Song lyrics
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...

one of my all time favourites...dimebag darrell makes every power ballad before this one seem so weak...its a must hear...this song shows a dynamic of Pantera that is often overlooked...that the moments when they shine is when they slow it down

Yeah this song is pretty good, seeing as I'm not a big fan of Pantera....it's still cool though

I love this song. Had my friend not been learning how to play it, I'd never have heard of it. It's amazing. <3

I think this is the greatest song of Pantera. I love Anselmo and his voice.

Anselmo and Dimebag really show their brilliance to all the pussies that don't like their harder stuff. This song is so great. It belongs on Vulgar Display of Power (their masterpiece CD).

This shows the versitillity of Pantera, and I love the slower pace, and the eerie mystique
but its got only one minor problem: length
STILL LOVE IT!!

the day dime left us, i had got my guitar back from the shop, got new strings put on. all day i was jammin to cemetery gates on my guitar. literally hours, i love this song. at 11 CST, roughly a few hours after the incident, i found out he was killed. now i'm from texas, so i take it personally when one of my bros gets shot up like that. fukn ridiculous. God bless dimebag. \m/

Sorry, I'm going to have to disagree with mi ra nd a. But of course, we all have our own opinions. I love Pantera. My boyfriend is a complete metal head and introduced me to them and other bands in their genre. This song is one of their best.
