The Wait

Originally recorded by Killing Joke (from the album Garage Inc.)

Back to Metallica Albums

Motives changing, day to day,

The fire increases, masks decay.

I look at the river, white foam floats down,

The body's poisoned, gotta sit tight.

*

The wait, the wait, the wait, the wait.

*

After wakening, silence grows,

The screams subside, distortion shows.

Mutant thoughts of bad mouthed news,

Is just another birth of distorted views.

*

The wait, the wait, the wait, the wait.

*

The wait, the wait, the wait, the wait.
