Not original lyrics, but a medley of five of my favorite Metallica songs. Might make a crap cut and paste later if I get bored enough, but for now, well, just use the imagination and see if the lyrics flow well. Suggestions for edits are welcome, but I doubt anyone here's a Metallica fan, so yeah.
-Nothing Else Matters-
So close, no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
And nothing else matters
Never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we live it our way
All these words I don't just say
And nothing else matters
Trust I seek, and I find in you
Every day for us something new
Open mind for a different view
And nothing else matters
-No Leaf Clover-
And it feels right this time
On his crash course with the big time
Pay no mind to the distant thunder
New day fills his head with wonder, boy
Says it feels right this time
Turned it 'round and found the right line
Good day to be alive, sir
Good day to be alive, he says
Then it comes to be, that the soothing light at the end of your tunnel
Was just a freight train coming your way
Then it comes to be, that the soothing light at the end of your tunnel
Was just a freight train coming your way
Don't it feel right like this?
All the pieces fall to his wish
Sucker for that quick reward, boy
Sucker for that quick reward, they say
-The Outlaw Torn-
And now I wait my whole lifetime, for you
And now I wait my whole lifetime, for you
I ride the dirt, I ride the tide, for you
I search the outside, search inside, for you
To take back what you left me
I know I'll always burn to be
The one who seeks so I may find
And now I wait my whole lifetime
Outlaw of torn
Outlaw of torn
And I'm torn
-Sad But True-
Hey
I'm your life
I'm the one who takes you there
Hey
I'm your life
I'm the one who cares
They
They betray
I'm your only true friend now
They
They'll betray
I'm forever there
I'm your dream, make you real
I'm your eyes when you must steal
I'm your pain when you can't feel
Sad but true
I'm your dream, mind astray
I'm your eyes while you're away
I'm your pain while you repay
You know it's sad but true
You
You're my mask
You're my cover, my shelter
You
You're my mask
You're the one who's blamed
Do
Do my work
Do my dirty work, scapegoat
Do
Do my deeds
For you're the one who's shamed
-Fade To Black-
Life it seems will fade away
Drifting farther 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
Need the end to set me free
Things not what they used to be
Missing one inside of me
Deathly lost, this can't be real
Cannot stand this hell I feel
Emptiness is filling me
To the point of agony
Growing darkness, taking dawn
I was me but now he's gone
-Nothing Else Matters-
So close, no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
And nothing else matters
Never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we live it our way
All these words I don't just say
And nothing else matters
Trust I seek, and I find in you
Every day for us something new
Open mind for a different view
And nothing else matters
-No Leaf Clover-
And it feels right this time
On his crash course with the big time
Pay no mind to the distant thunder
New day fills his head with wonder, boy
Says it feels right this time
Turned it 'round and found the right line
Good day to be alive, sir
Good day to be alive, he says
Then it comes to be, that the soothing light at the end of your tunnel
Was just a freight train coming your way
Then it comes to be, that the soothing light at the end of your tunnel
Was just a freight train coming your way
Don't it feel right like this?

Sucker for that quick reward, they say
-The Outlaw Torn-
And now I wait my whole lifetime, for you
And now I wait my whole lifetime, for you

I search the outside, search inside, for you
To take back what you left me
I know I'll always burn to be
The one who seeks so I may find
And now I wait my whole lifetime
Outlaw of torn
Outlaw of torn
And I'm torn
-Sad But True-
Hey
I'm your life
I'm the one who takes you there
Hey
I'm your life
I'm the one who cares
They

I'm forever there
