Asleep at the wheel

Throw all your bullets in the fire

And run like hell

Why cure the fever?

And they plan to pick you clean

It's nice to see you here

Fixxxer

Dolls of voodoo all stuck with pins

One for each of us and our sins

So you lay us in a line

Push your pins they make us humble

Only you can tell in time

If we fall or mearly stumble

But tell me

Can you heal what father's done?

Or fix this hole in mother's son?

Can you heal the broken worlds within?

Can you strip away so we may start again?

Tell me

Can you heal what father's done?

Or cut this rope and let us run?

Just when all seems fine

And I'm pain free

You jab another pin

Jab another pin in me

Mirror, mirror upon the wall

Break the spell or become the doll

See you sharpening the pins

So the holes will remind us

We're just the toys in the hands of another

And in time, the needles turn from shine to rust

But tell me

Can you heal what father's done?

Or fix this hole in mother's son?

Can you heal the broken worlds within?

Can you strip away so we may start again?

Tell me

Can you heal what father's done?

Or cut this rope and let us run?

Just when all seems fine

And I'm pain free

You jab another pin

Jab another pin in me

Jab it

Here come the pins

Blood for face

Sweat for dirt

Three X's for the stone

To break this curse

A ritual's due

I believe I'm not alone

Shell of shotgun

Pint of gin

Numb us up to shield the pins

Renew our faith

Which way we can

To fall in love with life again

To fall in love with life again

To fall in love with life again

To fall in love

To fall in love

To fall in love with life again

So tell me

Can you heal what father's done?

Or fix this hole in mother's son?

Can you heal the broken worlds within?

Can you strip away so we may start again?

Tell me

Can you heal what father's done?

Or cut this rope and let us run?

Just when all seems fine

And I'm pain free

You jab another pin

Jab another pin in me

No more pins in me

No more, no more pins in me

No more, no more pins in me

No more, no more, no more

No, no, no

Low Man's Lyric

My eyes seek reality

My fingers seek my veins

Theres a dog at your back step

He must come in from the rain

I fall cause I let go

The net below has rot away

So my eyes seek reality

And my fingers seek my veins

The trash fire is warm

But nowhere safe from the storm

And I can't bare to see

What I've let me be

So wicked and worn

So as I write to you

Of what is done and to do

Maybe you'll understand

And won't cry for this man

'Cause low man is due

Please forgive me

My eyes seek reality

My fingers feel for faith

Touch clean with a dirty hand

I touched the clean to the waste

The trash fire is warm

But nowhere safe from the storm

And I can't bare to see

What I've let me be

So wicked and worn

So as I write to you

Of what is done and to do

Maybe you'll understand

And won't cry for this man

'Cause low man is due

Please forgive me

Please forgive me

Please forgive me

So low the sky is all I see

All I want from you is forgive me

So you bring this poor dog in from the rain

Though he just wants right back out again

And I cry, to the alley way

Confess all to the rain

But I lie, lie straight to the mirror

The one I've broken, to match my face

The trash fire is warm

But nowhere safe from the storm

And I can't bare to see

What I've let me be

So wicked and worn

So as I write to you (yeah)

Of what is done and to do (yeah)

Maybe you'll understand

And won't cry for this man

'Cause low man is due

Please forgive me

Please forgive me

So low the sky is all I see

All I want from you is forgive me

So you bring this poor dog in from the rain

Though he just wants right back out again

My eyes seek reality

My fingers seek my veins

The Memory Remains
 (Hetfield, Ulrich)

Fortune, fame

Mirror vain

Gone insane

But the memory remains

Heavy rings on fingers wave

Another star denies the grave

See the nowhere crowd, cry the nowhere tears of honor

Like twisted vines that grow

That hide and swallow mansions whole

And dim the light of an already faded prima donna

Fortune, fame

Mirror vain

Gone insane...

Fortune, fame

Mirror vain

Gone insane...

But the memory remains

Heavy rings hold cigarettes

Up to lips that time forgets

While the Hollywood sun sets behind your back

And can't the band play on?

Just listen, they play my song

Ash to ash

Dust to dust

Fade to black

Fortune, fame

Mirror vain

Gone insane...

Fortune, fame

Mirror vain

Gone insane...

Dance little tin goddess

na-na-na

Drift away

Fade away

Little tin goddess

Ash to ash

Dust to dust

Fade to black

Fortune, fame

Mirror vain

Gone insane...

Fortune, fame

Mirror vain

Gone insane...

But the memory remains

Ash to ash

Dust to dust

Fade to black...

But the memory remains

Yeah

Faded prima donna yeah, yeah

(solo)

Dance little tin goddess dance

Prince Charming

It's a black cloud over head

That's me

And the poison ivy chokes the tree

Again it's me

I'm the filthy one on Bourbon Street

You walk on by

I'm the little boy that pushes hard

And makes him cry

There's a dirty needle in your child

Ha ha, stick me

An empty bottles still in hand still dead

Still me

I'm the suit and tie that bleeds the street

And still wants more

I'm the 45 that's in your mouth

I'm a dirty, dirty whore

Yeah look it's me

The one who can't be free

Much too young to focus

But to old to see

Hey look it's me

What no one wants to see

See what you brought this world

Just what you want you want to see

Hey ma, hey ma look it's me

Yeah, he wants to become father now

Me again me

The marks inside your arms, spell me

Spell only me

I'm a nothing face that plants the bomb

And stroles away

I'm the one who doesn't look quite right

As children play

Yeah look it's me

The one who can't be free

Much too young to focus

But to old to see

Hey look it's me

What no one wants to see

See what you brought this world

Just what you want you want to see

Hey ma, hey ma look it's me

What to be and what to fear

Look up to me

Look it's me, at what you hear

See right through me

See the one who can't be free

See right through me

Look it's me what no one wants to see

Hmmm, now, see the black cloud up ahead

And this poison ivy chokes the tree

Again it's me

And I'm the filthy one on Bourbon Street

You walk on by

Makes him cry
