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
-
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
-
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

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 sad 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 here
-
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 reasoned alibis
-
I'm inside, open your eyes
-
I'm you
-
Sad but true

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
-
-
[Chorus:]
-
Holier than thou
-
You are
-
Holier than thou
-
You are
-
Hou know not
-
-
Before you judge me take a look at you
-
Can't you find somethig 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

Metallica - The Unforgiven - Black Album

|
|
-
-
New blood joins this earth
-
And quickly he's subdued
-
Through constant pain 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
-
-
[Chorus:]
-
-
What I've felt
-
What I've known
-
Never shined through 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 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
-
A tired man they see no longer cares
-
The old man then prepares
-
To die regretfully
-
That old man, he is me
-
[Chorus]
-
-
You labeled me
-
I'll label you
-
So I dub the unforgiven

...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 may 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 never mind anywhere
-
Anywhere I may 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 may roam
-
Where I lay my head is home
-
Carved upon my stone
-
My body lie, but still I roam
-
Wherever I may roam

-
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
-
-
[Chorus:]
-
-
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 live it, she with the deadly bite
-
Quick is the blue tongue, forked as lighting strike
-
Shining with brightness, always on surveillance
-
The eyes, they never close, emblem of vigilance
-
-
[Chorus]

So be it

Threaten no more

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 trhuth no matter 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

[Chorus]

On through the never

We must go

On through the never

Out of the

Edge of forever

We must go

On through the never

Fearing no one was listening to you

They say the empty can rattles the most

The sound of your 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

You insist that the weight of the world

Should be on your shoulders

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

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 ot lose
-
What the hell
-
What is 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
-
-
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 tou've got to feel
-
Closing in
-
The pressure upon you is so real

Reaching out for something you've got to feel
