Metallica Lyrics

Fade To Black
     Life it seems, will fade away
     Drifting further every day
     Getting lost within myself
     Nothing matters no one else
     I have lost the will to live
     Simply nothing more to give
     There is nothing more for me
     Need the end to set me free
     Things are not what they used to be
     Missing one inside of me
     Deathly lost, this can't be real
     Cannot stand this hell I feel
     Emptiness is filing me
     To the point of agony
     Growing darkness taking dawn
     I was me, but now He's gone

     No one but me can save myself, but it's to late
     Now I can't think, think why I should even try


     Yesterday seems as though it never existed
     Death Greets me warm, now I will just say good-bye


The Unforgiven

New blood joins this earth
and quikly he's subdued
through constant pain disgrace
the young boy learns their rules

with time the child draws in
this whipping boy done wrong
deprived of all his thoughts
the young man struggles on and on he's known
a vow unto his own
that never from this day
his will they'll take away

    what I've felt
    what I've known
    never shined through in what I've shown
    never be
    never see
    won't see what might have been

    what I've felt
    what I've known
    never shined through in what I've shown
    never free
    never meso I dub thee unforgiven

they dedicate their lives
to running all of his
he tries to please them all
this bitter man he is
throughout his life the same
he's battled constantly
this fight he cannot win
a tired man they see no longer cares
the old man then prepares
to die regretfully
that old man here is me

    what I've felt
    what I've known
    never shined through in what I've shown
    never be
    never see
    won't see what might have been
    what I've felt
    what I've known
    never shined through in what I've shown
    never free
    never me
    so I dub the unforgiven

you labeled me
I'll label you
so I dub the unforgiven


Nothing Else Matters
So close no matter how far
couldn't be much more from the heart
forever trusting who we are
and nothing else matters never opened myself this way
life is ours, we live it our way
all these words I don't just say
and nothing else matters

trust I seek and I find in you
every day for us something new
open mind for a different view
and nothing else matters

    never cared for what they do
    never cared for what they know
    but I know

so close no matter how far
couldn't be much more from the heart
forever trusting who we are
and nothing else mattersnever cared for what they do
    never cared for what they know
    but I know

never opened myself this way
life is ours, we live it our way
all these words I don't just say

trust I seek and I find in you
every day for us something new
open mind for a different view
and nothing else matters

    never cared for what they say
    never cared for games they play
    never cared for what they do
    never cared for what they know
    and I know

so close no matter how far
couldn't be much more from the heart
forever trusting who we are
no nothing else matters


Sad but True
Hey

I'm the one who takes you there
hey

I'm your only true friend now
theythey'll betray
I'm forever there

   I'm your dream, make you real
   I'm your eyes when you must steal
   I'm your pain when you can't feel
   sad but true

   I'm your dream, mind astray
   I'm your eyes while you're away
   I'm your pain while you repay
   you know it's sad but true

you
you're my mask
you're my cover, my shelter
you

you're the one who's blamed
dodo my work
do my dirty work, scapegoat
do
do my deeds
for you're the one who's shamed

   I'm your dream, make you real
   I'm your eyes when you must steal
   I'm your pain when you can't feel
   sad but true

   I'm your dream, mind astray
   I'm your eyes while you're away
   I'm your pain while you repay
   you know it's
   sad but true

I'm your hate
I'm your hate when you want love
paypay the price

hey
I'm your life
I'm the one who took you here
hey
I'm your life
and I no longer care

   I'm your dream, make you real
   I'm your eyes when you must steal
   I'm your pain when you can't feel
   sad but true

   I'm your truth, telling lies
   I'm your reasoned alibis
   I'm inside 
   open your eyes
   I'm your
sad but true


Hero of the day
The window burns to light the way back home
 A light that warms no matter where they go
 They're off to find the hero of the day
 But what if they should fall by someone's wicked way
 Still the window burns
 Time so slowly turns
 And someone there is sighing
 Keepers of the flames
 Do you feel your name?
 Did you hear your babies crying?
 Mama they try and break me
 Still they try and break me
 Excuse me while I tell them how to feel
 These things return to me that still seem real
 Now deservingly this easy chair
 But the rocking starts the wheels of dispair
 Don't want your hate
 But the fist I make
 For you can hold no fear
 No not on me
 So please excuse me while I tell them how I feel
 But now the dreams end
 And now the dreams end
 They everlast the night
 So build a wall
 Behind it crawl
 And hide until it's light
 So can you hear your babies crying now?
 Still the window burns
 Time so slowly turns
 And someone there is sighing
 Keepers of the flames
 Did you hear your name?
 Did you hear your babies crying?
 But now the dreams end
 And now the dreams end
 They everlast the night
 So build a wall
 Behind it crawl
 And hide until it's light
 So can't you hear your babies crying now?
 Mama they try and break me
 Mama they try and break me
 Mama they try and break me
 Mama they try
 Mama they try
 Mama they try and break me
 Mama they try and break me
 Mama they try and break me
 Mama they try
 Mama they try
