That Was Just Your Life
(Hetfield, Ulrich, Hammett, Trujillo)

Like a siren in my head that always 
Threatens to repeat
Like a blind man that is strapped into the speeding driver's seat. 
Like a face 
That learns to speak
When all it knew was how to bite.

Like a misery that keeps me focused 
Though I've gone astray.
Like an endless nightmare that 
I must awaken from each day.
Like conviction 
A premonition
Not worthy of, so I deny'? I deny.

I blind my eyes and try to force it all into place.
I stitch them up, see not my fall from grace.
I blind my eyes, I hide and feel it passing me by. 
I open just in time to say goodbye.

Almost like your life.
Almost like your endless fight. 
Curse the day is long.  

Realize you don't belong.
Disconnect somehow
Never stop the bleeding now.
Almost like your fight.
And there it went,
Almost like your life.

Like a wound that keeps on bleeding to remind me not to think.
Like a raging river drowning when 
I only need a drink.
Like a poison
That I swallow
But I want the world to die. 

Like a release from a prison 
That I didn't know was in.
Like a fight to live the past I prayed 
To leave
From way back then.
Like a general 
Without a mission 
Until the war will start again'? start again.

I blind my eyes and try to force it all into place.
I stitch them up, see not my fall from grace.
I blind my eyes,
I hide and feel it passing me by. 
I open just in time to say goodbye.

Almost like your life.
Almost like your endless fight. 
Curse the day is long. 
Realize you don't belong.
Disconnect somehow
Never stop the bleeding now.
Almost like your fight.
And there it went,
Almost like your life.

Like a touch from hell to feel how hot
That it can get if you get caught.
Like a strike from heaven turns that key
And brings you straight down to your knees.

Like a touch from hell to feel how hot
That it can get if I get caught.
Like a strike from heaven to reprieve 
That brings you straight down to your knees.

Almost like your life.
Almost like your endless fight. 
Curse the day is long. 
Realize you don't belong.
Disconnect somehow
Never stop the bleeding now.
Almost like your fight.
And there it went,
Almost like your life.
That was just your life.

Say goodbye
‘Cause you've reached the end of the line! 

The end of the line 
The end of the line 
The end of the line 
You've reached the end of the line...



Broken, Beat & Scarred
(Hetfield, Ulrich, Hammett, Trujillo)

You rise.
You fall.
You're down, then you rise again.
What don't kill ya make ya more strong.
You rise.
You fall.
You're down, then you rise again.
What don't kill ya make ya more strong.
Rise, fall, down, rise again 
What don't kill ya make ya more strong.
Rise, fall, down, rise again 
What don't kill ya make ya more strong.

Through black days
Through black nights
Through pitch black insides

Breaking your teeth on the hard life comin'. 
Show your scars.
Cutting your feet on the hard earth runnin'. 
Show your scars.
Breaking your life, broken, beat and scarred 
But we die hard. 

The dawn, 
The death, 
The fight to the final breath.
What don't kill ya make ya more strong.
The dawn,
The death, 
The fight to the final breath.
What don't kill ya make ya more strong.
Dawn, death, fight, final breath.
What don't kill ya make ya more strong.
Dawn, death, fight, final breath. 
What don't kill ya make ya more strong.

They scratch me
They scrape me
They cut and rape me

Breaking your teeth on the hard life comin'. 
Show your scars.
Cutting your feet on the hard earth runnin'. 
Show your scars.
Breaking your life, broken, beat and scarred
We die hard!

Breaking your teeth on the hard life comin'. 
Show your scars.
Cutting your feet on the hard earth runnin'. 
Show your scars.
Bleeding your soul in a hard luck story.
Show your scars.
Spilling your blood in the hot sun's glory.
Show your scars.
Breaking your life, broken, beat and scarred.      

We die hard!
We die hard! 
We die hard!



The Day That Never Comes
(Hetfield, Ulrich, Hammett, Trujillo)

Born to push you around
Better just stay down
You pull away
He hits the flesh
You hit the ground
Mouth so full of lies
Tender black your eyes
Just keep them closed
Keep praying
Just keep waiting

Waiting for the one
The day that never comes
When you stand up and feel the warmth
But the son shine never comes, no
No, the son shine never comes

Push you cross that line
Just stay down this time
Hide in yourself
Crawl in yourself
You'll have your time
God, I'll make them pay
Take it back one day
I'll end this day
I'll splatter color on this gray

Waiting for the one
The day that never comes
When you stand up and feel the warmth
But the sunshine never comes
No the sunshine never comes

Love... is a four-letter word
And never spoken here
Love... is a four letter word
Here in this prison
I suffer this no longer
I`ll put an end to this, I swear
This, I swear. The son will shine
This, I swear
This, I swear
This, I swear



 All Nightmare Long 
(Hetfield, Ulrich, Hammett, Trujillo)

(One, two!)

Luck. Runs. Out. 

Crawl from the wreckage one more time 
Horrific memory twists the mind. 
Dark, rutted, cold and hard to turn. 
Path of destruction, feel it burn. 

Still life... incarnation. 
Still life... infamy. 

Hallucination. 
Heresy. 
Still you run, what's to come? 
What's to be? 

'Cause we...
Hunt you down without mercy 
Hunt you down all nightmare long 
Feel us breathe upon your face 
Feel us shift, every move we trace 
Hunt you down without mercy 
Hunt you down all nightmare long 
(Yeah)
Luck. Runs. Out.

You crawl back in, 
But your luck runs out. 

(One, two!)

Luck. Runs. Out.

The light that is not light is here 
To flush you out with your own fear 
You hide, you hide but will be found 
Release your grip without a sound. 

Still life... immolation. 
Still life... infamy.

Hallucination. 
Heresy. 
Still you run, what's to come? 
What's to be? 

‘Cause we... 
Hunt you down without mercy 
Hunt you down all nightmare long 
Feel us breathe upon your face 
Feel us shift every move we trace 
Hunt you down without mercy 
Hunt you down all nightmare long
(Yeah)
Luck. Runs. Out.

You crawl back in, 
But your luck runs out.

Out.

(One, two, three, four!)

Then you crawl back in, 
Into your obsession, 
Never to return, 
This is your confession. 

Hunt you down without mercy 
Hunt you down all nightmare long 
Feel us breathe upon your face 
Feel us shift every move we trace 
Hunt you down without mercy 
Hunt you down all nightmare long
(Yeah) 
Luck. Runs. Out.

You crawl back in, 
But your luck runs out.

Your luck runs out!



 Cyanide
(Hetfield, Ulrich, Hammett, Trujillo)

Sleep and dream of this
Death angel's kiss
Brings final bliss
Completely!

Empty they say,
Death, won't you let me stay?
Empty they say
Death, hear me call your name
Call your name...Suicide

I've already died
You`re just the funeral
I've been waiting for...Cyanide
Living dead inside
Break this empty shell forevermore

Wait, wait patiently
Your death black wings
Unfolding sleep
Spreading o`er me!

Empty they say
Death, won't you let me stay?
Empty they say
Death, hear me call your name
Call your name...Suicide
I've already died
You`re just the funeral
I've been waiting for...Cyanide
Living dead inside
Break this empty shell forevermore

Say, is that rain or are they tears
That has stained your concrete face for years?
The crying, weeping, shedding strife
Year after year, life after life

An air of freshly broken ground
A concrete angel lit right down
Upon the grave which swallows fast
It's peace at last,
Oh, peace at last!

Empty they say
Death, won't you let me stay?
Empty they say
Death, hear me call your name
Call your name!

Suicide, I've already died
It's just the funeral I've been waiting for
Cyanide, living dead inside
Break this empty shell forevermore

Forevermore!
Forevermore!
It's just the funeral I've been waiting for!



The Unforgiven III
(Hetfield, Ulrich, Hammett, Trujillo)

How could he know this new dawn's light
Would change his life forever?
Set sail to sea, but pulled off course
By the light of golden treasure.

Was he the one causing pain
With his careless dreaming?
Been afraid, always afraid,
Of the things he's feeling.

He could just be gone.
He would just sail on
He'll just sail on.

How can I be lost, if I've got nowhere to go?
Search for seas of gold, 
How come it's got so cold?

How can I be lost? In remembrance I relive.
And how can I blame you, 
When it's me I can't forgive?

These days drift on inside a fog
It's thick and suffocating 
His sinking life, outside its hell.
Inside, intoxicating.

He's run aground. Like his life, 
Water much too shallow.
Slipping fast, down with his ship, 
Fading in the shadows.

Now a castaway.
They've all gone away.
They've gone away.

How can I be lost, if I've got nowhere to go?
Search for seas of gold, 
How come it's got so cold?
How can I be lost? In remembrance I relive.
And how can I blame you, 
When it's me I can't forgive?

Forgive me 
Forgive me not 
Forgive me 
Forgive me not 
Forgive me 
Forgive me not 
Forgive me 
Forgive me 
Why can't I forgive me? 

Set sail to sea, but pulled off course
By the light of golden treasure.
How could he know this new dawn's light
Would change his life forever?

How can I be lost, if I've got nowhere to go?
Search for seas of gold, 
How come it's got so cold?

How can I be lost? In remembrance I relive.
So how can I blame you, 
When it's me I can't forgive?



 The Judas Kiss
(Hetfield, Ulrich, Hammett, Trujillo)

When the world has turned its back 
When the days have turned pitch black 
When the fear abducts your tongue 
When the fire's dead and gone 

So what now? 
Where do I head? 

When you think it's all said and done 
When you are the ostracized 
Selfish ridden dead goodbyes 
Twisting on the tourniquet 
When the pieces never fit 

So what now? 
Where do I head? 

When you think it's all said and done... 

Bow down! 
Sell your soul to me 
I will set you free 
Pacify your demons 

Bow down! 
Surrender unto me 
Submit infectiously 
Sanctify your demons 
Into abyss, 
You don't exist. 
Cannot resist, 
The Judas kiss! 

When the storm has blacked your sky 
Intuition crucify 
When the ego strips your reign 
Assasinate the living flame 

So, what now? 
Where do I head? 

When you think it's all said and done 
Venom of a life insane 
Bites into your fragile vein 
Internalize and decimate 
Patronize and complicate

So, what now? 
Where do I head? 

When you think it's all said and done... 

Bow down! 
Sell your soul to me 
I will set you free 
Pacify your demons 

Bow down! 
Surrender unto me 
Submit infectiously 
Sanctify your demons 
Into abyss 
You don't exist 
Cannot resist 
The Judas kiss! 

Judas lives, recite this vow: 
I've become your new god now! 

Followed you from dawn of time 
Whispered thoughts into your mind 
Watched your towers hit the ground 
Lured your children never found 
Helped your kings abuse their crown 

In the heart of feeble man 
Plant the seed of my own plan 
The strong and powerful will fall 
Find a piece of me in all... 
Inside you all, 

So bow down! 
Sell your soul to me 
I will set you free 
Pacify your demons 

Bow down! 
Surrender unto me 
Submit infectiously 
Sanctify your demons 
Into abyss 
You don't exist 
Cannot resist 
The Judas kiss!

My Apocalypse
(Hetfield, Ulrich, Hammett, Trujillo)

Claustrophobic
Crawl out of this skin
Heart explosive
Reach in, pull that pin

Feel thy name: extermination
Desecrate inhale the fire

So we cross that line
Into the grips
Total eclipse
Suffer unto my apocalypse!

Deadly vision
Prophecy reveal
Death magnetic
Pulling closer still

Fear thy name: annihilation
Desolate inhale the fire

So we cross that line
Into the grips
Total eclipse
Suffer unto my apocalypse!

My apocalypse... Go!

Crushing metal, ripping skin
Tossing body, mannequin
Spilling Blood, bleeding gas

Mangle flesh, snapping spine
Dripping bloody valentine
Shatter face, spitting glass

Split apart
Split apart
Split apart
Split
Spit it out!

What makes me drift a little bit closer?
Dead man takes the steering wheel
What makes me know it's time to cross over?
Words to repeat until I feel

See through the skin, the bones they all rattle
Future and past, they disagree
Flesh falls away, the bones they all shatter
I start to see the end. In. Me.

See the end in me...

Clautrophobic
Climb out of this skin
Heart explosive
Waiting for that pin

Violate, annihilate
All wounds unto my eyes
Obliterate, exterminate
It locked itself denied

Feel thy name as hell awakens
Destiny inhale the fire

But we`ve crossed that line
Into the grips
Total eclipse
Suffer unto my apocalypse!

Tyrant awaken my apocalypse!
Demon awaken my apocalypse!
Heaven awaken my apocalypse!
Suffer forever my apocalypse!
