Lay beside me, under wicked sky
The black of day, dark of night, we share this paralyze
The door cracks open, but there's no sun shining through
Black hearts scarring darkness still, but there's no sun shining through
No, there's no sun shining through
No, there's no sun shining...

What I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you....

Ohh What I've felt, what I've known
Sick and tired, I stand alone
Could you be there, 'cause I'm the one who waits for you
Or are you unforgiven too?

Lay beside me, this won't hurt I swear
She loves me not, she loves me still, but she'll never love again
She lay beside me, But she'll be there when I'm gone
Black hearts scarring darker steel, yes she'll be there when I'm gone
Yes, she'll be there when I'm gone
Dead sure she'll be there...

What I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you....

What I've felt, what I've known
Sick and tired, I stand alone
Could you be there, 'cause I'm the one who waits for you
Or are you unforgiven too?

Lay beside me, tell me what I've done
The door is closed, so are you're eyes
But now I see the sun, now I see the sun
Yes now I see it...

What I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you....

What I've felt, what I've known
Sick and tired, I stand alone
Could you be there, 'cause I'm the one who waits,
The one who waits for you...

Oh what I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you....

((So I dub thee unforgiven))
Oh, what I've felt

Oh, what I've known

I take this key
((never free))
And I bury it in you
((never me))
Because you're unforgiven too...

Never free
Never me
'Cause you're unforgiven too

Better Than You
(Hetfield-Ulrich)

Hungry and thirsty I wait
Holding the lion's share
Holding the key
Holding me back 'cause I'm striving to be

Better than you
Better than you
Better than you
Better than you

Lock horns I push, and I strive
Some how I feel more alive
Bury the need for it
Bury the seed
Bury me deep when there's no will to be

Better than you
Better than you
Better than you
Better than you

Oh, can't stop this train from rollin'
Oh, nothing brings me down
No, can't stop this train from rollin', no, no, no,
No, no no, no, forever oh no no...

Oh, can't stop this train from rollin'
Oh, you can't take it down
No, can't stop this locomotion, no, no, no, no, no, no
No, you can't bring it down 'cause I'm
Better than you

Better than you
Better than you
Better than you
Oooh
Better than you
Better than you
Better than you
Better than you
Much better than you

Better than you
Better than you
Ohh
Better than you
Better than You
Better than you
Better than you
Better than
Better than
Better than
Better than you

Can't stop this train from rollin'

And on and on and on...
And on and on and on...

Better than you
Yeah
Better than you

Carpe Diem Baby
(Hetfield/Ulrich/Hammett)

Hit dirt
Shake tree
Split sky
Part sea

Strip smile
Lose cool
Bleed the day
Break the rule

Live to win
Dare to fail
Eat the dirt
Bite the nail

Then make me miss you

Then make me miss you

So wash your face away with dirt

It don't feel good until it hurts
So take this world and shake it
Come squeeze and suck the day
Come carpe diem baby

Draw lead
Piss wine
Sink teeth
All mine

Stake fire
Break neck
Suffer through this
Cheat on death

Hug the curve
Lose the time
Tear the map
And shoot the sign

Then make me miss you

Then make me miss you

So wash your face away with dirt
It don't feel good until it hurts
So take this world and shake it
Come squeeze and suck the day
Come carpe diem baby
Yeah...suck it

Live to win, dare to fail
Eat dirt, bite the nail

Strip smile, loose cool
Bleed the day and break the rule

Hug the curve, lose the time
Tear the map, and shoot the sign

Then make me miss you
Come on Come on
Then make me miss you

So wash your face away with dirt
It don't feel good until it hurts
So take this world and shake it
Come squeeze and suck the day
Come make me miss you...
Come carpe diem baby
Come carpe diem baby

Where The Wild Things Are
(Hetfield-Ulrich-Newstead)

So wake up sleepy one...
It's time to save your world...

Steel dreams and give to you
Shop lift a thought or two
All children touch the sun
Burn your fingers one by one
By one...

Will this earth be good to you
Keep you clean or stained through...

So wake up sleepy one
It's time to save your world
You're where the wild things are
Yeah, toy soldiers off to war...

Big eyes to open to
Beating now under sun and moon
But does heavan know you're here?
And did they give you smiles or tears?
No, no tears...

Will this earth be good to you?
Keep you clean or stained through....

So wake up sleepy one
It's time to save your world
You're where the wild things are
Yeah, toy soldiers off to war...

You swing your ass all down
Something under it that
Call to arms are drawn out sound can't be made out which also makes this part hard to
Toy horses start the charge make out as well.
Robots, chessmen standing guard
We'll never surrender

All children touch the sun
Burn your fingers one by one
Will this earth be good to you?
Keep you clean or stained through.

So wake up sleepy one
It's time to save your world
You're where the wild things are
Yeah, toy soldiers off to war

Prince Charming
(Hetfield/Ulrich)

There's a black cloud up ahead, that's me
In the poison ivy chokes the tree, again it's me
I'm the filthy one on Bourbon Street, as you walk on by
I'm the little boy that pushes hard and makes him cry

There's a dirty needle in your child, haha, stick me
Empty bottles still in hand still dead, still me
I'm the suit and tie that bleeds the street and still wants more
I'm the 45 that's in your mouth
I'm a dirty, dirty wh*re

Yeah look it's me
The one who can't be free
Much too young to focus but too old to see
Hey look it's me, when no-one wants to see
See what you brought this world
Just what you want to see
Hey ma, hey ma look it's me

Yeah, he wants to be called father now, me again me
The marks inside your arms spell me spell lonely me
I'm a nothing face that plants a bomb and strolls away
I'm the one who doesn't look quite right as children play

Yeah look it's me
The one who can't be free
Much too young to focus but too old to see
Hey look it's me, when no-one wants to see
See what you brought this world
Just what you want to see
Hey ma, hey ma look it's me

Look up to me,
What you've been and what you fear
Look up to me
Look it's me, at what you hear
See right through me
See the one who can't be free
See right through me
Look it's me when no-one wants to see

Hmmm, now, see the black cloud up ahead, that's me

Low Man's Lyric
(Hetfield-Ulrich)

My eyes seek reality
My fingers seek my viens
Theres a dog at your back step
He must come in from the rain
I fall cause I let go
The net below has right away
So my eyes seek reality
And my fingers seek my viens

The Trash fire is warm
But nowhere safe from the storm
And I can't bare to see
What I've let me be
So wicked and worn

So as I write to you
What is dawning to do
Maybe you'll understand
And won't cry for this man
'Cause low man is due
Please forgive me

My eyes seek reality
My fingers feel for flame
Touch clean with a dirty hand
I touched the clean to the waste

The Trash fire is warm
But nowhere safe from the storm
I can't bare to see
What I've let me be
So wicked and worn

So as I write to you
What is dawning to do
Maybe you'll understand
And won't cry for this man
'Cause low man is due
Please forgive me
Please forgive me
Please forgive me

So low, the sky is all I see
All I want from you is forget a me
So you bring this poor dog in from the rain
Though he just wants right back out again

And I cry, to the alley way
Confess all to the rain
But I lie, lie straight to the mirror
One I've broken, to match my face

The Trash fire is warm
No safe from the storm
And I can't bare to see
What I've let me be
So wicked and worn...

So as I write to you
What is dawning to do
Maybe you'll understand
And won't cry for this man
'Cause low man is due
Please forgive me

Please forgive me

So low, the sky is all I see
All I want from you is forget a me
So, you bring this poor dog in from the rain...
Though he just wants right back out again

My eyes seek reality
My fingers seek my viens

Attitude
(Hetfield-Ulrich)

Suppose I say, I'm never satisfied
Suppose I say, you cuts the roots
To make the tree survive

Just let me kill you for a while
Just let me kill you for a smile
Just let me kill you once
I'm oh so born to die

Ohhhh, I hunger
I hunger
I eat

Born into attitude
Asleep at the wheel
Throw all your bullets in the fire
And run like hell
I get a fever, what ever happened to sweat

Suppose I say, the vultures smile at me
Suppose I say, I set them down they plan to pick you clean

And satifaction this way comes
And satifaction this way comes
And satifactions here and gone
gone, yeah gone again

Ohhhh, I hunger
Ooh I hunger
I eat

Born into attitude
Asleep at the wheel
Throw all your bullets in the fire
And stand there

Born into attitude
Twist mother tongue
Throw all your bullets in the fire
And run like hell
I get a fever, what ever happened to sweat?

Just let me kill you for a while
Just let me kill you for a smile
Just let me kill you once for me
I'm born to die

And satifaction this way comes
And satifaction this way comes
And satifactions here and gone
Gone, gone again

Yeah I hunger
Ohhh I hunger
I eat

Born into attitude
Asleep at the wheel
Throw all your bullets in the fire
And stand there

Born into attitude
Twist mother tongue
Throwing all your bullets in the fire
And run like heck
I get a fever, what ever happened to sweat

FiXXXer
(Hetfield-Ulrich-Hammett)

Dolls of voodoo all stuck with pins
One for each of us and our sins
So you lay us in a line
Push your pins and make us humble
Only you can tell in time
If we'll fall or merely stumble

So tell me
Can you heal what father's done
Or fix this hole in mother's son
Can you heal the broken worlds within?
Can you strip away so we may start again?
Tell me can you heal what father's done
Cut this rope and let us run
Just when all seems fine and I'm pain free
You jab another pin...
Jab a-nother pin in me

Mirror mirror upon the wall
Break the spell or become the doll
See you sharpening the pins
So the holes will remind us
We're just the toys in the hands of another
And in time the needles turn from shine to rust

But tell me
Can you heal what father's done
Fix the hole in mother's son
Can you heal the broken worlds within
Can you strip away so we may start again
Tell me can you heal what father's done
Cut this rope and let us run
Just when all seems fine and I'm pain free
You jab another pin
Jab another pin in me

Blood for face
Sweat for dirt
Three x's for the stone
To break this curse
A ritual's due
I believe I'm not alone
Shell of shotgun
Pint of gin
Numb us up to shield the pins
Renew our faith which way we can
To fall in love with life again
To fall in love with life again
To fall in love with life again
To fall in love
To fall in love
To fall in love with life again

So tell me
Can you heal what father's done
Fix the hole in mother's son
Can you heal the broken worlds within?
Can you strip away so we may start again?
Yeah, tell me can you heal what father's done
Cut this rope and let us run
Just when all seems fine and I'm pain free,
You jab another pin...
Jab another pin in me

No more pins in me
No more, no more pins in me
No more, no more pins in me
No more, no more, no more
No, no, no...
