Ain't My Bitch

(Hetfield, Ulrich)

Outta my day Outta your mind and into mine Into no one Into not one Into your step but outta time

Head strong What's wrong? I've already heard this song before you've arrived But now it's time To kiss you ass good-bye

Dragging me down Why you around? So useless

It ain't my fault It ain't my call It ain't my bitch It ain't my bitch

Down on the sun Down and no fun Down and out where the hell ya been?

Damn it all down Damn it unbound Damn it all down ta hell again

Stand tall Can't fall Never even bend at all Before... you've arrived But now it's time To kiss your ass good-bye

Dragging me down Why you around? So useless

It ain't my fault It ain't my call It ain't my bitch

Outta my way Outta my day Outta of your mind and into mine Into no one Into not one Into your step but outta of time

Head strong What's wrong? I've already heard this song before you've arrived But now it's time To kiss your ass good-bye And now it's time to kiss you ass good-bye

Dragging me down Why you around? So useless

It ain't my fault It ain't my call It ain't my bitch

No way but down Why you around? No foolin'

It ain't my smile It ain't my style It ain't my bitch No it ain't mine

Ain't mine Your kind Your stepin' outta time Ain't mine Your kind Your stepin' outta time

Dragging me down Why you around? No foolin'

It ain't my fault It ain't my call It ain't my

Bitch... you ain't mine

The House That Jack Built

(Hetfield, Ulrich, Hammett)

Open doors so I walk inside Close my eyes Find my place to hide And I shake as I take it in Let the show begin

Open my eyes Just to have them close again Well on my way But on my way to where I've been

It swallows me As it takes me in it's fog I twist away As I give this world a nod

Open doors so I walk inside Close my eyes Find my place to hide And I shake as I take it in Let the show begin

Open my eyes Just to have them close once again Don't want control As it takes me down and down and down again

Is that the moon Or just a light that lights this dead end street? Is that you there Or just another demon that I meet?

The higher you are The farther you fall The longer the walk The farther you crawl My body my temple This temple it tilts Step into the house that Jack built

The higher you are The farther you fall The longer the walk The farther you crawl My body my temple This temple it tilts Yes this is the house that Jack built

Open doors as I walk inside Swallow me so the pain subsides And I shake as I take this in Let the show begin

The higher you are The farther you fall The longer the walk The farther you crawl My body my temple This temple it tilts Yes this is the house that Jack built

The higher you are The farther you fall The longer the walk The farther you crawl My body my temple This temple it tilts "Yes I am I am I am"

Open my eyes It swallows me Is that you there I twist away

Away Away Away

Until It Sleeps

(Hetfield, Ulrich)

Where do I take this pain of mine I run, but it stays right my side

So tear me open, pour me out There's things inside that scream and shout And the pain still hates me So hold me, until it sleeps

Just like the curse, just like the stray You feed it once, and now it stays

So tear me open, but beware There's things inside without a care And the dirt still stains me So wash me, until I'm clean

It grips you, so hold me It stains you, so hold me It hates you, so hold me It holds you, so hold me Until it sleeps

So tell me why you've choosen me Don't want your grip, don't want your greed

I'll tear me open, make you gone No more can you hurt anyone And the fear still shakes me So hold me, until it sleeps

It grips you, so hold me It stains you, so hold me It hates you, so hold me It holds you, so hold me Until it sleeps

I don't want it

So tear me open, but beware The things inside without a care And the dirt still stains me So wash me, 'till I'm clean...

I'll tear me open, make you gone No longer will you hurt anyone And the fear still shapes me So hold me, until it sleeps... Until it sleeps...

King Nothing

(Hetfield, Ulrich, Hammett)

Wish I may Wish I might Have this I wish tonight Are you satisfied?

Dig for gold Dig for fame You dig to make your name Are you pacified?

All the wants you waste All the things you've chased

Then it all crashes down And you break your crown And you point your finger But there's no one around

Just want one thing Just to play the king But the castle's crumbled And you're left with just a name

Where's your crown King Nothing? Where's your crown?

Hot and cold Bought and sold A heart as hard as gold Yeah! Are you satisfied?

Wish I might Wish I may You wish your life away Are you pacified?

All the wants you waste All the things you've chased

Then it all crashes down And you break your crown And you point your finger But there's no one around

Just want one thing Just to play the king But the castle's crumbled And you're left with just a name

Where's your crown King Nothing? Where's your crown?

Huh!

(Spoken) I wish I may I wish I might Have this wish I wish tonight I want that star I want it now I want it all and I don't care how

Careful what you wish Careful what you say Careful what you wish You may regret it Careful what you wish You just might get it

Then it all crashes down And you break your crown And you point your finger But there's no one around!

Just want one thing Just to play the king But the castle's crumbled And you're left with just a name

Where's your crown King Nothing? Nothing

No you're just nothing Where's your crown King Nothing? No you're just nothing Absolutely nothing

Off to never never land

Hero of the Day

(Hetfield, Ulrich, Hammett)

Mama they try and break me

The window burns to light the way back home A light that warms no matter where they've gone

They're off to find the hero of the day But what if they should fall by someone's wicked way

Still the window burns Time so slowly turns And someone there is sighing Keepers of the flames Do you feel your name? Did you hear your babies crying?

Mama they try and break me Still they try and break me

'Scuse me while I tend to how to feel These things return to me that still seem real

Now deservingly this easy chair But the rocking stopped by wheels of despair

Don't want your aid But the fist I make For you,can't hold off fear No not on me So please excuse me While I tend to how I feel

But now the dreams and waking screams That everlast the night So build a wall Behind it crawl And hide until it's light So can't you hear your babies crying now?

Still the window burns Time so slowly turns And someone there is sighing Keepers of the flames Can't you hear your name? Did you hear your babies crying?

But now the dreams and waking screams That everlast the night So build a wall Behind it crawl And hide until it's light So can't you hear your babies crying now?

Mama they try and break me Mama they try and break me Mama they try and break me Mama they try Mama they try Mama they try and break me Mama they try and break me Mama they try and break me Mama they try Mama they try

Bleeding Me

(Hetfield, Ulrich, Hammett)

I'm diggin' my way to somethin' I'm diggin' my way to somethin' better

I'm pushin' to stay I'm pushin' to stay with something I'm pushin' to stay with something better

I'm sowing the seeds I'm sowing the seeds I've taken I'm sowing the seeds I take for granted

This thorn in my side This thorn in my side is from the tree This thorn in my side is from the tree I've planted It tears me and I bleed And I bleed

Caught under wheels roll I take the leech I'm bleeding me Can't stop to save my soul I take the leash That's leading me I'm bleeding me I can't take it Caught under wheels roll Oh, the bleeding of me Oh of me The bleeding of me

Caught under wheels roll Itake the leech I'm bleeding me Can't stop to save my soul I take the leash That's leading me I'm bleeding me I can't take it Caught under wheels roll Oh, the bleeding of me Oh, the bleeding of me

I am the beast That bleeds the feast I am the blood I am release Come make me pure Bleed me a cure I'm caught, I'm caught, I'm caught under

Caught under wheels roll I take that leash I'm bleeding me Can't stop to save my soul I take the leash That's leading me I'm bleeding me I can't take it I can't take it I can't take it Oh, oh the bleeding of me

I'm diggin' my way I'm diggin' my way to somethin'
