Biography

Heavy Metal band formed in Seattle in 1985, was a pet discovery of Megadeth guitarist Dave Mustaine. He helped get the band signed to CBS/Epic Records, produced their first album, and took them on the road with Megadeth. The band consisted of vocalist Warrel Dane, guitarists Lenny Rutledge and Sean Blosl, bassist Jim Sheppard, and drummer Dave Budbill; after their second album, Sanctuary disbanded, with Dane and Sheppard going on to form Nevermore. *P.S. Jeff Loomis sent a tape to metal band Sanctuary when he heard they had lost their guitarist. He got the job, but it was not slated to be a long-lasting one. The group broke up two months later in 1991. However, as the ashes of Sanctuary were clearing, Loomis, along with two other members of the group, formed the band Nevermore.

LYRICS

[Written by: L. Rutledge & W. Dane]
You take the first blow, I taste revenge
Let anger come my will is done, malicious in my intent
The hate is rising, the swell of fear takes over
And, oh the taste is sweet my friend
So bittersweet

No more anger, I've had my revenge
Beg for mercy, I'll take you down
No more hatred, I've had my revenge
Eye for an eye, taste my revenge

Caught in a time warp, rage in the wind
The shock of surprise still in your eyes
As you met your violent end
Your strength was failing, degrading you was power
My recourse is complete my friend
So bittersweet

No more anger, I've had my revenge
Beg for mercy, I'll take you down
No more hatred, I've had my revenge
Eye for an eye, taste my revenge

As you implore on bended knee
Do you regret what you've done to me?
No matter how you plead, I'll take you down

The hate is rising, the swell of fear takes over
And, oh the taste is sweet me friend
So bittersweet

No more anger, I've had my revenge
Beg for mercy, I'll take you down
No more hatred, I've had my revenge
Eye for an eye, taste my revenge

As you implore on bended knee
Do you regret what you've done to me?
No matter how you plead, I'll take you down
