Trapped Under Ice

(from the album Ride the Lightning)

Back to Metallica Albums

I don't know how to live trough 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 the 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 the 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 the ice
