, of which Entombed remains arguably the best-known example.

Entombed's debut album was Left Hand Path, a cult favorite that established the band as a popular death metal band. The follow-up, Clandestine, was just as popular. These first two albums were unique in that they featured what was sometimes referred to as an "chain saw" guitar sound. It was created using the Boss Heavy Metal distortion pedal and a Peavey amplifier.

After the Gods of Grind tour, Entombed began changing their sound into a mix of hard rock and death metal frequently called Death and Roll. Although this may have turned off many fans, it established their mainstream and critical reputation. Wolverine Blues and Hollowman are widely considered classics of early 1990s death metal, but were followed by problems with various record companies.

In 1999, Entombed released Uprising, which was an anti-commercial return to the band's roots. The follow-up, Morning Star returned to Hollowman and Wolverine Blues style metal. They have since released 2003's album Inferno, a continuation of the 'death n roll' style that has become their trademark sound.

2006 saw the release of new music from Entombed, with the When in Sodom EP on June 6 (or 06/06/06), and the full length album Serpent Saints - The Ten Amendments was released on July 9th, 2007. This album is the group's first release with drummer Olle Dahlstedt (of Alpha Safari and ex-Misery Loves Co.), who replaced long-time drummer Peter Stjärnvind in 2006.
