Well, it's been awhile since I did one of these. Anyway, this song to this day still is a very popular song. It was featured in Guitar Hero III. One of the pioneers of hard rock and heavy metal, Metallica still goes strong with numerous albums, tours, and a Guitar Hero in the works in their honor, much like Guitar Hero: Aerosmith. So they had a shitty album in "St. Anger," but they bounced back in the music community's good graces with their latest release "Death Magnetic." So yeah, here's one of their best songs in their entire line-up.

Metallica-One

I can't remember anything
Can't tell if this is true or dream
Deep down inside I feel to scream
This terrible silence stops me
Now that the war is through with me
I'm waking up I can not see
That there's not much left of me
Nothing is real but pain now

Hold my breath as I wish for Death
Oh please God, wake Me

Back in the womb its much too real
In pumps life that I must feel
But can't look forward to reveal
Look to the time when I'll live
Fed through the tube that sticks in me
Just like a wartime novelty
Tied to machines that make me be
Cut this life off from me

Hold my breath as I wish for Death
Oh please God, wake Me

Now the world is Gone
I'm just one
Oh God help me
Hold my breath as I wish for Death
OH PLEASE GOD HELP ME!

DARKNESS!
Imprisoning me
All that I see
ABSOLUTE HORROR!
I cannot live
I cannot die
Trapped in myself
BODY MY HOLDING CELL!

LANDMINE!
Has taken my sight
Taken my speech
TAKEN MY HEARING!
Taken my arms
Taken my legs
Taken my soul
LEFT ME WITH LIFE IN HELL!!
