"For Whom the Bell Tolls"
Album:Ride the Lightning 1984
Times Played:1278

Make his fight on the hill in the early day

Constant chill deep inside

Shouting gun, on they run through
The endless gray

On they fight, for they are right, yes,
But who's to say?

For a hill, men would kill. Why?
They do not know

Stiffened wounds test their pride

Men of five, still alive through the
Raging glow

Gone insane from the pain
That they surely know

For whom the bell tolls

Time marches on

Sing it...

For whom the bell tolls
that's right

Take a look to the sky just before you die

It's the last time he will

Blackened roar, massive roar,
Fills the crumbling sky

Shattered goal fills his soul
With a ruthless cry

Stranger now are his eyes to this mystery

He hears the silence so loud

Crack of dawn, all is gone
Except the will to be

Now they see what will be,
Blinded eyes to see

For whom the bell tolls

Time marches on

Sing it

For whom the bell tolls

absolutely.

Gimme fuel, gimme fire
Gimme that which I desire

Turn on, I see red

Adrenaline crash and crack my head

Nitro junkie, paint me dead

And I see red

One hundred plus through black and white

War horse, warhead

Fuck 'em, man, white-knuckle tight

Through black and white

On I burn

Fuel is pumping engines

Burning hard, loose and clean

And on I burn

Churning my direction

Quench my thirst with gasoline

So gimme fuel, gimme fire
Gimme that which I desire

Turn on beyond the bone

Swallow future, spit out home

Burn your face upon the chrome

Take the corner, join the crash,

Headlights, headlines

Another junkie lives too fast

Lives way too fast fast fast

On I burn

Fuel is pumping engines

Burning hard, loose and clean

And on I burn

Churning my direction

Quench my thirst with gasoline

So gimme fuel, gimme fire
Gimme that which I desire

burn babyboy

On I burn

Fuel is pumping engines

Burning hard, loose and clean

And on I burn

Churning my direction

Quench my thirst with gasoline

Gimme fuel, gimme fire
Gimme that which I desire

Guilty as charged

But damn it, it ain't right

There's someone else controlling me

Death in the air

Strapped in the electric chair

This can't be happening to me

Who made you God to say,

I'll take your life from you?

Flash before my eyes

Now it's time to die

Burning in my brain

I can feel the flame

Wait for the sign

To flick the switch of death

It's the beginning of the end

Sweat, chilling cold

As I watch death unfold

Consciousness my only friend

O_o
Persian Scorpions Army

...frightening dream

Flash before my eyes

Now it's time to die

Burning in my brain

I can feel the flame

Someone help me

Oh please, God help me

They are trying to take it all away

I don't want to die

Follow ME
Hey Hey Hey

Someone help me

please, God help me

They are trying to take it all away

I don't want to die

Time moving slow

The minutes seem like hours

The final curtain call I see

How true is this

Just get it over with

If this is true, just let it be

Wakened by horrid scream

Freed from this frightening dream

Flash before my eyes

Now it's time to die

Burning in my brain

I can feel the flame

... have been dispatched to the downtown area..

...police is ready to re-gain order...

I can't remember anything

Can't tell if this is true or dream

Deep down inside I feel to scream

This terrible silence stops me

Now that the war is through with me

I'm waking up, I cannot see

That there is not much left of me

Nothing is real but pain now

Hold my breath as I wish for death

Oh please, God, wake me

Back in the womb it's much
too real

In pumps life that I must feel

But can't look forward to reveal

Look to the time when I'll live

Fed through the tube that sticks in me

Just like a wartime novelty

Tied to machines that make me be

Cut this life off from me

Hold my breath as I wish for death

Oh please, God, wake me

please, God, wake me

Now the world is gone, I'm just one

Oh God, help me

Hold my breath as I wish for death

Oh please, God, help me

help me

Darkness imprisoning me

All that I see

Absolute horror

I cannot live

I cannot die

Trapped in myself

Body my holding cell

Landmine has taken my sight

Taken my speech

Taken my hearing

Taken my arms

Taken my legs

Taken my soul

Left me with life in hell

oh no, no GOD no
please no no no

oh please GOD help me

Fortune, fame

Mirror vain

Gone insane

But the memory remains

"The Memory Remains"
Album:ReLoad 1997
Times Played:216

Heavy rings on fingers wave

Another star denies the grave

See the nowhere crowd cry
the nowhere cheers of honor

Like twisted vines that grow

Hide and swallow mansions whole

And dim the light of an already
faded prima donna

Fortune, fame

Mirror vain

Gone insane

Fortune, fame

Mirror vain

Gone insane

But the memory remains
yeeeeh

Heavy rings hold cigarettes

Up to lips that time forgets

While the Hollywood sun sets
behind your back

And can't the band play on?

Just listen, they play my song

Ash to ash, dust to dust, fade to black

Fortune, fame

Mirror vain

Gone insane

Insane

Fortune, fame

Mirror vain

Gone insane

Dance, little tin goddess

Sing

Drift away

Fade away

Little tin goddess

Ash to ash

Dust to dust

Fade to black

Fortune, fame

Mirror vain

Gone insane

Fortune, fame

Mirror vain

Gone insane

But the memory remains

Ash to ash

Dust to dust

Fade to black

But the memory remains

To this faded prima donna

Dance, little tin goddess, dance

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

Persian Scorpions Army

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 forever more

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, peace at last!

"And Justice for All"
Album:And Justice for All 1988
Times Played:233

Halls of justice painted green

Money talking

Power wolves beset your door

Hear them stalking

Soon you'll please their appetite

They devour

Hammer of justice crushes you

Overpower

The ultimate in vanity

Exploiting their supremacy

I can't believe the things you say

I can't believe, I can't believe
the price you pay

Nothing can save you

Justice is lost

Justice is raped

Justice is gone

Pulling your strings

Justice is done

Seeking no truth

Winning is all

Find it so grim, so true, so real

it justice for all

Persian Scorpions Army

Lady Justice has been raped

Truth assassin

Rolls of red tape seal your lips

Now you're done in

Their money tips her scales again

Make your deal

Just what is truth, I cannot tell

Cannot feel

i Can't feel

The ultimate in vanity

Exploiting their supremacy

I can't believe the things you say

I can't believe, I can't believe the price
we pay

Nothing can save us

Justice is lost

Justice is raped

Justice is gone

Pulling your strings

Justice is done

Seeking no truth

Winning is all

Find it so grim, so true, so real

Master

End of passion play, crumbling away

I'm your source of self-destruction

Veins that pump with fear,
sucking darkest clear

Leading on your death's construction

Taste me, you will see

More is all you need

You're dedicated to

How I'm killing you

Come crawling faster

Obey your master

Your life burns faster

Obey your master

Master

Master of puppets, I'm pulling your strings

Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams

Blinded by me, you can't see a thing

Just call my name,
'cause I'll hear you scream

Needlework the way, never you betray

Life of death becoming clearer

Pain monopoly, ritual misery

Chop your breakfast on a mirror

Taste me you will see

Come crawling faster

Obey your master

Your life burns faster

Master, master

Where's the dreams that I've been after?

Master, master

You promised only lies

Laughter, laughter

All I hear and see is laughter

Laughter, laughter

Laughing at my cries

Hell is worth all that, natural habitat

Just a rhyme without a reason

Never-ending maze, drift on numbered days

Now your life is out of season

I will occupy

I will help you die

I will run through you

Now I rule you, too

give it to me

Come crawling faster

Obey your master

Your life burns faster

Obey your master

Lashing out the action,
returning the reaction

Weak are ripped and torn away

Hypnotizing power, crushing all that cower

Battery is here to stay

Smashing through the boundaries,
lunacy has found me

Cannot stop the battery

Pounding out aggression turns into obsession

Cannot kill the battery

Cannot kill the family,
battery is found in me

Battery

Battery

Crushing all deceivers,
mashing non-believers

Never-ending potency

Hungry violence-seeker feeding
off the weaker

Breeding on insanity

Smashing through the boundaries,
lunacy has found me

Cannot stop the battery

Pounding out aggression turns into obsession

Cannot kill the battery

Cannot kill the family,
battery is found in me

Battery

Battery

are you alive?

are you alive?

how does it feel to be alive?

So close no matter how far

Couldn't be much more from the heart

Forever trusting who we are

No nothing else matters

Never opened myself this way

Life is ours, we live it our way

All these words I don't just say

No nothing else matters

Trust I seek and I find in you

Every day for us something new

Open mind for a different view

And nothing else matters

Never cared for what they do

Never cared for what they know

But I know

So close no matter how far

It couldn't be much more from the heart

Forever trusting who we are

No nothing else matters

Never cared for what they do

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

Sing it

Enter night

Take my hand

We're 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

Come-oN

Enter night

Take my hand

We're off to never-never land

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 beasts under your bed

In your closet, in your head

Exit light

give it to me

Enter night

Grain of sand

Exit light

Enter night

Take my hand

We're off to never-never land

wow wow wow
