Blackened

Blackened is the end
Winter it will send
Throwing all you see
Into obscurity

Death of mother earth
Never a rebirth
Evolution 's end
Never will it end

Never
    Fire
    To begin whipping dance of the dead
    Blackened is the end
    To begin whipping dance of the dead
    Color our world blackened

Blustering of earth
Terminate its worth
Deadly nicotine
Kills what might have been

Callous frigid chill
Nothing left to kill
Never seen before
Breathing nevermore

Never
    Fire
    To begin whipping dance of the dead
    Blackened is the end
    To begin whipping dance of the dead
    Color our world blackened

                    Blackened

Opposition..Contradiction..Premonition..Compromise
Agitation..Violation.......Mutilation...Planet Dies

  Darkest color
  Blistered earth
  True death of life

 Termination..Expiration..Cancellation..Human Race
 Xpectation to waste
   See our mother
   Put to death
   See our mother die

Smouldering decay
Take her breath away
Millions of our years
In minutes disappears

Darkening in vain
Decadence remains
All is said and done
Never is the sun

Never

    Fire
    To begin whipping dance of the dead
    Blackened is the end
    To begin whipping dance of the dead
    Fire
    Is the outcome of hypocrisy
    Darkest potency
    In the exit of humanity
    Color our world blackened

                    Blackened


    ... And Justice For All

    Halls of justice painted green
    Money talking
    Power wolves besert your door
    Hear them stalking
    Soon you'll please their appetite
    They devour
    Hammer of justice crushes you
    Overpower

        The ultimate in vanity
        Exploiting  their supremacy
        I can't believe the things you say
        I can't believe
        I can't believe the price you pay
        Nothing can save you

               Justice is lost
               Justice is raped

        Justice is gone
               Pulling your strings
        Justice is done
               Seeking no truth
               Winning is all
               Find it so grim
                       So true
                       So real

   Apathy their stepping stone
   So unfeeling
   Hidden deep animosity
   So decieving
   Through your eyes their light burns
   Hoping to find
   Inquisition sinking you
   With prying minds

         The ultimate in vanity
         Exploiting their supremacy
         I can't believe the things you say
         I can't believe
         I can't believe the price you pay
         Nothing can save you

               Justice is lost
               Justice is raped
               Justice is gone
                  Pulling your strings
               Justice is done
                  Seeking no truth
                  Winning is fail
                  Find it so grim
                          So true
                          So real

            Lady justice has been raped
            Truth assassin
            Rolls of red tape seal your lips
            Now you're done in
            Their money tips her scales again
            Make you deal
            Just what is truth? I cannot tell
            Cannot feel

               The ultimate in vanity
               Exploiting their supremacy
               I can't believe the things you say
               I can't believe
               I can't believe the price we pay
               Nothing can save us

                        Justice is lost
                        Justice is raped
                        Justice is gone
                           Pulling your strings
                        Justice is done
                           Seeking no truth
                           Winning is all
                           Find it so grim
                                   So true
                                   So real

                           Seeking no truth
                           Winning is all
                           Find it so grim
                                   So true
                                   So real


      Eye Of The Beholder

       Do you see what I see?
       Truth is an offense
       You silence for your confidence

       Do you hear what I hear?
       Doors are slamming shut
       Limit your imagination, keep you where they must

       Do you feel what I feel?
       Bittering distress
       Who decides what you express?

       Do you take what I take?
       Endurance is the word
       Moving back instead of forward seems to me absurd

         Doesn't matter what you see
         Or into it what you read
         You can do it your own way
         If it's done just how I say

               Independence limited
               Freedom of choice
               Choice is made for you my friend
               Freedom of speech
               Speech is words that they will bend
               Freedom with their exception

          Do you fear what I fear?
          Living properly
          Truths to you are lies to me
          Do you choose what I choose?
          More alternatives
          Energy derives from both the plus and negative

          Do you need what I need?
          Boundaries overthrown
          Look inside, to each his own

          Do you trust what I trust?
          Or into what you read
          You can do it your own way
          If it's done just how I say

               Independence limited
               Freedom of choice
               Choice is made for you my friend
               Freedom of speech
               Speech is words that they will bend
               Freedom with their exception

           Do you know what I know?
           Your money and your wealth
           You silence just to hear yourself

           Do you know what I want?
           Desire not a thing
           I hunger after independance, lengthen freedom's ring

               Doesn't matter what you see
               Or into what you read
               You can do it you own way
               If it's done just how I say

                  Independance limited
                  Freedom of choice
                  Choice is made for you my freind
                  Freedom of speech
                  Speech is words that they will bend
                  Freedom no longer frees you

               Doesn't matter what you see
               Or into what you read
               You can do it your own way
               If it's done just how I say

            One

       I can't remember anything
       Can't tell if this is true or dream
       Deep down inside I feel to scream
       This terrible silence stops me

       Now that the war is through with me
       I'm waking up, I cannot see
       That there's not much left of me
       Nothing is real but pain now

               Hold my breath as I wish for death
               Oh please god, wake me

       Back in the womb it's much too real
       In pumps life that I must feel
       But I can't look forward to reveal
       Look to the time when i'll live

       Fed through the tube that sticks in me
       Just like a wartime novelty
       Tied to machines that make me be
       Cut this life off from me

               Hold my breath as I wish for death
               Oh please god, wake me

               Now the world is gone i'm just one
               Oh god, help me hold my breath as I wish for death
               Oh please god, help me

       Darkness  Imprisoning me
                 All that I see
                 Absolute horror
                 I cannot live
                 I cannot die
                 Trapped in myself
                 Body my holding cell

       Landmine  Has taken my sight
                 Taken my speech
                 Taken my hearing
                 Taken my arms
                 Taken my legs
                 Taken my soul
                 Left me with life in hell


        The Shortest Straw

       Suspicion is your name
       Your honesty to blame
       Put dignity to shame
       Dishonor
       Witchhunt, modern day
       Determining decay
       The blatant disarray
       Disfigure
       The public eyes' disgrace
       Defying common place
       Unending paper chase
       Unending

       Deafening
       Painstaking
       Reckoning
       This vertigo it doith bring

               Shortest straw
               Challenge liberty
               Downed by law
               Live in infamy
               Rub you raw
               Witchhunt riding through
               Shortest straw
               This shortest straw has been pulled for you

               Pulled for you
                  Shortest straw
               Pulled for you
                  Shortest straw
               Pulled for you
                  Shortest straw
               Shortest straw has been pulled for you

       The accusations fly
       Discrimination, why?
       Your inner self to die
       Intruding
       Doubt sunk itself in you
       It's teeth and talons through
       Your living catch-22
       Deluding
       A mass hysteria
       A megalomania
       Reveal dementia
       Reveal

       Secretly
       Silently
       Certainly
       In vertigo you will be

               Shortest straw
               Challenge liberty
               Downed by law
               Live in infamy
               Rub you raw

                  Shortest straw
               Shortest straw has been pulled for you

       Behind you, hands are tied
       Your being, ostracized
       Your hell is multiplied
       Upending
       The fallout has begun
       Oppresive damage done
       Your many turned to none
       To nothing
       You're reaching you nadir
       Your will has disappeared
       The life is crystal clear
       Defending

       Channels red
       One word said
       Blacklisted
       With vertigo make you dead

            Shortest straw
            Challenge liberty
            Downed by law
            Live in infamy
            Rub you raw
            Witchhunt riding through
            Shortest straw
            This shortest straw has been pulled for you
                                         Pulled for you



       Harvester Of Sorrow

       My life suffocates
       Planting seeds of hate
       I've loved, turned to hate
       Trapped far beyond my fate

       I give
       You take
       This life that I forsake
       Been cheated of my youth
       You turned this lie to truth

               Anger
               Misery
               You'll suffer unto me

               Harvester of sorrow
               Language of the land
               Harvester of sorrow

       Pure black looking clear
       My work is done soon here
       Try getting back to me
       Get back which used to be

       Drink up
       Shoot in
       Let the beatings begin
       Distributor of pain
       Your loss becomes my gain

               Anger
               Misery
               You'll suffer unto me

                    Harvester of sorrow
                    Language of the mad
                    Harvester of sorrow

       All have said their prayers
       Invade their nightmares
       To see into my eyes
       You'll find where murder lies

       Infanticide

                   Harvester of sorrow
                   Language of the mad
                   Harvester of sorrow
                   Language of the mad
                   Harvester of sorrow

       The Frayed Ends Of Sanity

       Never hunger
       Never prosper
       I have fallen prey to failure
       Struggle within
       Triggered again
       Now the candle burns at both ends

       Twisting under schizophrenia
       Falling deep into dementia

          Old habits reappear
          Fighting the fear of fear
          Growing conspiracy
          Everyone's after me
          Frayed ends of sanity
          Hear them calling
          Hear them calling me

       Birth of terror
       Death of much more
       I'm the slave of fear, my captor
       Never warnings
       Spreading its wings
       As I wait for the horror she brings
       Loss of interest, question, wonder
       Waves of fear they pull me under

          Old habits reappear
          Fighting the fear of fear
          Growing conspiracy
          Everyone's after me
          Frayed ends of sanity
          Hear them calling
          Hear them calling me

       Into ruin
       I am sinking
       Hostage of this nameless feeling
       Hell is set free
       Flooded i'll be
       Feel the undertow inside me

       Height, hell, time, haste, terror, tension,
       Life, death, want, waste, mass depression

           Old habits reappear
           Fighting the fear of fear
           Growing conspiracy
           Myself is after me
           Frayed ends of sanity
           Hear them calling
           Frayed ends of sanity
           Hear them calling
           Hear them calling me


       To Live Is To Die

       When a man lies he murders
         Some part of the world
       These are the pale deaths which
         Men miscall their lives
       All this I cannot bear
         To witness any longer
       Cannot the kingdom of salvation
         Take me home

       Dyers Eve

       Dear mother
       Dear father
       What is this hell you have put me through
       Believer
       Deceiver
       Day in day out live my life through you
       Pushed onto me what's wrong or right
       Hidden from this thing that they call life

       Dear mother
       Dear father
       Every thought i'd think you'd disapprove
       Curator
       Dictator
       Always censoring my every move
       Children are seen but are not heard
       Tear out everything inspired

           Innocence
           Torn from me without your shelter
           Barred reality
           I'm living blindly

       Dear mother
       Dear father
       Time has frozen still what's left to be
       Hear nothing
       Say nothing
       Cannot face the fact I think for me
       No guarantee, it's life as is
       But damn you for not giving me my chance

       Dear mother
       Dear father
       You've clipped my wings before I learned to fly
       Unspoiled
       I've outgrown that fucking lullaby
       Same thing i've always heard from you
       Do as I say not as I do


          Innocence
          Torn from me without your shelter
          Barred reality
          I'm living blindly
          I'm in hell without you
          Cannot cope without you two
          Shocked at the world that I see
          Innocent victim please rescue me

       Dear mother
       Dear father
       Hidden in your world you've made for me
       I'm seething
       I'm bleeding
       Ripping wounds in me that never heal
       Undying spite I feel for you
       Living out this hell you always knew.



Hit The Lights

No life till leather
We are gonna kick some ass tonight
We got the metal madness
When our fans start screaming
  It's right well allright
When we start to rock
We never want to stop again

       Hit the lights
       Hit the lights
       Hit the lights

You know our fans are insane
We are gonna blow this place away
With volume higher
Than anything today the only way
When we start to rock
We never want to stop again

       Hit the lights
       Hit the lights
       Hit the lights

With all out screaming
We are gonna rip right through your brain
We got the lethal power
It is causing you sweet pain oh sweet pain
When we start to rock
We never want to stop again

       Hit the lights
       Hit the lights
       Hit the lights


The Four Horsemen

By the last breath of the fourth winds blow
Better raise your ears
The sound of hooves knock at your door
Lock up your wife and children now
It's time to wield the blade
For now you have got the same company

       The horsemen are drawing nearer
       On the leather steeds they ride
       They have come to take your life
       On through the dead of night
       With the four horsemen ride
       Or choose your fate and die

You have been dying since the day
  You were born
You know it has all been planned
The quartet of deliverance rides
A sinner once a sinner twice
No need for confession now
Cause now you have got the fight of your life

       The horsemen are drawing nearer
       On the leather steeds they ride
       They have come to take your life
       On through the dead of night
       With the four horsemen ride
       Or choose your fate and die

Time
Has taken its toll on you
The lines that crack your face
Famine
Your body it has torn through
Withered in every place
Pestilence
For what you have had to endure
And what you put others through
Death
Deliverance for you for sure
There is nothing you can do

So gather round young warriors now
And saddle up your steeds
Killing scores with demon swords
Now is the death of doers of wrong
Swing the judgement hammer down
Safely inside armor blood guts and sweat

       The horsemen are drawing nearer
       On the leather steeds they ride
       They have come to take your life
       On through the dead of night
       With the four horsemen ride
       Or choose your fate and die

Motorbreath

Living and dying laughing and crying
Once you have seen it you will never
 Be the same
Life in the fast lane is just how it seems
Hard and it is heavy dirty and mean

       Motorbreath
       Its how I live my life
       I can't take it any other way
       Motorbreath
       The sign of living fast
       It is going to take
       Your breath away

Don't stop for nothing its full speed
  Or nothing
I am taking down you know whatever is
  In my way
Getting your kicks as you are shooting
  The line
Sending the shivers up and down your spine

       Motorbreath
       Its how I live my life
       I can't take it any other way
       Motorbreath
       The sign of living fast
       It is going to take
       Your breath away

Those people who tell you not to
  Take chances
They are all missing on what life is about
You only live once so take hold of the chance
Don't end up like others the same song
  And dance

       Motorbreath
       Its how I live my life
       I can't take it any other way
       Motorbreath
       The sign of living fast
       It is going to take
       Your breath away


Jump In The Fire

Down in the depths of my firey home
The summons bell will chime
Tempting you and all the earth
To join our sinful kind
There is a job to be done and i'm the one
You people make me do it
Now it is time for your fate and I won't
  Hesitate
To pull you down into this pit

       So come on
       Jump in the fire
       So come on
       Jump in the fire

With hell in my eyes and with death in my veins
The end is closing in
Feeding on the minds of man
And from their souls within
My disciples all shout to search out
And they always shall obey
Follow me now my child not the meek or
  The mild
But do just as I say

       So come on
       Jump in the fire
       So come on
       Jump in the fire

Jump by your will or be taken by force
I'll get you either way
Trying to keep the hellfire lit
I am stalking you as prey
Living your life as me I am you you see
There is part of me in everyone
So reach down grab my hand walk with me
  Through the land
Come home where you belong

       So come on
       Jump in the fire
       So come on
       Jump in the fire

 Whiplash

 Late at night all systems go
 You have come to see the show
 We do our best you're the best
 You make it real you know
 There is a feeling deep inside
 That drives you fuckin' mad
 A feeling of a hammerhead
 You need it oh so bad

       Adrelin starts to flow
       You're thrashing all around
       Acting like a maniac
       Whiplash

 Bang your head against the stage
 Like you never did before
 Make it ring make it bleed
 Make it really sore
 In a frenzied madness
 With your leathers and your spikes
 Heads are bobbing around
 It is hot as hell tonight

       Adrelin starts to flow
       You're thrashing all around
       Acting like a maniac
       Whiplash

 Here on stage the marshall noise
 Is piercing through your ears
 It kicks your ass kick your face
 Exploding feeling nears
 Now is the time to let it rip
 To let it fuckin' loose
 We are gathered here to maim and kill
 Cause this is what we choose

       Adrelin starts to flow
       You're thrashing all around
       Acting like a maniac
       Whiplash

 The show is through the metal is gone
 It is time to hit the road
 Another town another gig
 Hotel rooms and motorways
 Life out here is raw
 But we will never stop
 We will never quit
 Cause we are Metallica

       Adrenalin starts to flow
       You're thrashing all around
       Acting like a maniac
       Whiplash



Phantom Lord

Sound is ripping through your ears
The deafening sound of metal nears
Your bodies waiting for his whips
The taste of leather on your lips

       Hear the cry of war
       Louder than before
       With his sword in hand
       To control the land
       Crushing metal strikes
       On his frightening night
       Fall onto your knees
       For the phantom lord

Victims falling under chains
You hear them crying dying pains
The first of terrors breaking through
Now there's nothing you can do

       Hear the cry of war
       Louder than before
       With his sword in hand
       To control the land
       Crushing metal strikes
       On his frightening night
       Fall onto your knees
       For the phantom lord

The leathered armies have prevailed
The phantom lord has never failed
Smoke is lifting from the ground
The rising volume metal sound

       Hear the cry of war
       Louder than before
       With his sword in hand
       To control the land
       Crushing metal strikes
       On his frightening night
       Fall onto your knees
       For the phantom lord

Fall to your knees
And bow to the phantom lord

No Remorse

No mercy for what we are doing
No thought to even what we have done
We don't need to feel the sorrow
No remorse for the helpless one

       War without end
       No remorse no repent
       We don't care what it meant
       Another day another death

       Another sorrow another breath
       No remorse no repent
       We don't care what it meant
       Another day another death
       Another sorrow another breath

Blood feeds the war machine
As it eats its way across the land
We don't need to feel the sorrow
No remorse is the one command

       War without end
       No remorse no repent
       We don't care what it meant
       Another day another death

       Another sorrow another breath
       No remorse no repent
       We don't care what it meant
       Another day another death
       Another sorrow another breath

 Only the strong survive
 No will to save the weaker face
 We are ready to kill all comers
 Like a loaded gun right at your face

       War without end
       No remorse no repent
       We don't care what it meant
       Another day another death

       Another sorrow another breath
       No remorse no repent
       We don't care what it meant
       Another day another death
       Another sorrow another breath

  Attack
  Bullets are flying
  People are dying
    With madness surrounding all hell's
    Breaking loose
  Soldiers are hounding
  Bodies are mounting
    Cannons are shouting to take their abuse
  With war machines going
  Blood starts to flowing
  No mercy given to anyone hear
  The furious fighting
  Swords are like lighting
  It all becomes frightening you
  Know death is near
  No remorse

  Seek And Destroy

  In the city tonite

  In our brains

  Say goodbye
  To the world you live in
  You have always been taking
  But now your giving

Our brains are on fire
With the feeling to kill
And it will not go away
There is only one thing
On our minds
Don't try running away
Cause you're the one we will find

       Running,
       On our way
       Hiding,
       You will pay
       Dying,
       One thousand deaths
       Running

Metal Militia

Thunder and lightning the gods
  Take revenge
Senseless destruction
Victims of fury are cowardly now
Running for safety
Stabbing the harlot to pay for her sins
Leaving the virgin
Suicide running as if it were free
Ripping and tearing

Nine and one thousand
Metal militia for your sacrifice
Iron clad soldiers
Join or be conquered the law of the land
What will befall you
The metalization of your inner soul
Twisting and turning

Fighting for one cause
Leather and metal are our uniforms
Protecting what we are
Joining together to take on the world
With our heavy metal
Spreading the message to everyone here
Come let yourself go

Enter Sandman

Say your prayers little one
Don't forget, my son
To include everyone

Tuck you in, warm within
Keep you free from sin
Till the sandman he comes

   Sleep with one eye open
   Gripping your pillow tight

    Exit: Light
    Enter: Night
    Take my hand
    We're off to never never land

Something's wrong, shut the light
Heavy thoughts tonight
And they aren't of snow white

Dreams of war, dreams of liars
Dreams of dragon's fire
And of things that will bite

    Sleep with one eye open
    Gripping your pillow tight

     Exit: Light
     Enter: Night
     Take my hand
     We're off to never never land

Now I lay me down to sleep
Pray the lord my soul to keep
If I die before I wake
Pray the lord my soul to take

Hush little baby, don't say a word
And never mind that noise you heard
It's just the beast under your bed,
In your closet, in your head

     Exit: Light
     Enter: Night
     Grain of sand

     Exit: Light
     Enter: Night
     Take my hand
     We're off to never never land

Sad But True

Hey
I'm your life
I'm the one who takes you there
Hey
I'm your life
I'm the one who cares
They
They betray
I'm your only true friend now
They
They'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 my mask
You're the one who's blamed
Do
Do 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 sab but true

Hate
I'm your hate
I'm your hate when you want love
Pay
Pay the price
Pay, for nothing's fair

Hey
I'm your life
I'm the one who took you there
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 reason  Alibis
    I'm inside       Open your eyes
    I'm you
    Sad but true

Holier Than Thou

No more!
The crap rolls out your mouth again
Haven't changed, your brain is still gelatin
Little whispers circle around your head
Why don't you worry about yourself instead

Who are you? Where ya been? Where ya from?
Gossip is burning on the tip of your tongue
You lie so much you believe yourself
Judge not lest ye be judged yourself

   Holier than thou
   You are
   Holier than thou
   You are

   You know not

Before you judge me take a look at you too
Can't you find something better to do
Point the finger, slow to understand
Arrogance and ignorance go hand in hand

It's not who you are it's who you know
Others lives are the basis of your own
Burn your bridges build them back with wealth
Judge not lest ye be judged yourself

     Holier than thou
     You are
     Holier than thou
     You are

     You know not

The Unforgiven

New blood joins this earth
And quickly he's subdued
Through constant pained 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 one 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 me
   So 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
The 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 thee unforgiven

Wherever I May Roam

...And the road becomes my bride
I have stripped of all but pride
So in her I do confide
And she keeps me satisfied
Gives me all I need

...And with dust in throat I crave
Only knowledge will I save
To the game you stay a slave
Rover     Wanderer
Nomad     Vagabond
Call me what you will

    But I'll take my time anywhere
    Free to speak my mind anywhere
    And I'll redefine anywhere
      Anywhere I roam
      Where I lay my head is home

...And the earth becomes my throne
I adapt to the unknown
Under wandering stars I've grown
By myself but not alone
I ask no one

...And my tears are severed clean
The less I have the more I gain
Off the beaten path I reign
Rover       Wanderer
Nomad       Vagabond
Call me what you will

    But I'll take my time anywhere
    I'm free to speak my mind anywhere
    And I'll never mind anywhere
      Anywhere I roam
      Where I lay my head is home

    But I'll take my time anywhere
    Free to speak my mind
    And I'll take my find anywhere
      Anywhere I roam
      Where I lay my head is home

    Carved upon my stone
    My body lie, but still I roam
       Wherever I may roam

Don't Tread On Me

Liberty or death, what we so proudly hail
Once you provoke her, rattling of her tail
Never begins it, never, but once engaged...
Never surrenders, showing the fangs of rage

Don't tread on me

   So be it
   Threaten no more
   To secure peace is to prepare for war
   So be it
   Settle the score
   Touch me again for the words that you'll hear evermore

Don't tread on me

Love it or leave it, she with the deadly bite
Quick is the blue tongue, forked as the lightning strike
Shining with brightness, always on surveillance
The eyes, they never close, emblem of vigilance

Don't tread on me

   So be it
   Threaten no more
   To secure peace is to prepare for war
   So be it
   Settle the score
   Touch me again for the words that you'll hear evermore

Don't tread on me

   So be it
   Threaten no more
   To secure peace is to prepare that you'll hear evermore

Liberty or death, what we so proudly hail
Once you provoke her, rattling of her tail

   So be it
   Threaten no more
   To secure peace is to prepare for war
   So be it
   Settle the score
   Touch me again for the words that you'll hear evermore

Don't tread on me

Through The Never

All that is, was and will be
Universe much too big to see

Time and space never ending
Disturbing thoughts, questions pending
Limitations of human understanding
Too quick to criticize
Obligation to survive
We hunger to be alive

   All that is ever
   Ever was
   Will be ever
   Twisting
   Turning
   Through the never

In the dark, see past our eyes
Pursuit of truth no matter where it is

Gazing up to the breeze of the heavens
On a quest, meaning, reason
Came to be, how it begun
All alone in the family of the sun
Curiosity teasing everyone
On our home, third stone from the sun

  All that is, ever
  Ever was
  Will be ever
  Twisting
  Turning
  Through the never

On through the never
We must go
On through the never
Out to the
Edge of forever
We must go
On through the never
Then never comes

  All that is, ever
  Ever was
  Will be ever
  Who we are
  Ask forever
  Twisting
  Turning
  Through the never

  Never

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

Must 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 matters

  Never cared for what they do
  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

Of Wolf And Man

Off through the new day's mist I run
Out from the new day's mist I have come
I hunt
Therefore I am
Harvest the land
Taking of the fallen lamb

Off through the new day's mist I run
Out from the new day's mist I have come
We shift
Pulsing with the earth
Company we keep
Roaming the land while you sleep

   Shape shift    Nose to the wind
   Shape shift    Feeling i've been
   Move swift     All senses clean
   Earth's gift   Back to the meaning of life

Bright is the moon high in starlight
Chill in the air cold as steel tonight
We shift
Call of the wild
Fear in your eyes
Its later than you realized

   Shape shift   Nose to the wind
   Shape shift   Feeling i've been
   Move swift    All senses clean
   Earth's gift
   Back to the meaning of wolf and man

The God That Failed

Pride you took
Pride you feel
Pride that you felt when you'd kneel

Not the word
Not the love
Not what you thought from above
It feeds
It grows
It clouds all that you will know
Deceit
Deceive
Decide just what you believe

 I see faith in your eyes
 Never you hear the discouraging lies
 I hear faith in your cries
 Broken is the promise, betrayal
 The healing hand held back by the deepened nail
 Follow the god that failed

Find your peace
Find your say
Find the smooth road on your way

Trust you gave
A child to save
Left you cold and him in grave

 It feeds
 It grows
 It clouds all that you will know
 Deceit
 Deceive
 Decide just what you believe

   I see faith in your eyes
   Never you fear the discouraging lies
   I hear faith in your cries
   Broken is the promise, betrayal
   The healing hand held back by the deepened nail
   Follow the god that failed

Pride you took
Pride you feel
Pride that you felt when you'd kneel

Trust you gave
A child to save
Left you cold and him in grave

     I see faith in your eyes
     Never you fear the discouraging lies
     I hear faith in your cries
     Broken is the promise, betrayal
     The healing hand held back by the deepened nail

     Follow the god that failed

My Friend Misery

You just stood there screaming
Fearing no one was listening to you
They say the empty can rattles the most
The sound of your own voice must soothe you
Hearing only what you want to hear
And knowing only what you've heard
You    you're smothered in tragedy
You're out to save the world

   Misery
   You insist that the weight of the world
   Should be on your shoulders
   Misery
   There's no more to life than what you see
   My friend of misery

You still stood there screaming
No one caring about these words you tell
My friend before your voice is gone
One man's fun is another man's hell
These times are sent to try men's souls
But something's wrong with all you see
You   you'll take it on all yourself
Remember, misery love's company


  Misery
  You insist that the weight of the world
  Should be on your shoulders
  Misery
  There's much more to life than what you see
  My friend of misery

You just stood there creaming
My friend of misery


The Struggle Within

Reaching out for something you've got to feel
While clutching to what you had thought was real

Kicking at a dead horse pleases you
No way of showing your gratitude
So many things you don't want to do
What is it? What have you got to lose

What the hell
What is it? What have you got to lose
Hypocrite
Boredom sets into the boring mind

  Struggle within  it suits you fine
  Struggle within  your ruin
  Struggle within  you seal your own coffin
  Struggle within  the struggling within

Home is not a home it becomes a hell
Turning it into your prison cell
Advantages are taken, not handed out
While you struggle inside your hell

Reaching out
Grabbing for something you've got to feel
Closing in
The pressure upon you is so unreal

   Struggle within   it suits you fine
   Struggle within   your ruin
   Struggle within   you seal your own coffin
   Struggle within   the struggling within

Reaching out for something you've got to feel
While clutching to what you had thought was real
What the hell

What is it you think you're gonna find
Hypocrite
Boredom sets into the boring mind

  Struggle within   it suits you fine
  Struggle within   your ruin
  Struggle within   you seal your own coffin
  Struggle within   the struggling within






Battery

Lashing out the action, returning the action
Weak are ripped and torn away
Hypnotizing power, crushin all that cower
Battery is here to stay

  Smashing through the boundaries
  Lunacy has found me
  Cannot stop the battery

  Pounding out aggression
  Turning into obsession
  Cannot kill the battery

  Cannot kill the family
  Battery is found me

  Battery

Crushing all decievers, mashing non-believers
Never ending potency
Hungry violence seeker, feeding off the weaker
Breeding on insanity

  Smashing through the boundaries
  Lunacy has found me
  Cannot stop the battery
  Pounding out aggression
  Turns into obsession
  Cannot stop the battery

  Cannot kill the family
  Battery is found in me

  Battery

Circle of destruction, hammer comes crushing
Powerhouse of energy
Whipping up a fury, dominating flurry
We create the battery

  Smashing through the boundaries
  Lunacy has found me
  Cannot stop the battery
  Pounding out aggression
  Turns into obsession
  Cannot kill the battery

  Cannot kill the family
  Battery is found in me

  Battery

Masters Of Puppets

End of passion play, crumbling away
I'm your source of self-destruction
Veins that pump with fear, sucking darkest clear
Leading on your deaths' construction
Taste me you will see
More is all you need
You're dedicated to
Now i'm killing you

 Come crawling faster
 Obey your master
 Your life burns faster
 Obey your master
           Master


Master of puppets i'm pulling your strings
Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me, you can't see a thing
Just call my name, 'cause i'll hear you scream
Master
Master
Just call my name, 'cause i'll hear you scream
Master
Master

Needlework the way, never you betray
Life of death becoming clearer
Pain monopoly, ritual misery
Chop your breakfast on a mirror
Taste me you will see
More is all you need
You're dedicated to
How i'm killing you

  Come crawling faster
  Obey your master
  Your life burns faster
  Obey your master

Master, master, where's the dreams that i've been
 After?
Master, master, you promised only life
Laughter, laughter, all I hear or see is laughter
Laughter, laughter, laughing at my cries


Hell is worth all that, natural habitat
Just a rhyme without a reason
Neverending maze, drift on numbered days
Now your life is out of season
I will occupy
I will help you die
I will run through you
Now I rule you too

 Coming crawling faster
 Obey your master
 Your life burns faster
 Obey your master
           Master

Master of puppets i'm pulling your strings
Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me, you can't see a thing

The Thing That Should Not be

Messenger of fear in sight
Dark description kills the light

Hybrid children watch the sea
Pray for father, roaming free

   Fearless wretch
   Insanity
   He watches
   Lurking beneath the sea
   Great old one
   Forbidden site
   He searches
   Hunter of the shadows is rising
                            Immortal
                            In madness you dwell

Crawling chaos, underground
Cult has summoned, twisted sound

Out from ruins once possessed
Fallen city, living death

  Fearless wretch
  Insanity
  He watches
  Lurking beneath the sea
  Timeless sleep
  Has been upset
  He awakens
  Hunter of the shadows is rising
                           Immortal
                           In madness you dwell

Not dead which eternal lie
Stranger eons death may be

Drain you of your sanity
Face the thing that should not be

   Fearless wretch
   Insanity
   He watches
   Lurking beneath the sea
   Great old me
   Forbidden site
   He searches
   Hunter of the shadows is rising
                            Immortal
                            In madness you dwell

Welcome Home (Sanitarium)

Welcome to where time stands still
No one leaves and no one will
Moon is full, never seems to change
Just labeled mentally deranged
Dream the same thing every night
I see our freedom in my sight
No locked doors, no windows barred
No things to make my brain seem scarred

Sleep my friend and you will see
That dream is my reality
They keep me locked up in this cage
Can't they see it's why my brain says rage

 Sanitarium, leave me be
 Sanitarium, just leave me alone

Build my fear of what's out there
And cannot breathe the open air
Whisper things into my brain
Assuring me that i'm insane
They think our heads are in their hands
But violent use brings violent plans
Keep him tied, it makes him well
He's getting better, can't you tell?

No more can they keep us in
Listen, damn it, we will win
They see it right, they see it well
But they think this saves us from our hell

  Sanitarium, leave me be
  Sanitarium, just leave me alone
  Sanitarium, just leave me alone

Fear of living on
Natives getting restless now
Mutiny in the air
Got some death to do
Mirror stares back hard
Kill, it's such a friendly word
Seems the only way
For reaching out again


Disposable Heroes

Bodies fill the fields I see, hungry heroes end
No one to play soldiers now, no one to pretend
Running blind through killing fields, bred to kill
  Them all
Victim of what said should be
A servant 'til I fall

  Soldier boy, made of clay
  Now an empty shell
  Twenty one, only son
  But he serves us well
  Bred to kill, not to care
  Do just as we say
  Finished here, greetings death
  He's yours to take away

  Back to the front
  You will do what I say, when I say
  Back to the front
  You will die when I say, you must die
  Back to the front
  You coward
  You servant
  You blindman

Barking of machinegun fire, does nothing to me now
Sounding of the clock that ticks, get used to it
  Somehow
More a man, more stripes you bare, glory seeker
  Trends
Bodies fill the fields I see
The slaughter never ends

  Soldier boy, made of clay
  Now an empty shell
  Twenty one, only son
  But he served us well
  Bred to kill, not to care
  Do just as we say
  Finished here, greetings death
  He's yours to take away

  Back to the front
  You will do what I say, when I say
  Back to the front
  You will die when I say, you must die
  Back to the front
  You coward
  You servant
  You blindman

Back to the front

Leper Messiah

Spineless from the started, sucked into the part
Circus comes to town, you play the lead clown
Please, please
Spreading his disease, living by his story
Knees, knees
Falling to your knees, suffer for his glory
You will

   Time for lust, time for lie
   Time to kiss your life goodbye
   Send me money, send me green
   Heaven you will meet
   Make a contribution
   And you'll get a better seat
   Bow to leper messiah

Marvel at his tricks, need your sunday fix
Blind devotion came, rotting your brain
Chain, chain
Join the endless chain, taken by his glamour
Fame, fame
Infection is the game, stinking drunk with power
We see

   Time for lust, time for lie
   Time to kiss your life goodbye
   Send me money, send me green
   Heaven you will meet
   Make a contribution
   And you'll get the better seat
   Bow to leper messiah

Witchery, weakening
Sees the sheep are gathering
Set the trap, hypnotize
Now you follow

   Time for lust, time for lie
   Time to kiss your life goodbye
   Send me money, send me green
   Heaven you will meet
   Make a contribution
   And you'll get the better seat

Lie

Damage

Dealing out the agony within
Charging hard and no one's gonna give in
Living on your knees, conformity
Or dying on your feet for honesty
Inbred, our bodies work as one
Bloody, but never cry submission
Following our instinct not a trend
Go against the grain until the end

  Blood will follow blood
  Dying time is here
  Damage incorporated

Slamming through, don't fuck with razorback
Stepping out? you'll feel our hell on your back
Blood follows blood and we make sure
Life ain't for you and we're the cure
Honesty is my only excuse
Try to rob us of it, but it's no use
Steamroller action crushing all
Victim is your name and you shall fall

  Blood will follow blood
  Dying time is here
  Damage incorporated

We chew and spit you out
We laugh, you scream and shout
All flee, with fear you run
You'll know just where we come from

   Damage incorporated

Damage jackals ripping right through you
Sight and smell of this, it gets me goin'
Know just how to get just what we want
Tear it from your soul in nightly hunt
Fuck it all and fucking no regrets
Never happy endings on these dark sets
All's fair for damage inc, you see
Step a little closer if you please

    Blood will follow blood
    Dying time is here
    Damage incorporated


  Fight Fire With Fire

Do unto others as they have done to you
But what the hell is this world coming to?

Blow the universe into nothingness
Nuclear warfare shall lay as us to rest

 Fight fire with fire
 Ending is near
 Fight fire with fire
 Bursting with fear

We all shall die

Time is like a fuse.short and burning fast
Armageddon is here.like said in the past

 Fight fire with fire
 Ending near
 Fight fire with fire
 Bursting with fear

Soon to fill our lungs the hot winds of death
The gods are laughing, so take your last breath

 Fight fire with fire
 Ending is near
 Fight fire with fire
 Bursting with fear

 Fire with fire
 (repeat)

Ride The Lightning

Guilty as charged
But damn it, it ain't right
There is someone else controlling me

Death is in the air
Strapped in the electric chair
This can't be the happening to me

Who made you God to say
"I'll take your life from you!"

 Flash before my eyes
 Now it's time to die
 Burning in my brain
 I can feel the flame

Wait for the sign
To flick the switch of death
It's beginning of the end

Sweat, chilling cold
As I watch death unfold
Consciousness is my only friend

My fingers grip with fear
What am I doing here?

 Flash before my eyes
 Now it's time to die
 Burning in my brain
 I can feel the flame

Someone help me
Oh please God help me
They are trying to take it all away
I don't want to die

Time moving slow
The minutes seem like hours
The final curtain call I see

How true is this?
Just get it over with
If this is true, just let it be

Wakened by horrid scream
Freed from this frightening dream

 Flash before my eyes
 Now it's time to die
 Burning in my brain
 I can feel the flame

For Whom The Bell Tolls

Make his fight on the hill in the early day
Constant chill deep inside
Shouting gun, on they run through the endless grey
On they fight, for they are right, yes, but who's to say?
For a hill man would kill, why? They do not know
Suffered wounds test their pride
Men of five, still alive through the raging glow
Gone insane from the pain that they surely know

 For whom the bell tolls
 Time marches on
 For whom the bell tolls

Take a look to the sky just before you die
It is the last time he will
Blackened roar masive roar fills the crumbling sky
Shattered goal fills his soul with a ruthless cry
Stranger now, are his eyes, to this misery
He hears the silence so loud
Crack of dawn, all his gone except the will to be
Now they see what will be, blinded eyes to see

 For whom the bell tolls
 Time marches on
 For whom the bell tolls

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 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 filling 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 too 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 goodbye

Trapped Under Ice

I don't know how to live through this hell
Woken up, I'm still locked in this shell
Frozen soul, frozen down to the core
Break the ice, I can't take anymore

 Freezing
 Can't move at all
 Screaming
 Can't hear my call
 I am dying to live
 Cry out
 I'm trapped under ice

Crystallized, as I lay here and rest
Eyes of glass stare directly at death
>From deep sleep I have broken away
No one knows, no one hears what I say

 Freezing
 Can't move at all
 Screaming
 Can't hear my call
 I am dying to live
 Cry out
 I'm trapped under ice

Scream from my soul
Fate, mystified
Hell, forever more

No release from my cryonic state
What is this? I've been stricken by fate
Wrapped up tight, cannot move, can't break free
Hand of doom has a tight grip on me

 Freezing
 Can't move at all
 Screaming
 Can't hear my call
 I am dying to live
 Cry out
 I'm trapped under ice

Escape

Feel no pain, but my life ain't easy
I know i'm my best friend
No one cares, but i'm so much stronger
I'll fight until the end
To escape from the true false world
Undamaged destiny
Can't get caught in the endless circle
Ring of stupidity

 Out for my own, out to be free
 One with my mind, they just can't see
 No need to hear things that they say
 Life is for my own to live my own way

Rape my mind and destroy my feelings
Don't tell me what to do
I don't care now, 'cause i'm on my side
And I can see through
Freed my brain with your so called standards
Who says that I ain't right
Break away from your common fashion
See through your blurry sight

 Out for my own, out to be free
 One with my mind, they just can't see
 No need to hear things that they say
 Life is for my own to live my own way

See them try to bring the hammer down
No damn chains can hold me to the ground

  Life is for my own to live my own way
     (repeat)

Creeping Death

Die by my hand
I creep across the land
Killing first born man
Die by hand
I creep across the land
Killing first born man
I
Rule the midnite air the destroyer
Born
I shall soon be there, deadly mass
I
Creep the steps and floor final darkness
Blood
Lambs blood painted door, I shall pass

 So let it be written
 So let it be done
 I'm sent here by the chosen one
 So let it be written
 So let it be done

           WELCOME HOME (SANITARIUM)

Welcome To Where Time Stands Still.
No One Lives And No One Will.
Moon Is Full, Never Seems To Change.
Just Labeled Mentally Deranged.
Dream The Same Thing Every Night.
I See Our Freedom In My Sight.
No Locked Doors, No Windows Barred.
No Things To Make My Brain Seems Scarred.

Sleep My Friend And You Will See,
That Dream Is My Reality.
They Keep Me Locked Up In This Cage.
Can't They See It's Why My Brain Says Rage?

Build My Fear Of What's Out There.
And Cannot Breathe The Open Air.
Whisper Things Into My Brain,
Assuring Me That I'm Insane.
They Think Our Heads Are In Their Hands,
But Violent Use Brings Violent Plans.
Keep Him Tied, It Makes Him Well.
He's Getting Better, Can't You Tell?

No More Can They Keep Us In.
Listen Damn It We Will Win.
They See It Right, They See It Well,
But They Think This Saves Us From Our Hell.

    Sanitarium, Leave Me Be.

For Reaching Out Again.

   I'll Label You
   So I Dub Thee Unforgiven
   METALLICA "Metallica" 91 (5)

       WHEREVER I MAY ROAM

...And The Road Becomes My Bride
And The Road Becomes My Bride
I Have Stripped Of All But Pride
So In Her I Do Confide
And She Keeps Me Satisfied
Gives Me All I Need

And With Dust Is Throat I Crave
Only Knowledge Will I Save
To The Game You Stay A Slave
Rover, Wanderer, Nomad, Vagabond
Call Me What You Will

But I'll Take My Time Anywhere
Free To Speak My Mind Anywhere
And I'll Redefine Anywhere
Anywhere I Roam
Where I Lay My Head Is Home

...And The Earth Becomes My Throne
And The Earth Becomes My Throne
I Adapt To The Unknown
Under Wandering Stars I've Grown
By Myself But Not Alone
I Ask No One

And My Ties Are Severed Clean
The Less I Have, The More I Gain
Off The Beaten Path I Reign
Rover, Wanderer, Nomad, Vagabond
Call Me What You Will

But I'll Take My Time Anywhere
I'm Free To Speak My Mind Anywhere
And I'll Never Mind Anywhere
Anywhere I Roam
Where I Lay My Head Is Home

But I'll Take My Time Anywhere
I'm Free To Speak My Mind
And I'll Redefine Anywhere
Anywhere I Roam
Where I Lay My Head Is Home

Carved Upon My Stone
My Body Lie, But Still I Roam
Yeah! Yeah!

Wherever I May Roam
Wherever I May Wander

        DON'T TREAD ON ME

   Don't Tread On Me
   Say, Don't Tread On Me

Liberty Or Death, What We So Proudly Hail
Once You Provoke Her, Rattling Of Her Tail
Never Begins It, Never, But Once Engaged...
Never Surrenders, Showing The Fangs Of Rage

   Say, Don't Tread On Me

   So Be It, Threaten No More
   To Secure Peace Is To Prepare For War
   So Be It, Settle The Score
   Touch Me Again For The Words
   That You'll Hear Evermore.

   Don't Tread On Me.

Love It Or Leave It, She With The Deadly Bite
Quick Is The Blue Tongue, Forked As Lightning Strike
Shining With Brightness, Always On Surveillance
The Eyes, They Never Close, Emblem Of Vigilance

   Don't Tread On Me

   So Be It, Threaten No More
   To Secure Peace Is To Prepare For War
   So Be It, Settle The Score
   Touch Me Again For The Words

         THROUGH THE NEVER

All That Is, Was And Will Be
Universe Much Too Big To See
Time And Space Never Ending
Disturbing Thoughts, Questions Pending
Limitation Of Human Understanding
Too Quick To Criticize
Obligation To Survive
We Hunger To Be Alive

    All That Is, Ever, Ever Was, Will Be Ever
    Twisting, Turning Through The Never

In The Dark, See Past Our Eyes
Pursuit Of Truth, No Matter Where It Lies
Gazing Up To The Breeze Of Heavens
On A Quest, Meaning, Reason
Came To Be, How It Begun
All Alone In The Family Of Sun
Curiosity Teasing Everyone
On Our Home, Third Stone From The Sun

    All That Is, Ever, Ever Was, Will Be Ever
    Twisting, Turning Through The Never

On Through The Never We Must Go
On Through The Never Out To The
Edge Of Forever We Must Go
On Through The Never
Then Never Comes

    All That Is, Ever, Ever Was, Will Be Ever
    Twisting, Turning
    Who We Are Ask Forever
    Twisting, Turning Through The Never
    Never.

Trust I Seek And I Find In You
Every Day For Us Something New
Open Mind For Different View

Off Through The New Day's Mist I Run
Out Through The New Day's Mist I Have Come
I Hunt, Therefore I Am
Harvest The Land
Talking Of The Fallen Lamb

Off Through The New Day's Mist I Run
Out Through The New Day's Mist I Have Come
We Shift, Pulsing With The Earth
Company We Keep
Roaming The Land While You Sleep.

    Shape Shift, Nose To The Wind
    Shape Shift, Feeling I've Been
    Move Swift, All Senses Clean
    Earth's Gift, Back To The Meaning Of Life

Bright Is The Moon, High Is Starlight
Chill The Air, Cold As Steel Tonight
We Shift, Call Of The Wild
Fear Is Your Eyes
It's Later Than You Realized

    Shape Shift, Nose To The Wind
    Shape Shift, Feeling I've Been
    Move Swift, All Senses Clean
    Earth's Gift, Back To The Meaning Of Life

I Feel A Change, Back To A Better Day
The Hair Stands Of The Back Of My Neck
In Wildness Is The Preservation Of The World
So Seek The Wolf In Thyself

    Shape Shift, Nose To The Wind
    Shape Shift, Feeling I've Been
    Move Swift, All Senses Clean

        THE GOD THAT FAILED

Pride You Took, Pride You Feel
Pride That You Felt When You'd Kneel!

Not The Word, Not The Love
Not What You Thoughts From Above

It Feeds, It Grows
It Clouds All That You Will Know
Deceit, Deceive
Decide Just What You Believe

    I See Faith In Your Eyes
    Never You Hear The Discouraging Lies
    I Hear Faith In Your Cries
    Broken Is The Promise, Betrayal
    The Healing Hand Held Back By Deepened Nail
    Follow The God That Failed

Find Your Peace, Find Your Say
Find The Smooth Road On Your Way
Trust You Gave, A Child To Save
Left You Cold And Him In Grave

It Feeds, It Grows
It Clouds All That You Will Know
Deceit, Deceive
Decide Just What You Believe

    I See Faith In Your Eyes
    Never You Hear The Discouraging Lies
    I Hear Faith In Your Cries
    Broken Is The Promise, Betrayal
    The Healing Hand Held Back By Deepened Nail
    Follow The God That Failed

    I See Faith In Your Eyes
    Broken Is The Promise, Betrayal

         MY FRIEND OF MISERY

You Just Stood There Screaming
Fearing No One Was Listening To You
They Say The Empty Can Rattles The Most
The Sound Of Your Own Voice Must Soothe You
Hearing Only What You Want to Hear
And Knowing Only What You've Heard
You, You're Smothered In Tragedy
And You're Out To Save The World

    Misery
    You Insist That The Weight Of The World
    Should Be On Your Shoulders
    Misery
    There's Much More To Life Than What You See
    My Friend Of Misery

You Still Stood There Screaming
No One Caring About These Words You Tell
My Friend, Before Your Voice Is Gone
One Man's Fun Is Another's Hell
These Times Are Sent To Try Men's Souls
But Something's Wrong With All You See
You You'll Take It On All Yourself
Remember, Misery Loves Company

    Misery
    You Insist That The Weight Of The World
    Should Be On Your Shoulders
    Misery
    There's Much More To Life Than What You See
    My Friend Of Misery

You Just Stood There Screaming
My Friend Of Misery.

          ENTER SANDMAN

Say Your Prayers, Little One
Don't Forget, My Son
To Include Everyone

Tuck You In, Warm Within
Keep You Free From Sin
Till The Sandman, He Comes

Sleep With One Eye Open
Gripping Your Pillow Tight

Exit : Light, Enter : Night
Take My Hand
We're Off To Never, Never Land

Something Wrong, Shut The Light
Heavy Thought To Night
And They Aren't Of Snow White

Dreams Of War, Dreams Of Liers
Dreams Of Dragon's Fire
And Of Things That Will Bite

Sleep With One Eye Open
Gripping Your Pillow Tight

Exit : Light, Enter : Night
Take My Hand
We're Off To Never, Never Land

   Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep,
   Pray The Lord My Soul To Keep.
   If I Die Before I Wake,
   Pray The Lord My Soul To Take.

Hush, Little Baby, Don't Say A Word
And Never Mind, That Noise You Heard
It's Just The Beasts Under Your Bed
In Your Closet, In Your Head

Exit : Light. Enter : Night.
Grain Of Sand.
Exit : Light. Enter : Night.
We're Off To Never, Never Land.
Take My Hand.

            Battery
 (Hetfield,Ulrich)

Lashing out the action, returning the reaction
Weak are ripped and torn away
Hypnotizing power, crushing all that cower
Battery is here to stay

 Smashing through the boundaries
 Lunacy has found me
 Cannot stop the Battery
 Pounding out aggression
 Turns into obsession
 Cannot kill the Battery

 Cannot kill the family
 Battery is found me
 Battery

Crushing all deceivers, mashing non-believers
Never ending potency
Hungry violence seeker, feeding off the weaker
Breeding on insanity

 Smashing through the boundaries
 Lunacy has found me
 Cannot stop the Battery
 Pounding out aggression
 Turns into obsession
 Cannot kill the Battery

 Cannot kill the family
 Battery is found me
 Battery

Circle of destruction, hammer comes crushing
Powerhouse of energy
Whipping up a fury, dominating flurry
We create the Battery

 Smashing through the boundaries
 Lunacy has found me
 Cannot stop the Battery
 Pounding out aggression
 Turns into obsession
 Cannot kill the Battery

 Cannot kill the family
 Battery is found me

               Master of Puppets
               (Hetfield, Ulrich, Burton, Hammett)

End of passion play, crumbling away
I'm your score of self-destruction
Veins that pump with fear, sucking darkest clear
Leading on your deaths construction
Taste me you will see
More is all you need
You're dedicated to
How I'm killing you

 Come crawling faster
 Obey your Master
 Your life burns faster
 Obey your Master
           Master

 Master of Puppets I'm pulling your strings
 Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
 Blinded by me, you can't see a thing
 Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream
 Master

 Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream

Needlework the way, never you betray
Life of death becoming clearer
Pain monopoly, ritual misery
Chop your breakfast on a mirror
Taste me you will see
More is all you need
You're dedicated to
How I'm killing you

 Come crawling faster
 Obey your Master
 Your life burns faster
 Obey your Master

Master, Master, where's the dreams that I've been  after?
Master, Master, you promised only lies
Laughter, laughter, all I hear or see is laughter
Laughter, laughter, laughing at my cries




Hell is worth all that, natural habitat
Just a rhyme without a reason
Neverending maze, drift on numbered days
Now your life is out of season
I will occupy
I will help you die
I will run through you
Now I rule you too

 Come crawling faster
 Obey your Master
 Your life burns faster
 Obey your Master

      The Thing That Should not Be
      (Hetfield, Ulrich, Hammett)

Messenger of fear in sight
Dark deception kills the light
Hybrid children watch the sea
Pray for father, roaming free

 Fearless wretch
 Insanity
 He watches
 Lurking beneath the sea
 Great old one
 Forbidden site
 He searches
 Hunter of the shadows is rising
                        Immortal
                        In madness you dwell

Crawling chaos, underground
Cult has summoned, twisted sound
Out from ruins once possessed
Fallen city, living death

 (Chorus)


Now dead which eternal lie
Stranger eons death may be
Drain you of your sanity
Face the thing that should not be


 Fearless wretch
 Insanity
 He watches
 Lurking beneath the sea
 Great old one
 Forbidden site
 He searches
 Hunter of the shadows is rising
                        Immortal
                        In madness you dwell


                Welcome Home
                  (Sanitarium)
         (Hetfield, Ulrich, Hammett)

Welcome to where time stands still
No one leaves and no one will
Moon is full, never seems the change
Just labeled mentally deranged
Dream the same thing every night
I see our freedom in my sight
No locked doors, no window barred
No things to make my brain seem scarred
Sleep my friend and you will see
That dream is my reality
They keep me locked up in this cage
Can't they see it's why my brain says rage

 Sanitarium, leave me be
 Sanitarium, just leave me alone

Build my fears of what's out there
And cannot breathe the open air
Whispering things into my brain
Assuring me that I'm insane
They think our heads are in their hands
But violent use brings violent plans
Keep him tied, it makes him well
He's getting better, can't you tell?
No more can they keep us in
Listen, damn it, we will win
They see it right, they see it well
But they think this saves us from our hell

 Sanitarium, leave me be
 Sanitarium, just leave me alone
   Sanitarium, just leave me alone

Fear of living on
Natives getting restless now
Mutiny in the air
Got some death to do
Mirror stares back hard
Kill, it's such a friendly word
Seems the only way
For reaching out again





               Disposable Heroes
           (Hetfield, Ulrich, Hammett)

Bodies fill the fields I see, hungry heroes end
No one to play soldier now, no one to pretend
Running blind through killing fields, bred to kill
 Them all
Victims of what said should be
A servant `till I fall

 Soldier boy, make of clay
 Now an empty shell
 Twenty one, only son
 But he served us well
 Bred to kill, not to care
 Do just as we say
 Finished here, greetings death
 He's yours to take away
 Back to the front
 You will do what I say, when I say
 Back to the front
 You will die when I say, you must die
 Back to the front
 You coward
 You servant
 You blindman

Barking of machine gun fire, does nothing to me now
Sounding of the clock that ticks, get used to it
somehow
More a man, more stripes on you bare, glory seeker
trends
Bodies fill the fields I see
The slaughter never ends

 Soldier boy, make of clay
 Now an empty shell
 Twenty one, only son
 But he served us well
 Bred to kill, not to care
 Do just as we say
 Finished here, greetings death
 He's yours to take away
 Back to the front
 You will do what I say, when I say
 Back to the front
 You will die when I say, you must die
 Back to the front
 You coward
 You servant
 You blindman

Why am I dying?
Kill, have no fear
Lie life off lying
Hell, hell is here
I was born for dying




Life planned out before my birth, nothing could I  say
Had no change to see myself, molded day by day
Looking back I realize, nothing have I done
Left to die with only friend
Alone I clench my gun

 Soldier boy, make of clay
 Now an empty shell
 Twenty one, only son
 But he served us well
 Bred to kill, not to care
 Do just as we say
 Finished here, greetings death
 He's yours to take away
 Back to the front
 You will do what I say, when I say
 Back to the front
 You will die when I say, you must die
 Back to the front
 You coward
 You servant
 You blindman


           Leper Messiah
         (Hetfield, Ulrich)

Spineless from the start, sucked into the part
Circus comes to town, you play the lead clown
Please, please
Spreading his disease, living by his story
Knees, knees
Falling to your knees, suffer for his glory
You will

 Time for lust, time for lie
 Time to kiss you life goodbye
 Send my money, send me green
 Heaven you will meet
 Make a contribution
 And you'll get a better seat
 Bow to Leper Messiah

Marvel at his tricks, need you sunday fix
Blind devotion came, rotting your brain
Chain, chain
Join to endless chain, taken by his glamour
Fame, fame
Infection in the game, stinking drunk with power
We see

 Time for lust, time for lie
 Time to kiss you life goodbye
 Send my money, send me green
 Heaven you will meet
 Make a contribution
 And you'll get a better seat
 Bow to Leper Messiah




Witchery, weakening
Sees the sheep are gathering
Set the trap, hypnotize
Now you follow
(Chorus)
Lie, lie, lie...

  (Hetfield, Ulrich, Burton, Hammett)

Dealing out the agony within
Gharging hard and no one's gonna give in
Living on your knees, conformity
Or dying on your feet for honesty
Inbred, our bodies work as one
Bloody, but never cry submission
Following our instinct not a trend
Go against the grain until the end

 Blood will follow blood
 Dying time is here

Slamming through, don't fuck with razorback
Stepping out? You'll feel our hell on your back
Blood follows blood and we make sure
Life ain't for you and we're the cure
Honesty is my only excuse
Try to job us of it, but it's no use
Steamroller action crushing all
Victim is your name and you shall fall

We laugh, you scream and shout
All flee with fear you run

              See our mother
              Put to death
              See our mother die
         Smouldering decay
         Take her breath away
         Millions of our years
         In minutes disappears
         Darkening in vain
         Decadence remains
         All is said and done
         Never is the sun
         Never
              Fire
              To begin whipping dance of the dead
              Blackened is the end
              To begin whipping dance of the dead
              Fire
              Is the outcome of hypocrisy

         Truth is an offence
         You silence for your confidence
         Do you hear what I hear?
         Doors are slamming shut
         Limit your imagination, keep you where they must
         Do you feel what I feel?
         Bittering distress
         Who decides what you express?
         Do you take what I take?
         Endurance is the word
         Moving back instead of forward seems to me absurd
              Doesn't matter what you see
              Or into it what you read
              You can do it your own way
              If it's done just how I say
               Independence limited
               Freedom of choice
               Choice is made for you my friend
               Freedom of speech
               Speech is words that they will bend
               Freedom with their exception

         Do you fear what I fear?
         Living properly
         Truths to you are lies to me
         Do you choose what I choose?
         More alternatives
         Energy derives from both the plus and negative
         Do you need what I need?
         Boundaries overthrown
         Look inside, to each his own
         Do you trust what I trust?
         Me, myself and I
         Penetrate the smoke screen, I see through the selfish lie
              Doesn't matter what you see
              Or into it what you read
              You can do it your own way
              If it's done just how I say
               Independence limited
               Freedom of choice
               Choice is made for you my friend
               Freedom of speech
               Speech is words that they will bend
               Freedom with their exception
         Do you know what I know?
         Your money and your wealth
         You silence just to hear yourself
         Do you want what I want?
         Desire not a thing
         I hunger after independence, lengthen freedom's ring
              Doesn't matter what you see
              Or into it what you read
              You can do it your own way
              If it's done just how I say

               Freedom of choice
               Choice is made for you my friend
               Freedom of speech
               Speech is words that they will bend
               Freedom no longer frees you
              Doesn't matter what you see
              Or into it what you read
              You can do it your own way
              If it's done just how I say

                                One


                         (Hetfield, Ulrich)
         I can't remember anything
         Can't tell if this is true or dream
         Deep down inside I feel to scream
         This terrible silence stops me
         Now that the war is through with me
         I'm waking up, I cannot see
         That there's not much left of me
         Nothing is real but pain now
              Hold my breath as I wish for death
              Oh please God, wake me

...And Justice for All


         Back in the womb it's much too real
         In pumps life that I must feel
         But can't look forward to reveal
         Look to the time when I'll live
         Fed through the tube that sticks in me
         Just like a wartime novelty
         Tied to machines that make me be
         Cut this life off from me
              Hold my breath as I wish for death
              Oh please God, wake me
              Now the world is gone I'm just one
              Oh God, help me hold my breath as I wish for death
              Oh please God, help me
         Darkness    imprisoning me
               all that I see
               absolute horror
               I cannot live
               I cannot die
               trapped in myself
               body my holding cell
         Landmine    has taken my sight
               taken my speech
               taken my hearing
               taken my arms
               taken my legs
               taken my soul
               left me with life in hell

                         The Shortest Straw


                         (Hetfield, Ulrich)
         Suspicion is your name
         Your honesty to blame
         Put dignity to shame
         Dishonor
         Witchhunt, modern day
         Determining decay
         The blatant disarray
         Disfigure
         The public eyes' disgrace
         Defying common place
         Unending paper chase
         Unending
         Deafening
         Painstaking
         Reckoning
         This vertigo it doth bring
              Shortest straw
              Challenge liberty
              Downed by law
              Live in infamy
              Rub your raw
              Witchhunt riding through
              Shortest straw
              This shortest straw has been pulled for you
              Pulled for you

         Intruding
         Doubt sunk itself in you
         It's teeth and talons through
         Your living catch-22

         A megalomania

         I've loved, turned to hate
         Trapped far beyond my fate
         I give
         You take
         This life that I forsake
         Been cheated of my youth

              You'll suffer unto me

                     The Frayed Ends Of Sanity


                    (Hetfield, Ulrich, Hammett)
         Never hunger
         Never prosper
         I have fallen prey to failure
         Struggle within
         Triggered again
         Now the candle burns at both ends
         Twisting under schizophrenia
         Falling deep into dementia
              Old habits reappear
              Fighting the fear of fear
              Growing conspiracy
              Everyone's after me
              Frayed ends of sanity
              Hear them calling
              Hear them calling me
         Birth of terror
         Death of much more
         I'm the slave of fear, my captor
         Never warnings
         Spreading its wings
         As I wait for the horror she brings
         Loss of interest, question, wonder
         Waves of fear they pull me under
              Old habits reappear
              Fighting the fear of fear
              Growing conspiracy
              Everyone's after me
              Frayed ends of sanity
              Hear them calling
              Hear them calling me
         Into ruin
         I am sinking
         Hostage of this nameless feeling
         Hell is set free
         Flooded I'll be
         Feel the undertow inside me
         Height, hell, time, haste, terror, tension
         Life, death, want, waste, mass depression
              Old habits reappear
              Fighting the fear of fear
              Growing conspiracy
              Myself is after me
              Frayed ends of sanity
              Hear them calling
              Frayed ends of sanity
              Hear them calling
              Hear them calling me

...And Justice for All



                         To Live Is To Die


                     (Hetfield, Ulrich, Burton)
         When a man lies he murders
          Some part of the world
         These are pale deaths which
          Men miscall their lives
         All this I cannot bear
          To witness any longer
         Cannot the kingdom of salvation
          Take me home

                             Dyers eve


                     (Hetfield, Ulrich Hammett)
         Dear mother
         Dear father
         What is this hell you have put me through
         Believer
         Deceiver
         Day in day out live my life through you
         Pushed onto me what's wrong or right
         Hidden from this thing that they call life
         Dear mother
         Dear father
         Every thought I'd think you'd disapprove
         Curator
         Dictator
         Always censoring my every move
         Children are seen but are not heard
         Tear out everything inspired
              Innocence
              Torn from me without your shelter
              Barred reality
              I'm living blindly
         Dear mother
         Dear father
         Time has frozen still what's left to be
         Hear nothing
         Say nothing
         Cannot face the fact I think for me
         No guarantee, it's life as is
         But damn you for not giving me my chance
         Dear mother
         Dear father
         You've clipped my wings before I learned to fly
         Unspoiled
         Unspoken
         I've outgrown that fucking lullaby
         Same thing I've always heard from you
         Do as I say not as I do
              Innocence
              Torn from me without your shelter
              Barred reality

               Cannot cope without you two
               Shocked at the world that I see
               Innocent victim please rescue me
         Dear mother
         Dear father
         Hidden in your world you've made for me
         I'm seething
         I'm bleeding
         Ripping wounds in me that never heal
         Undying spite I feel for you
         Living out this hell you always knew

              No life till leather
              We are gonna kick some ass tonight
              We got the metal madness
              When our fans start screaming
              It's right, well, all right!

          Refrain:
              When we start the rock
              We never want to stop again
           Chorus:
              Hit the lights!  (3 times)

              We are gonna blow this place away

                           The Four Horseman
                      (Hetfield,Ulrich,Mustaine)

              By the last breath of the fourth, winds flow
              Better raise your ears
              The sound of hooves knock at your door
              It's time to wield the blade
              For now you have got some company

           Chorus:
              The horseman are drawing nearer
              On the leather steeds they ride
              They have come to take your life
              On through the dead of night
              With the four horseman ride
              Or choose your fate is die

              You have been dying since the day
              You were born

              you know it has all been planned
              The quartet of deliverance rides
              A sinner once, a sinner twice
              no need for confession now
              Cause now you have got the fight of your life
           Chorus

                  Time
                  Has taken its toll on you:
                  The lines that crack your face
                  Famine
                  Your body, it has torn through
                  Withered in every place
                  Pestilence
                  For what you have had to endure
                  And what you have put others through
                  Death
                  Deliverance for you for sure
                  There is nothing you can do

              So gather round young warriors now
              And saddle up your steeds
              Killing scores with demon swords
              Now is the death of doers of wrong
              Swing the judgment hammer down
              Safely inside armor, blood, guts and sweat

           Chorus.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                          Motorbreath
                          (Hetfield.)

              Living & dying, laughing & crying
              Once you have seen it, you will never be the same
              Life in the fast lane is just how it seems
              Hard & it is heavy, dirty & mean

           Chorus:
              Motorbreath...
              It's how I live my life
              I can't take it any other way
              Motorbreath...
              The sing of living fast
              It is going to take
              Your breath away

              Don't stop for nothing, it's full speed or nothing
              I am taking down, you know, whatever is in my way
              Getting your kicks as you are shooting the line
              Sending the shivers up & down your spine

           Chorus

              Those people, who tell you not to take chances
              They are all missing on what life is about
              You only live once, so take hold of the chance
              Don't end up like others the same song & dance

           Chorus



------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                            Jump In The Fire
                       (Hetfield,Ulrich,Mustaine)

              Down in the depths of my fiery home
              The summons bell will chime
              Tempting you and all the Earth
              To join our sinful kind
              There is a  job to be done and I'm the one
              You people make me do it
              Now it is time for your fate and I won't hesitate
              To pull you down into this pit

           Chorus:
              So come on, jump in the fire ! (2 times)

              With hell in my eyes and with death in my veins
              The end is closing in
              Feeding on the minds of man
              And from their souls within
              My disciples all shout o search out
              And they  always shall obey
              Follow me now, my child, not the meek or the mild
              But do just as I say

           Chorus

              Jump, be you will or be taken by force
              I'll get you either way
              Trying to keep the hellfire lit
              I am stalking you as prey
              Living your life as me, I am you, you see
              There is part of me in everyone
              So reach down, grab my hand, walk with me through the land
              Come home where you belong

           Chorus



------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                              Whiplash
                          (Hetfield,Ulrich)

              Late at night all systems go
              You have come to see the show
              We do our best, you know
              There is a feeling deep inside
              That drives you fuckin'mad
              A feeling of a hammerhead
              You need it oh so bad

           Chorus:
              Adrenalin starts to flow
              You're trashing all around
              Acting like a maniac whiplash


              Bang your head against the stage
              Like you never did before
              Make it ring, make it bleed
              Make it really sore
              In a frenzied madness
              With your leathers and your spikes
              Head are blobbing around
              It is hot as hell tonight

           Chorus

              Here on stage the Marshall' noise
              Is piercing through your ears
              It kicks your ass, kicks your face
              Exploding feeling nears
              Now is the time to let it rip
              To let it fuckin'loose
              We are gathered here to maim and kill
              Cause this is what we choose

           Chorus

              The show is through the metal is gone
              it is time to hit the road
              Another town, another gig
              Again we will explode
              Hotel rooms and motorways
              Life cut here is raw
              But we will neverstop
              We will never quit
              Cause we are METALLICA

           Chorus

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                            Phantom lord
                     (Hetfield,Ulrich,Mustaine)

              Sound is ripping through your ears
              The defending sound of metal nears
              Your bodies waiting for his whips
              The taste of leather on your lips

           Chorus:
              Near the cry of war
              Louder than before
              With his sword in hand
              To control the land
              Crushing metal strikes
              On this frightening night
              Fall onto your knees
              For the Phantom Lord

              Victims falling under chains
              You hear them crying dying pains
              The first of terrors breaking through
              Now there's nothing you can do.

           Chorus

              The lathered armies have prevailed
              The Phantom Lord has never failed
              Smoke is lifting from the ground
              The rising volume metal sound

              Fall to your knees
              And bow to the Phantom Lord

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                            No Remorse
                        (Hetfield,Ulrich)

              No mercy for what we are doing
              No thought to even what we have done
              We don't need to feel the sorrow
              No remorse for the helpless one

           Chorus:

              War without end
              No remorse, no repent
              We don't care what it meant
              Another day, another death
              Another sorrow, another breath

              Blood feeds the war machine
              As it eats its way across the land
              We don't need to feel the sorrow
              No remorse is the one command

           Chorus

              Only the strong survive
              No will to save the weaker race
              We are ready to kill all comers
              Like a loaded gun right at your face

           Chorus

                  Attack
                  Bullet are flying
                  People are  dying
                  With madness surrounding all hell's breaking loose
                 Soldiers are haunting
                 Bodies are mounting
                 Cannons are shouting to take their abuse
                  With war machine's going
                  Blood starts to flowing
                  No mercy given to anyone here
                 The furious fighting
                 Swords are like lightning
                  It all becomes fighting
                  You know, death is near

                    No Remorse !

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                          Seek & Destroy
                        (Hetfield,Ulrich)

                  We are scanning the scene
                  In the city tonight
                  We are looking for you
                  To start up a fight
                  There is an evil feeling
                  In our brains
                  But it is nothing new
                  You know, it drives us insane

               Chorus
                  Running
                  On our way
                  Hiding...
                  You will pay
                  Dying
                  One thousand deaths
                    Searching...
                      Seek & Destroy

                  There is no escape
                  And that is for sure
                  This is the end
                  We won't take anymore
                  Say goodbye
                  To the world you live in
                  You have always been taking
                  But now you're giving

               Chorus

                  Our brains are on fire
                  With the feeling to kill
                  And it will not go away
                  Until our dreams are fulfilled
                  There is only one thing
                  On our minds
                  Don't try running away
                  Cause you're the one we will find

               Chorus

              Blow the universe into nothingness
              Nuclear warfare shall lay us to rest

                 Fight fire with fire
                 Ending is near
                 Fight fire with fire
                 Bursting with fear

              Soon to fill our lungs the hot winds of death
              The gods are laughing, so take your last breath

                   (Hetfield,Ulrich,Burton,Mustaine)

              Guilty as charged
              But damn it, it ain't right
              There's someone else controlling me

              Death in the air
              Strapped in the electric chair
              This can't be happening to me

              Who made You god to say
              "I'll take your life from You !!"

                 Flash before my eyes
                 Now it's time to die
                 Burning in my brain
                 I can feel the flame

              Wait for the sign
              To flick the switch of death
              It's the beginning of the end

              Sweat, chilling cold
              As I watch death unfold
              Consciousness is my only friend

              My fingers grip with fear
              What am I doing here ?

                 Flash before my eyes
                 Now it's time to die
                 Burning in my brain
                 I can feel the flame

              Someone help me
              Oh please god help me
              They are trying to take it all away
              I don't want to die !

              Time moving slow
              The minutes seem like hours
              The final curtain call I see

              How true is this ?
              Just get, it over with
              If this is true, just let it be.

              Wakened by horrid scream
              Freed from this frightening dream

                 Flash before my eyes
                 Now it's time to die
                 Burning in my brain
                 I can feel the flame

                   For Whom The Bell Tolls
                  (Hetfield,Ulrich,Burton )

              Make his fight on the hill in the early day
              Constant chill deep inside
              Shouting gun, on they run through the endless grey
              On the fight, for they are right, yes, but who's to stay ?
              For a hill men would kill why ? they do not know
              Stiffened wounds test their pride
              Men of five still alive through the raging glow
              Gone insane from the pain that they surely know

                 For whom the bell tolls
                 Time marches on
                 For whom the bell tolls

              Take a look to the sky just before you die
              IT is the last time he will
              Blackened roar massive roar fill the crumbling sky
              Shattered goal fills he soul with a ruthless cry
              Stranger now, are his eyes, to the mystery
              He hears the silence so loud
              Crack of dawn, all is gone except the will to be
              Now they see what will be, blinded eyes to see

                  For whom the bell tolls
                  Time marches on
                  For whom the bell tolls


------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                            Fade To Black
                  (Hetfield,Ulrich,Burton,Hammett)

              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 not what they used to be
              Missing one inside of me
              Deathly lost, this can't be real
              Can't stand this hell I feel
              Emptiness is filling me
              To the point of agony
              Growling darkness taking dawn
              I was me, but now he's gone

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

              Yesterday seems as through it never existed
              Death greets me warm, now I will just say good bye...


------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                          Trapped Under Ice
                      (Hetfield,Ulrich,Hammett)

              I don't know how to live through this hell
              Woken up. I'm still locked in this shell
              Frozen soul, frozen down to the core
              Break the ice. I can't take anymore

                 Freezing
                 Can't move at all
                 Screaming
                 Can't hear my call
                 I'm dying to live
                 Cry out
                 I'm trapped under ice

              Crystallized, as I lay here and rest
              Eyes of glass stare directly at death
              From deep sleep I have broken away
              No one knows, no one hears what I say

                 Freezing
                 Can't move at all
                 Screaming
                 Can't hear my call
                 I'm dying to live
                 Cry out
                 I'm trapped under ice

              Scream, from my soul
              Fate, mystified
              Hell, forever more

              No release from my cryonic state
              What is this? I've been stricken by fate
              Wrapped up tight, can not move, can't break free
              Hand of doom has a tight grip on me

                 Freezing
                 Can't move at all
                 Screaming
                 Can't hear my call
                 I'm dying to live
                 Cry out
                 I'm trapped under ice



------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                Escape
                      (Hetfield,Ulrich,Hammett)

              Feel no pain, but my life ain't easy
              I know I'm my best friend
              No one cares, but I'm so much stronger
              I'll fight until the end
              To escape from the true false world
              Undamaged destiny
              Can't get caught in the endless circle
              Ring of stupidity

                 Out for my own, out to be free
                 One with my mind, they just can't see
                 No need to hear things that they say
                 Life is from my own to live my own way

              Rape my mind and destroy my feelings
              Don't tell me what to do
              I don't care now, cause I'm on my side
              And I can see through you
              Feed my brain with your so called standards
              Who says that I ain't right
              Break away from your common fashion
              See through your blurry sight
                 Out for my own, out to be free
                 One with my mind, they just can't see
                 No need to hear things that they say
                 Life is from my own to live my own way

              See them try to bring the hammer down
              No damn chains can hold me to the ground

                 Life's for my own to live my own way...
                                (Repeat)

                 Lunacy has found me

              Pain monopoly, ritual misery
              Chop your breakfast on a mirror
              Taste me you will see
              More is all you need
              You're dedicated to
              How I'm killing you

                 Come crawling faster
                 Obey your Master
                 Your life burns faster
                 Obey your Master
                           Master
                 Master of puppets I'm pulling your strings
                 Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
                 Blinded by me, you can't see a thing
                 Just call my name,'cause I'll hear you scream
                 Master

                 Master

              Master, Master, Where is the dreams that I've been
                After ?
              Master, Master, You promised only lies

              Laughter, laughter, all I hear or see is laughter
              Laughter, laughter, laughing at my cries
              Hell is worth all that, natural habitat
              Just a rhyme without a reason
              Neverending maze, drift on numbered days
              Now your life is out of season
              I will occupy
              I will help you die
              I will run through you
              Now I rule you too

                 Come crawling faster
                 Obey your Master
                 Your life burns faster
                 Obey your Master
                           Master
                 Master of puppets I'm pulling your strings
                 Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
                 Blinded by me, you can't see a thing
                 Just call my name,'cause I'll hear you scream
                 Master
                 Master

              Messenger of fear in sight
              Dark deception kills the light
              Hybrid children watch the sea
              Pray for father, roaming free

                 Fearless wretch
                 Insanity
                 He watches
                 Lurking beneath the sea
                 Great old one

                                          immortal

                            Welcome Home
                            (Sanitarium)
                     (Hetfield,Ulrich,Hammett)

              Welcome to where time stands still
              No one leaves and no one will
              Moon is full, never seems to change
              Just labeled mentally deranged
              Dream the same thing every night
              I see our freedom in my sight
              No locked doors, no windows barred
              No things to make my brain seem scarred
              Sleep my friend and you will see
              That dream is my reality
              They keep me locked up in this cage
              Can't they see it why my brain says rage

                 Sanitarium, leave me be
                 Sanitarium, just leave me alone

              Build my fear of what's out there
              And cannot breathe the open air
              Whisper things into my brain
              Assuring me that I'm insane
              They think our heads are in their hands
              But violent use brings violent plans
              Keep him tied, it makes him well
              He's getting better, can't you tell ?


              No more can they keep us in
              Listen, damn it, We will win
              They see it right. They see it well
              But they think this saves us from our hell

                 Sanitarium, leave me be
                 Sanitarium, just leave me alone
                 Sanitarium, just leave me alone

              Fear of living on
              Natives getting restless now
              Mutiny in the air
              Got some death to do
              Mirror stares back hard
              Kill, it's such a friendly word
              Seems the only way
              For reaching out again.

                          Disposable Heroes
                      (Hetfield,Ulrich,Hammett)

              Bodies fill the fields I see, hungry heroes end
              No one to play soldier now, no one to pretend
              Running blind through killing fields, bred to kill them all
              Victim of what said should be
              A servant 'til I fall

                 Soldier boy, made of clay
                 Now an empty shell
                 Twenty one, only son
                 But he served us well
                 Bred to kill, not to care
                 Do just as we say
                 Finished here, greetings death
                 He's yours to take away

                 Back to the front
                 You will do what I say, when I say
                 Back to the front
                 You will die when I say, you must die
                 Back to the front
                 You coward
                 You servant
                 You blindman

              Barking of machinegun fire, does nothing to me now
              Sounding of the clock that ticks, get used to it somehow
              More a man, more stripes you bare, glory seeker trends
              Bodies fill the fields I see
              The slaughter never ends

                 Soldier boy, made of clay
                 Now an empty shell
                 Twenty one, only son
                 But he served us well
                 Bred to kill, not to care
                 Do just as we say
                 Finished here, greetings death
                 He's yours to take away

                 Back to the front
                 You will do what I say, when I say
                 Back to the front
                 You will die when I say, you must die
                 Back to the front
                 You coward
                 You servant
                 You blindman

              Why, am I dying ?
              Kill, have no fear
              Lie, live off lying
              Hell, hell is here

              I was born for dying

              Life planned out before my birth, nothing could I say
              Had no chance to see myself, moulded day by day
              Looking back I realize, nothing have I done
              Left to die with only friend
              Alone I clench my gun

                 Soldier boy, made of clay
                 Now an empty shell
                 Twenty one, only son
                 But he served us well
                 Bred to kill, not to care
                 Do just as we say
                 Finished here, greetings death
                 He's yours to take away

                 Back to the front
                 You will do what I say, when I say
                 Back to the front
                 You will die when I say, you must die
                 Back to the front
                 You coward
                 You servant
                 You blindman

              Back to the front.

                             Leper Messiah
                           (Hetfield,Ulrich)

              Spineless from the start, sucked into the part
              Circus comes to town, you play the lead clown
              Please, please
              Spreading his disease, living by his story
              Knees, knees
              Falling to your knees, suffer for his glory
              You will

                 Time for lust, time for lie
                 Time to kiss your life goodbye
                 Send me money, send me green
                 Heaven you will meet
                 Make a contribution
                 And you'll get the better seat
                 Bow to leper messiah

              Marvel at his tricks, need your sunday fix
              Blind devotion came, rotting your brain
              Chain, chain
              Join the endless chain, taken by his glamour
              Fame, fame
              Infection is the game, stinking drunk with power
              We see

                 Time for lust, time for lie
                 Time to kiss your life goodbye
                 Send me money, send me green
                 Heaven you will meet
                 Make a contribution
                 And you'll get the better seat
                 Bow to leper messiah

              Witchery, weakening
              Sees the sheep are gathering
              Set the trap, hypnotize
              Now you follow

                 Time for lust, time for lie
                 Time to kiss your life goodbye
                 Send me money, send me green
                 Heaven you will meet
                 Make a contribution
                 And you'll get the better seat

                 Lie.

              Honesty is my only excuse

              Steamroller action crushing all
              Victim is your name and you shall fall

                 Blood will follow blood
                 Dying time is here
                 Damage incorporated

              Fuck it all and endings on these dark sets
              All's fair for damage inc. you see
              Step a little closer if you pease

                 Blood will follow blood

             Blackened is the end
             Winter it will send
             Throwing all you see
             Into obscurity

             Death of mother Earth

             Evolution's end
             Never will it mend

                  Fire

                  Blackened is the end
                  To begin whipping dance of the dead

             Blistering of Earth
             Terminate its worth
             Deadly nicotine
             Kills what might have been

             Callous frigid chill
             Nothing left to kill
             Never seen before
             Breathing nevermore

             Never

                  Fire
                  To begin whipping dance of the dead

             Millions of our years
             In minutes disappears

             Darkening in vain
             Decadence remains

             Never

                  Fire

                  Blackened is the end
                  To begin whipping dance of the dead
                  Color our world blackened

                  Fire
                  Is the outcome of hypocrisy
                  Darkest potency

             Hear them stalking
             Soon you'll please their appetite
             They devour
             Hammer of justice crushes you
             Overpower

             Rolls of red tape seal your lips

                       3. EYE OF THE BEHOLDER
                    (Hetfield , Ulrich , Hammett )

             Do you see what I see ?
             Truth is an offence
             You silence for your confidence

             Do you hear what I hear ?
             Doors are slamming shut
             Limit your imagination , keep you where they must

             Do you feel what I feel ?
             Bittering distress
             Who decides what you express ?

             Do you take what I take ?
             Endurance is the word
             Moving back instead of forward seems to me absurd

                  Doesn't matter what you see
                  Or into it what you read
                  You can do it your own way
                  If it's done just how I say

                       Independence limited
                       Freedom of choice
                       Choice is made for you my friend
                       Freedom of speech
                       Speech is words that they will bend
                       Freedom with their exception

             Do you fear what I fear ?
             Living properly
             Truths to you are lies to me

             Do you choose what I choose ?
             More alternatives
             Energy derives from both the plus and negative

             Do you need what I need ?
             Boundaries overthrown
             Look inside , to each his own

             Do you trust what I trust ?
             Me , myself and I
             Penetrate the smoke screen , I see through the selfish lie

                  Doesn't matter what you see
                  Or into it what you read
                  You can do it your own way
                  If it's done just how I say

                       Independence limited
                       Freedom of choice
                       Choice is made for you my friend
                       Freedom of speech
                       Speech is words that they will bend
                       Freedom with their exception

             Do you know what I know ?
             Your money and your wealth
             You silence just to hear yourself

             Do you want what I want ?
             Desire not a thing
             I hunger after independence , lengthen freedom's ring

                  Doesn't matter what you see
                  Or into it what you read
                  You can do it your own way
                  If it's done just how I say

                       Independence limited
                       Freedom of choice
                       Choice is made for you my friend
                       Freedom of speech
                       Speech is words that they will bend
                       Freedom no longer frees you

                  Doesn't matter what you see
                  Or into it what you read
                  You can do it your own way
                  If it's done just how I say


                       4. ONE
                  (Hetfield , Ulrich)

             I can't remember anything
             Can't tell if this is true or dream
             Deep down inside I feel to scream
             This terrible silence stops me

             Now what the war is through with me
             I'm waking up , I cannot see
             That there's not much left of me
             Nothing is real but pain now

                  Hold my breath as I wish for death
                  Oh please God , wake me

             Back in the womb it's much too real
             In pumps life that I must feel
             But can't look forward to reveal
             Look to the time when I'll live

             Fed through the tube that sticks in me
             Just like a wartime novelty
             Tied to machines that make me be
             Cut this life off from me

                  Hold my breath as I wish for death
                  Oh please God , wake me
                  Now the world is gone , I'm just one
                  Oh God , help me hold my breath as I wish for death
                  Oh , please God help me

             Darkness imprisoning me
                      all that I see
                      absolute horror
                      I cannot live
                      I cannot die
                      trapped in myself
                      body my holding cell

             Landmine has taken my sight
                      taken my speech
                      taken my hearing
                      taken my arms
                      taken my legs
                      taken my soul
                      left me with life in hell


                       5. THE SHORTEST STRAW
                        (Hetfield , Ulrich)

             Suspicion is your name
             Your honesty to blame
             Put dignity to shame
             Dishonor
             Witchhunt , modern day
             Determining decay
             The blatant disarray
             Disfigure
             The public eyes' disgrace
             Defying common place
             Unending paper chase
             Unending

             Deafening
             Painstaking
             Reckoning
             This vertigo it doth bring

                  Shortest straw
                  Challenge liberty
                  Downed by law
                  Live in infamy

                       Shortest straw
                  Shortest straw has been pulled for you

             The accusations fly
             Discrimination , why ?
             Your inner self to die
             Intruding
             Doubt sunk itself in you
             It's teeth and talons through
             Your living catch - 22
             Deluding
             A mass hysteria
             A megalomania
             Reveal dementia
             Reveal

             Secretly
             Silently
             Certainly
             In vertigo you will be

             Behind you , hands are tied
             Your being , ostracized
             Your hell is multiplied
             Upending
             The fallout has begun
             Oppressive damage done
             Your many turned to none
             To nothing
             You're reaching your nadir
             Your will has disappeared
             The lie is crystal clear
             Defending

             Channels red
             One word said
             Blacklisted
             With vertigo make you dead

                  Shortest straw
                  Challenge liberty
                  Downed by law
                  Live in infamy

                       6. HARVESTER OF SORROW
                         (Hetfield , Ulrich)

             My life suffocates
             Planting seeds of hate
             I've loved , turned to hate
             Trapped far beyond my fate

             I give
             You take
             This life that I forsake
             Been cheated of my youth
             You turned this lie to truth

                  Anger
                  Misery
                  You'll suffer unto me
                       Harvester of sorrow
                       Language of the mad
                       Harvester of sorrow

             Pure black looking clear
             My work is done soon here
             Try getting back to me
             Get back which used to be

             Drink up
             Shoot in
             Let the beatings begin
             Distributor of pain
             Your loss becomes my gain

                  Anger
                  Misery
                  You'll suffer unto me
                       Harvester of sorrow
                       Language of the mad
                       Harvester of sorrow

             All have said their prayers
             Invade their nightmares
             To see into my eyes
             You'll find where murder lies

             Infanticide

                  Harvester of sorrow
                  Language of the mad
                  Harvester of sorrow
                  Language of the mad
                  Harvester of sorrow


                       7. THE FRAYED ENDS OF SANITY
                       (Hetfield , Ulrich , Hammett)

             Never hunger
             Never prosper
             I have fallen prey to failure
             Struggle within
             Triggered again
             Now the candle burns at both ends

             Twisting under schizophrenia
             Falling deep into dementia

                  Old habits reappear
                  Fighting the fear of fear
                  Growing conspiracy
                  Everyone's after me
                  Frayed ends of sanity
                  Hear them calling
                  Hear them calling me

             Birth of terror
             Death of much more
             I'm the slave of fear , my captor
             Never warnings
             Spreading its wings
             As I wait for the horror she brings

             Loss of interest , question , wonder
             Waves of fear they pull me under

                  Old habits reappear
                  Fighting the fear of fear
                  Growing conspiracy
                  Everyone's after me
                  Frayed ends of sanity
                  Hear them calling
                  Hear them calling me

             Into ruin
             I am sinking
             Hostage of this nameless feeling
             Hell is set free
             Flooded I'll be
             Feel the undertow inside me

             Height , hell , time , haste , terror , tension
             Life , death , want , waste , mass depression

                  Old habits reappear
                  Fighting the fear of fear
                  Growing conspiracy
                  Myself is after me
                  Frayed ends of sanity
                  Hear them calling
                  Frayed ends of sanity
                  Hear them calling
                  Hear them calling me


                       8. TO LIVE IS TO DIE
                    (Hetfield , Ulrich , Burton)

             When a man lies he murders
                  Some part of the world
             These are the pale deaths which
                  Men miscall their lives
             All this I cannot bear
                  To witness any longer
             Cannot the kingdom of salvation
                  Take me home


                       9. DYERS EVE
                (Hetfield , Ulrich , Hammett)

             Dear mother
             Dear father
             What is this hell you have put me through
             Believer
             Deceiver
             Day in day out live my life through you
             Pushed onto me what's wrong or right
             Hidden from this thing that they call life

             Dear mother
             Dear father
             Every thought I'd think you'd disapprove
             Curator
             Dictator
             Always censoring my every move
             Children are seen but are not heard
             Tear out everything inspired

                  Innocence
                  Torn from me without your shelter
                  Barred reality
                  I'm living blindly

             Dear mother
             Dear father
             Time has frozen still what's left to be
             Hear nothing
             Say nothing
             Cannot face the fact I think for me
             No guarantee , it's life as is
             But damn you for not giving me my chance

             Dear mother
             Dear father
             You've clipped my wings before I learned to fly
             Unspoiled
             Unspoken
             I've outgrown that fucking lullaby
             Same thing I've always heard from you
             Do as I say not as I do

                  Innocence
                  Torn from me without your shelter
                  Barred reality
                  I'm living blindly

                  I'm in hell without you
                  Cannot cope without you two
                  Shocked at the world that I see
                  Innocent victim please rescue me

             Dear mother
             Dear father
             Hidden in your world you've made for me
             I'm seething
             I'm bleeding
             Ripping wounds in me that never heal
             Undying spite I feel for you
             Living out this hell you always knew

                      (Hetfield/Ulrich/Hammett)

                  Say your prayers little one
                  Don't forget my son
                  To include everyone

                  Tuck You in, warm within
                  Keep You free from sin
                  Till the sandman he comes

                  Sleep with one eye open
                  Gripping your pillow tight

                  Exit: light
                  Enter: night
                  Take my hand
                  We're off to never never land

                  Something's wrong, shut the light
                  Heavy thoughts tonight
                  And they aren't of snow white

                  Dreams of war, dreams of liars
                  Dreams of dragon's fire
                  And of things that will bite

                  Sleep with one eye open
                  Gripping your pillow tight

                  Exit: light
                  Enter: night
                  Take my hand
                  We're off to never never land

                  Now I lay me down to sleep
                  Pray the lord my soul to keep
                  If I die before I wake
                  Pray the lord my soul to take

                  Hush little baby, don't say a word
                  And never mind that noise you heard
                  It's just the beasts under your bed
                  In your closet, in your head
                  Exit: light
                  Enter: night
                  Grain of sand

                  Exit: light
                  Enter: night

                  Take my hand
                  We're off to never never land


                            Sad But True
                         (Hetfield/Ulrich)

                  Hey
                  I'm your life
                  I'm the one who take you there
                  Hey
                  I'm your life
                  I'm the one who cares
                  They
                  They betray
                  I'm your only true friend now
                  They
                  They'll betray
                  I'm forever there

                  I'm your dream, make you real
                  I'm your eyes  when you mist 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 my mask
                  You're the one who's blamed
                  Do
                  Do 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 mist 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

                  Hate
                  I'm your hate
                  I'm your hate when you want love
                  Pay
                  Pay the price
                  Pay for nothing fair
                  Hey
                  I'm your life
                  I'm the one who took you there
                  Hey
                  I'm your life
                  And I no longer care

                  I'm your dream, make you real
                  I'm your eyes  when you mist 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


                           Holier Than Thou
                           (Hetfield/Ulrich)

              No more!
              The crap rolls out your mouth again
              Haven't changed, your brain is still gelatin
              Little whispers circle around your head
              Why don't you worry about yourself instead

              Who are you? Where ya been? Where ya from?
              Gossip is burning on the tip of your tongue
              You lie so mush you believe yourself
              Judge not lest ye be judged yourself

              Holier than thou
              You are
              Holier than thou
              You are

              You know not

              Before you judge me take a look at you
              Can't you find something better to do
              Point the finger, slow to understand
              Arrogance and ignorance go hand in hand

              It's not who you are and it's who you know
              Others lives are the basis of your own
              Burn your bridges build them back with wealth
              Judge not lest ye be judged yourself

              Holier than thou
              You are
              Holier than thou
              You are

              You know not


                        The Unforgiven
                   (Hetfield/Ulrich/Hammett)

                  New blood joins this Earth
                  And quickly he's subdued
                  Through constant pained 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 me
                  So I dub thee unforgiven

                  They dedicate their lives
                  To running all if 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 thee unforgiven
                  You labeled me
                  I'll label you
                  So I dub thee unforgiven


                         Wherever I May Roam
                          (Hetfield/Ulrich)

                  ...And the road becomes my bridge
                  I have stripped of all but pride
                  So in her I do confide
                  And she keeps me satisfied
                  Gives me all I need

                  ...And with dust in throat I crave
                  Only knowledge will I save
                  To the game you stay a slave
                  Rover   wanderer
                  Nomad   vagabond
                  Call me what you will

                  But I'll take my time anywhere
                  Free to speak my mind anywhere
                  And I'll redefine anywhere
                  Anywhere I roam
                  Where I lay my head is home

                  ...And the Earth becomes my throne
                  I adapt to the unknown
                  Under wandering stars I've grown
                  By myself but not alone
                  I ask no one

                  ...And my ties are severed clean
                  The less I have the more I gain
                  Off the beaten path I reign
                  Rover   wanderer
                  Nomad   vagabond
                  Call me what you will

                  But I'll take my time anywhere
                  I'm free to speak my mind anywhere
                  And I'll take my find anywhere
                  Anywhere I roam
                  Where I lay my head is home

                  But I'll take my time anywhere
                  Free to speak my mind
                  And I'll take my find anywhere
                  Anywhere I roam
                  Where I lay my head is home

                  Carved upon my stone
                  My body lie, but still I roam

                  Wherever I may roam


                        Don't Tread On Me
                        (Hetfield/Ulrich)

              Liberty or death, what we so proudly hail
              Once you provoke her, ratting of her tail
              Never begins it, never, but once engaged
              Never surrenders, showing the fangs of rage

              Don't tread on me

              So be it
              Threaten no more
              To secure peace is to prepare for war
              So be it
              Settle for score
              Touch me again for the words
              That you'll here evermore

              Don't tread on me

              Love it or leave it, she with the deadly bite
              Quick is the blue tongue, forked as the lightning strike
              Shining with brightness, always on surveillance
              The eyes, they never close, emblem of vigilance

              Don't tread on me

              So be it
              Threaten no more
              To secure peace is to prepare for war
              So be it
              Settle for score
              Touch me again for the words that you'll here evermore

              Don't tread on me

              So be it
              Threaten no more
              To secure peace is to prepare for war

              Liberty or death, what we so proudly hail

              So be it
              Threaten no more
              To secure peace is to prepare for war
              So be it
              Settle for score
              Touch me again for the words that you'll here evermore

              Don't tread on me


                          Through the never
                      (Hetfield/Ulrich/Hammett)

                  All that is, was and will be
                  Universe much too big to see

                  Time and space never ending
                  Disturbing thoughts, question pending
                  Limitations of human understanding
                  Too quick to criticize
                  Obligation to survive
                  We hunger to be alive

                  All that is, ever
                  Ever was
                  Will be ever
                  Twisting
                  Turning
                  Through the never

                  In the dark, see past our eyes
                  Pursuit of truth no mutter where it lies

                  Gazing up to the breeze of the heavens
                  On a quest, meaning, reason
                  Came to be, how it begun
                  All alone in the family of the sun
                  Curiosity teasing everyone
                  On our home, third stone from the sun

                  All that is, ever
                  Ever was
                  Will be ever
                  Twisting
                  Turning
                  Through the never

                  On through the never
                  We must go
                  On through the never
                  Out to the
                  Edge of forever
                  We must go
                  On through the never
                  Then never comes

                  All that is, ever
                  Ever was
                  Will be ever
                  Who we are
                  Twisting
                  Turning
                  Through the never

                  Never


                        Nothing Else Matters
                         (Hetfield/Ulrich)

                  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 care 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 matters

                  Never cared for what they do
                  Never care for what they know

                  Never opened myself this 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 care 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


                          Of Wolf And Man
                     (Hetfield/Ulrich/Hammett)

              Off thought the new day's mist I run
              Out from the new day's mist I have come
              I hunt
              Therefore I am
              Harvest the land
              Taking of the fallen lamb

              Off thought the new day's mist I run
              Out from the new day's mist I have come
              We shift
              Pulsing with the Earth
              Company we keep
              Roaming the land while you sleep

              Shape shift   nose to the wind
              Shape shift   feeling I've been
              More swift   all senses clean
              Earth's gift   back to the meaning of life

              Bright is the moon high in starlight
              Chill in the air cold as steel tonight
              We shift
              Call of the wild
              Fear in your eyes
              It's later than you realized

              Shape shift   nose to the wind
              Shape shift   feeling I've been
              More swift   all senses clean
              Earth's gift   back to the meaning of life

              I feel the change
              Back to a better day
              Hair stands on the back of my neck
              In wildness is the preservation of the world

              So seek the wolf in yourself

              Shape shift   nose to the wind
              Shape shift   feeling I've been
              More swift   all senses clean
              Earth's gift   back to the meaning of wolf and man


                        The God That Failed
                         (Hetfield/Ulrich)

              Pride you took
              Pride you feel
              Pride that you'd knelt

              Not the word
              Not the love
              Not what you thought from above

              It feeds
              It grows
              It clouds all that you will know
              Deceit
              Deceive
              Decide just what you believe

              I see faith in your eyes
              Never you hear the discouraging lies
              I hear faith in your cries
              Broken is the promise, betrayal
              The healing hand held back by the deepened nail

              Follow the God that failed

              Find your peace
              Find your say
              Find the smooth road on your way
              Trust the gave
              A child to save
              Left you cold and him in grave

              It feeds
              It grows
              It clouds all that you will know
              Deceit
              Deceive
              Decide just what you believe

              I see faith in your eyes
              Never you hear the discouraging lies
              I hear faith in your cries
              Broken is the promise, betrayal
              The healing hand held back by the deepened nail

              Follow the God that failed
              I see faith in your eyes
              Broken is the promise, betrayal
              The healing hand held back by the deepened nail

              Follow the God that failed

              Pride you took
              Pride you feel
              Pride that you'd kneel

              Trust the gave
              A child to save
              Left you cold and him in grave

                        My Friend Of Misery
                     (Hetfield/Ulrich/Newsted)

              You just stood there screaming
              Fearing no one was listening to you
              They say the empty can rattles the most
              The sound of your own voice must soothe you
              Hearing only what you want to hear
              And knowing only what you've heard
              You  you're smoothed in tragedy
              You're out to save the world

              Misery
              You insist that the weight of the world
              Should be on your shoulders
              Misery
              There's much more to life than what you see
              My friend of misery

              You still stood there screaming
              No one caring about this words you to tell
              My friend before your voice is gone
              One man's fun in another's hell
              These times are sent to try men's souls
              But something's wrong with all you see
              You  you'll take it on all yourself
              Remember, misery loves company

              Misery
              You insist that the weight of the world
              Should be on your shoulders
              Misery
              There's much more to life than what you see
              My friend of misery
              You just stood there screaming
              My friend of misery


                        The Struggle Within
                         (Hetfield/Ulrich)

              Reaching out for something you've got to feel
              While clutching to what you had thought was real

              Kicking at a dead horse pleases you
              No way of showing your gratitude
              So many things you don't want to do
              What is it? What have you got to lose?

              What the hell?
              What is it you think you're gonna find?
              Hypocrite
              Boredom sets into the boring mind

              Struggle within   it suits you fine
              Struggle within   your ruin
              Struggle within   you see your own coffin
              Struggle within   the struggle within

              Home is not a home it becomes a hell
              Turning it into your prison cell
              Advantages are taken, not handed out
              While you struggle inside your hell

              Reaching out
              Grabbing for something you're got to feel
              Closing in
              The pressure upon you is so unreal

              Struggle within   it suits you fine
              Struggle within   your ruin
              Struggle within   you see your own coffin
              Struggle within   the struggle within

              Reaching out for something you're got to feel
              While clutching to what you had thought was real
              What the hell
              What is it you think you're gonna find
              Hypocrite
              Boredom sets into the boring mind

              Struggle within   it suits you fine
              Struggle within   your ruin
              Struggle within   you see your own coffin
              Struggle within   the struggle within
