Desccent into Shadows, A Tribute to METALLICA

By HeadpatSlut

Descent Into Shadows (Tribute to Metallica)





Shoot Me Again because you know I'm not dead-
My dear Friend of Misery, I'm sick inside the head.

The Master of Puppets leading me into death, every breath that I take, heavy strain-
Relentless Batteries always assault, and to a fault all I know now is Pain-

The Judas Kiss will set you free.

King Nothing sits upon his throne, He sits alone, the Sandman enters insane-
To Live is to Die when we never know why as the Phantom Lord is washed away with the rain-

Now Hit The Lights so you can see.

The Leper Messiah crumbles fast into the past, and into dust-
Jack built his house, somewhere there aouts, but the beams gave way to rust-

Within this Sanitarium so fine.

Poor old worthless, Twisted Me, with nothing left to see, and nothing I can trust-
Nothing Else that Matters, Broken, Beaten, Scarred with lust-

You're someone's Bitch, but you Ain't Mine.

Wherever I may roam I ride alone, the Daily Hero fades away-
A Low Man's Lyric Bleeds Me through, but not for you, no, not today-

The Frayed Ends Of Sanity tearing, ripping me apart.

Fuel to get that Fix, the Bad Seed sticks and slithers to the fray-
Don't you dare Tread On Me, so soon you will see things my way-
.
Untill It Sleeps it never stops, it will destroy your heart.

Following The God That Failed, No Remorse to those who hailed, Whiplash breaking through-
The Day That Never Comes, the sun is done, The Thing That Should Not Be is crushing you-

Damages Incorporated branding into flames.

three Unforgiven men who were never seen again, carbon copies cut in two-
Smell the Motor's Breath the burning steel, Jump Into the fire just to feel, but you don't know what to do-

Fight Fire with Fire and forget all the names.

All Nightmare Long you run but now you find you're overcome with fright-
Here you will see Four Horsemen ride tonight-

Riding the Lightning so high that you break.

I'm Holier Than Thou, and now there is no way to set this right-
Of Wolf And Man, the master's plan will rob you of your sight-

Escaping the Creeping Death by an inch, you forsake.

For Whom Tolls the funeral Bell, the One is turning back-
The Cyanide injected heavy, as this world Fades To Black.
