Welcome once again to Music Monday where I offer you all a song that I really like. If anyone wants to join in then please feel free to have a go! 🙂
Metallica: The Unforgiven II.
Lay beside me and tell me what they’ve done
And speak the words I wanna hear to make my demons run
The door is locked now but it’s open if you’re true
If you can understand the me then I can understand the youLay beside me, under wicked sky
Through black of day, dark of night, we share this, paralyzed
The door cracks open but there’s no sun shining through
Black heart scarring darker still but there’s no sun shining through
No there’s no sun shining through, no there’s no sun shiningWhat I’ve felt, what I’ve known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you?Yeah, what I’ve felt, what I’ve known
Sick and tired, I stand alone
Could you be there
‘Cause I’m the one who waits for you
Or are you unforgiven too?Come lay beside me, this won’t hurt I swear
She loves me not, she loves me still but she’ll never love again
She lay beside me but she’ll be there when I’m gone
Black hearts scarring darker still, yes she’ll be there when I’m gone
Yes she’ll be there when I’m gone, dead sure she’ll be there?What I’ve felt, what I’ve known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you?Yeah, what I’ve felt, what I’ve known
Sick and tired, I stand alone
Could you be there
‘Cause I’m the one who waits for you
Or are you unforgiven too?Lay beside me, tell me what I’ve done
The door is closed so are your eyes
But now I see the sun, now I see the sun
Yes now I see itWhat I’ve felt, what I’ve known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for youYeah, what I’ve felt, what I’ve known
So sick and tired, I stand alone
Could you be there
‘Cause I’m the one who waits
The one who waits for youOh, what I’ve felt, what I’ve known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you? (so I dub thee unforgiven)Oh, what I’ve felt
Oh, what I’ve known
I’ll take this key and I’ll bury it in you
Because you’re unforgiven tooNever free, never me
‘Cause you’re unforgiven too, oh oh

I love Metallica. I spend much of my childhood listening to their first albums because of my older brother’s love for them. Good times. ❤ Thanks for sharing this one, Drew. 🙂

I love this one! And metallica in general. Not their new stuff though – last album was disappointing 😦

Yeah, it wasn’t that bad but it wasn’t as good as expected or hoped for either.

I absolutely love lyrics like these. I could dissect them for hours, so existential. My favorite kind of poetry.
