In 2002 there was a major step forward with their first full length album "Cold Black Piece of Flesh", released on Whirlwind Records. Basically into the old school Death Metal vein but with a significant approach to the modern views of the genre, Sacrificium made clear how they would carry from that point. That caught the attention of the press again (Rock Hard 7.5/10, Metal Hammer 6/7) and pushed Sacrificium forward. Eeverytime at numerous shows in small and big clubs and on festivals in Germany and throughout Europe, Sacrificium gathered new fans. With live experience, enormous precision, energy and emotions Sacrificium rolls over their audience like thunder.
And so it happened that in summer 2005 Sacrificium caught the attention of Black Lotus Records and in winter 05/06 their second album "Escaping The Stupor" got released world wide by Black Lotus Records. And again, it didn't take long to receive reactions and consistently positive critics from the press. With ads and interviews in the major Metal Magazines it doesn't want for nothing, so that Sacrificium can concentrate completely on the upcoming live presence.
Kill Me
Sacrificium Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Still I stand
Unto my savior - you deny
You follow the líe
Here am I confronting you
With the truth you perverted
The puppet on a string is you
I am not afraid - to die
Burn me, stab me, drown me, crucific me - to death
You're the slave - not me
Slaved by the lie
You're the one - who'll die
Dying for all eternity
The lie swallowed your soul
The song "Kill Me" by Sacrificium starts off with a very intense and aggressive vibe. The first line "So much anger - against me" sets the tone for the rest of the song. The lyrics then move on to a confrontation between the singer and someone who is denying their savior. The singer is standing strong, even though they are being faced with a lot of anger and hostility. The person they are confronting is following a lie and has become a sort of puppet on a string. The last part of the song is a statement of defiance, with the singer saying they are not afraid to die, and challenging the other person to do their worst, even if it means being burned, stabbed, drowned or crucified to death.
This song is a powerful reflection of the struggle between faith and deception, and the ways in which those who deny the truth can become lost in their own lies. The lyrics are very strong and bold, and the music is heavy and intense, creating a sense of urgency and determination that is both powerful and inspiring.
