Where do I take this pain of mine I run, but it stays right my side So tear me open, pour me out There's things inside that scream and shout And the pain still hates me So hold me, until it sleeps Just like the curse, just like the stray You feed it once, and now it stays So tear me open, but beware There's things inside without a care And the dirt still stains me So wash me, until I'm clean *It grips you, so hold me It stains you, so hold me It hates you, so hold me It holds you, so hold me Until it sleeps** So tell me why you've choosen me Don't want your grip, don't want your greed I'll tear me open, make you gone No more can you hurt anyone And the fear still shakes me So hold me, until it sleeps *--** Repeat I don't want it So tear me open, but beware The things inside without a care And the dirt still stains me So wash me, 'till I'm clean... I'll tear me open, make you gone No longer will you hurt anyone And the fear still shapes me So hold me, until it sleeps... Until it sleeps...
KING NOTHING (Hetfield, Ulrich, Hammett)
Wish I may Wish i might Have this wish tonight Are you satisfied? Dig for gold Dig for fame You dig to make your name Are you pacified? All the wants you waste All the things you've chased *And it all crashes down And you break your crown And you point your finger But there's no one around **Just want one thing Just to play the king But the castle crumbled And you've left with just a name Where's your crown? King nothing*** Hard and cold Bought and sold A heart hard as gold Are you satisfied Wish I may Wish I might You wish your life away Are you pacified All the wants you waste All the things you've chased *--*** Repeat I wish I may I wish I might Have this wish I wish tonight I want the star i want it now I want it all and i don't care how Careful what you wish Careful what you say Careful what you wish You may regret it Careful what you wish You just might get it Then it all crashes down And you break your crown And you point your finger But there's no one around *--*** Repeat ** Repeat
HERO OF THE DAY (Hetfield, Ulrich, Hammett)
Mama they try and break me The window burns to light the way back home A light that warms no matter where they've gone They're off to find the hero of the day But what if they should fall by someone's wicked way Still the window burns Time so slowly turns And someone there is sighing Keepers of the flames Do ya feel your name? Can't you hear your babies crying? Mama they try and break me Still they try and break me 'Scuze me while I tend to how I feel These things return to me that still seem real Now deservingly this easy chair But the rocking stopped by wheels of despair Don't want your aid But the first I've make For years can't hold or feel No, I'm not all me So please excuse me While I tend to how I feel *But now the dreams and waking screams That ever last the night So build the wall, behind the crawl And hide until it's light So can you hear your babies cryin' now? Still the window burns Time so slowly turns And someone there is sighing Keepers of the flames Do ya feel your name? Can't you hear your babies crying? * Repeat Mama they try and break me
AIN'T MY BITCH (Hetfield, Ulrich)
Outta my way, outta my day Outta your mind and into mine Into no one, into no one Into your step but outta time Head strong, what's wrong? I've already heard this song Before... you arrived But now it's time To kiss your ass good-bye *Draggin me down, why you around? So useless It ain't my fall, it ain't my call! It ain't my bitch Down on the sun, down and no fun Down and out, where the hell ya been Damn it all down, damn it unbound Damn it all down to hell again Stand tall, can't fall Never even bend at all Before... you arrived But now it's time To kiss your ass good-bye * Repeat No way but down, why you around? No foolin' It ain't my smile, it ain't my style It ain't my bitch Ain't mine, your kind Your steepin outta time Ain't mine, your kind Your steppin outta time Draggin me down, why you around? No foolin' It ain't my fall, it ain't my call It ain't my... Bitch... you ain't mine
