Songtexte Fade To Black - Live At The Hollywood Palladium, Los Angeles, CA / March 10th, 1985 - Metallica

We're gonna slow it down a little bit
This ones called, "Fade to Black"

Life, it seems, will fade away
Drifting further every day
Getting lost within myself
Nothing matters, no one else
I have lost the will to live
Simply nothing more to give
There is nothing more for me
I need the end to set me free

Things not what they used to be
I'm missing one inside of me
Growing darkness taking dawn
Never felt it ever resolved
Emptiness is filling me
To the point of agony
Growing darkness taking dawn
I was me, but now he's gone

No one but me can save myself, but it's too late
Now I can't think, think why I should even try

Yesterday seems as though it never existed
But death greets me warm, now I will just say goodbye
Goodbye!

Alright
Was "Fade to Black", if you did not know
Well, well
It's gettin' kinda fuckin' quiet out there
And, uh, we really hate that shit!
Do you know how to make some fuckin' noise or what?
Well, there's the L.A. I know!
