...AND JUSTICE FOR ALL (Hetfield, Ulrich, Hammett)
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
Apathy their stepping stone
So unfeeling
Hidden deep animosity
So deceiving
Through your eyes their light burns
Hoping to find
Inquisition sinking you
With prying minds
    
Repeat **

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
     
Repeat **

BLACKENED (Hetfield, Ulrich, Newsted)
Blackened is the end
Winter it will send
Throwing all you see
Into obscurity
Death of mother earth
Never a rebirth
Evolution's end
Never will it mend
Never
**   Fire
     To begin whipping dance of the dead
     Blackened is the end
     To begin whipping dance of the dead
     Color our world blackened
Blistering of earth
Terminate its worth
Deadly nicotine
Kills what might have been
Callous frigid chill
Nothing left to kill
Never seen before
Breathing nevermore
Never
 
Repeat **
Opposition...Contradiction...Premonition...Compromise
Agitation...Violation...Mutilation...Planet dies
     Darkest color
     Blistered earth
     True death of life
Termination...Expiration...Cancellation...Human race
Expectation...Liberation...Population...Lay to waste
     See our mother
     Put to death
     See our mother die
Smouldering decay
Take her breath away
Millions of our years
In minutes disappears
Darkening in vain
Decadence remains
All is said and done
Never is the sun
Never
    Repeat **
     Fire
     Is the outcome of hypocrisy
     Darkest potency
     In the exit of humanity
     Color our world blackened
                  Blackened

EYE OF THE BEHOLDER (Hetfield, Ulrich, Hammett)
Do you see what I see?
Truth is an offence
You silence for your confidence
Do you hear what I hear?
Doors are slamming shut
Limit your imagination, Keep you where they must
Do you feel what I feel?
Bittering distress
Who decides what you express?
Do you take what I take?
Endurance is the word
Moving back instead of forward seems to me absurd
**  Doesn't matter what you see
    Or into it what you read
    You can do it your own way
    If it's done just how I say
        Independence limited
        Freedom of choice
        Choice is made for you my friend
        Freedom of speech
        Speech is words that they will bend
        Freedom with their exception
Do you fear what I fear?
Living properly
Truths to you are lies to me
Do you choose what I choose?
More alternatives
Energy derives from both the plus and negative
Do you need what I need?
Boundaries overthrown
Look inside, To each his own
Do you trust what I trust?
Me, Myself and I
Penetrate the smoke screen, I see through the selfish lie
  
Repeat **

ONE (Hetfield, Ulrich)
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
No that the war is through with me
I'm waking up, I cannot see
That there's 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
      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
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
