Metallica Lyrics
Each time I buy Metallica tickets I know I’ll be saving the stub for posterity. Metallica tickets, like Metallica lyrics, are each different and all beautiful. Metallica concert dates never fail to move me. Metallica are known for rocking the house and this coming Death Magnetic Tour will be a fitting end to 2008: the dark days of fall and winter, the coming of the ice and snow. Metallica lyrics complement this time of year perfectly. Their powerful vocals and steel-tight drumming are legend. It is easy to see how inspiring it must have been to record the awesome Ride the Lightning album in Copenhagen, Denmark.
Metallica tickets don’t come around too often so we always have to do or die when they are on the line. Grab some Metallica time and relive all the great tunes now. Metallica lyrics have always fascinated me, with their electric resonance and gritty phantasy. There’s nothing like Metallica lyrics. Here are a couple of my faves, beginning with a tune originally named Mechanix in the Dave Mustaine era.
The Four Horsemen (formerly Mechanix)
By the last breath of the fourth winds blow
Better raise your ears
The sound of hooves knocks at your door
Lock up your wife and children now
It’s time to wield the blade
For now you have got some company
The Horsemen are drawing nearer
On the leather steeds they ride
They have come to take your life
On through the dead of night
With the four Horsemen ride
or choose your fate and die
You have been dying since the day
You were born
You know it has all been planned
The quartet of deliverance rides
A sinner once a sinner twice
No need for confession now
Cause now you have got the fight of your life
The Horsemen are drawing nearer
On the leather steeds they ride
They have come to take your life
On through the dead of night
With the four Horsemen ride
or choose your fate and die
Time
has taken its toll on you
The lines that crack your face
Famine
Your body it has torn through
Withered in every place
Pestilence
For what you have had to endure
And what you have put others through
Death
Deliverance for you for sure
There is nothing you can do
So gather round young warriors now
and saddle up your steeds
Killing scores with demon swords
Now is the death of doers of wrong
Swing the judgment hammer down
Safely inside armor blood guts and sweat
The Horsemen are drawing nearer
On the leather steeds they ride
They have come to take your life
On through the dead of night
With the four Horsemen ride
or choose your fate and die
That is one awesome example of Metallica lyrics right there; the images of prehistoric steeds, swords and dark skies. It chills the spine while the guitar and drums send electric pulses right through the central nervous system. D’you really need another excuse to buy Metallica tickets? Another great Metallica song is this one:
Ride The Lightning
Guilty as charged
But damn it, it ain’t right
There is 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!”
chorus:
Flash before my eyes
Now it’s time to die
Burning in my brain
I can feel the flames
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
My fingers grip with fear
What I am doing here?
chorus:
Someone help me
Oh please God help me
They are trying to take it all away
I don’t want to die
Time moving slowly
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 the horrid cream
Freed from the frightening dream
