Death Magnetic Lyrics
That Was Just Your Life
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 learned 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,
Real-ize 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 prison
That I didn't know I 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 wars 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,
Real-ize 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 to reprieve
That 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,
Real-ize 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
The End Of The Line
Need, more and more, tainted misery
Bleed, battle scars, chemical affinity
Reign, legacy, innocence corrode
Stain, rot away, catatonic overload
Choke, asphyxia, snuff reality
Scorch, kill the light, incinerate celebrity
Reaper, butchery, karma amputee
Bloodline, redefine, death, contagious deity
Oh yeah,
Hooked into this deceiver,
Need more and more
Into the endless fever,
Need more and more
New consequence machine
You burn through all your gasoline
Asylum overtime, nevermind,
You've, reached, the, end, of the, line
Time, choke the clock
Steal another day
Die, faithfully, narcissistic fade away
Twisted, jump the rail
Shatter the crowd below
Breaker, chase the ghost
From latest high to alltime low
Hooked into this deceiver,
Need more and more
Into the endless fever,
Need more and more
New consequence machine
You burn through all your gasoline
Asylum overtime, nevermind,
You've, reached, the, end, of the, line
Drop the hourglass of time,
Spilling sand, we will not find,
As we gather here today,
We bid farewell,
The slave becomes the master
The slave becomes the master
The slave becomes the master, yeah
The slave becomes the master
Need more and more
Right now and ever after
Need more and more
New consequence machine
You burn through all your gasoline
Asylum overtime, nevermind
Dead hourglass of time
Sand we will not ever find
We gather here today, 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
You rise, you fall,
Your down, then you rise again,
What don't kill ya, make, you, more strong
You rise, you fall,
Your down, then you rise again,
What don't kill ya, make, you more strong
Rise, fall, down, rise again
What don't kill ya, make, you, more strong
Rise, fall, down, rise again
What don't kill ya, make, you, more strong
Through black days, through black nights,
Through pitch black insights
Breaking your teeth, on the hard, life a'coming
Show, your, scars,
Cutting your feet, on the hard, earth a'running
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, you, more strong
The dawn, the death, the fight,
To, the final breath,
What don't kill ya, make, you, more strong
Dawn, death, fight, final breath
What don't kill ya, make, you, more strong
Dawn, death, fight, final breath
What don't kill ya, make, you, more strong,
They scratch me, they scrape me,
They cut, and, rape me
Breaking your teeth, on the hard, life a'coming
Show, your, scars,
Cutting your feet, on the hard, earth a'running
Show, your, scars,
Breaking your life, broken, beat and, scarred
But, we, die, hard!
Breaking your teeth, on the hard, life a'coming
Show, your, scars,
Cutting your feet, on the hard, earth a'running
Show, your, scars,
Bleeding your soul, in a hard luck a'story
Show, your, scars,
Spilling your blood in a hot sun’s, a'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
Born to push you around,
Better just stay down,
You pull away,
He hits the flesh,
You hit the ground,
Mouths so full of lies,
Tend to 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 sunshine never comes,
No, the sunshine, 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
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 sun will shine,
This I swear, this I swear!
This, I, swear!
All Nightmare Long
1, 2,
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
Hallu-cination, 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
1, 2
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
Hallu-cination, 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
1, 2, 3, 4
Then you crawl back in,
Into your, ob-session,
Never to, re-turn,
This is your, con-fession
...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-a
Your luck runs ouuuut!
Cyanide
Sleep, and dream of this,
Death angel's kiss, brings final bliss
Completely
Em-pty they say,
Death!, won't you let, me, stay,
Em-pty they say,
Death!, hear me call, your, name,
Ooh, 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 on me
Em-pty they say,
Death!, won't you let, me, stay,
Em-pty they say,
Death!, hear me call, your, name,
Ooh, 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 stained your concrete, face, for years,
The crying, weeping, shedding strife,
Year after year, life, after life
In narrow freshly broken, ground,
A concrete angel, laid right down,
Upon the grave, which swallows, fast,
It's peace at last, oh peace at last
Hmm, em-pty they say,
Death!, won't you let, me, stay,
Em-pty 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,
Forevermore, forevermore,
It's just the funeral, i've been wai-ting, for
The Unforgiven III
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
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 go I
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 go I
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 ju-das, kiss
When the storm has blacked your sky
Intuition crucify
When the ego strips your reign
Assissinate the living flame
So, what now, where go I
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 go I
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 ju-das, 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
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 ju-das, kiss
Suicide & Redemption

My Apocalypse
Claustrophobic, crawl out of this skin,
Heart explosive, reach in, pull that pin,
Fear thy name extermination,
Desecrate, inhale the fire
So we, cross, that, line,
Into the grips, total eclipse
Suffer, unto, my, a-poca-lypse
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, a-poca-lypse
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
Spit, 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,
Born to repeat, until I feel
See through the skin, bones they all rattle,
Future and past, they disagree,
Flesh falls away, bones they all shatter,
I start to see the end in me,
See the end in me
Claustrophobic, crawl out of this skin,
Heart explosive, reach in, pull that pin,
Violate, annihilate,
All wounds, unto my eyes
Obliterate, exterminate,
As life itself, denied
Fear thy name, as hell awakens,
Destiny, inhale the fire
But we’ve, crossed, that, line,
Into the grips, total eclipse
Suffer, unto, my, a-poca-lypse
Tyrant awaken my apocalypse,
Demon awaken my apocalypse,
Heaven awaken my apocalypse,
Suffer forever my apocalyp-se
