Pantera byla založena v roce 1981 bratry Diamondem Darrellem a Vincentem Paulem Abbottovými, kteří se rozhodli hrát hudbu, jakou mají rádi, tudíž tehdy ještě glam metal, spolu s baskytaristou Tommym Bradfordem, kytaristou Terrym Glazem a zpěvákem...

Reverend, Reverend, 
Is this some conspiracy? 
Crucified for no sins 
Put an image, beneath me 
What's within my plans for life 
It all seems so unreal 
I'm a man, couldn't have feel this world 
Left in my misery 


The reverend he turned to me 
Without a tear in his eyes 
Nothing new for him to see 
I didn't ask him why 
I will remember 
The love our souls had 
Sworn to make 
Now I watch the falling rain 
All my mind can see 
Now is your (face) 


Well I guess 
You took my youth 
And gave it all away 
Like the birth of a 
New found joy 
This love would end in rage 
And when she died 
I couldn't cry 
The pride within my soul 
You left me incomplete 
All alone as the 
Memories now unfold 


Believe the word 
I will unlock my door 
And pass the 
Cemetary gates 


Sometimes when I'm alone 
I wonder all aloud 
If you're watching over me 
Some place far abound 
I must reverse my life 
I can't live in the past 
Then set my soul free 
Belong to me at last 


Through all those 
Complex years 
I thought I was alone 
I didn't care to look around 
And make this world my own 
And when she died 
I should've cried and spared myself some pain... 
You left me incomplete 
All alone as the memories still remain 


The way we were 
The chance to save my soul 
And my concern is now in vain 


Believe the word 
I will unlock my door 
And pass the 
Cemetary gates 


The way we were 
The chance to save my soul 
And my concern is now in vain 


Believe the word 
I will unlock my door 
And pass the 
Cemetary gates 


Gates... 
Gates...
