Until It Sleeps
                      --- Metallica

Where do I take this pain of mine?

I run, but it stays right by my side

So tear me open, pour me out

There’s things inside that scream and shout

And the pain still hates me

So hold me until it sleeps

Just like the curse, just like the stray

You feed it once and now it stays

Now it stays

So tear me open but beware

There’s things inside without a care

And the dirt still stains me

So wash me until I’m clean

It grips you, so hold me

It stains you, so hold me

It hates you, so hold me

It holds you, so hold me

Until it sleeps

So tell me why you’ve chosen me

Don’t want your grip

Don’t want your greed

Don’t want it

I’ll tear me open, make you gone

No more can you hurt anyone

And the fear still shakes me

So hold me until it sleeps

It grips you, so hold me

It stains you, so hold me

It hates you, so hold me

It holds you, holds you, holds you

Until it sleeps

I don’t want it

So tear me open but beware

There’s things inside without a care

And the dirt still stains me

So wash me... till clean

I’ll tear me open, make you gone

No longer will you hurt anyone

And the hate still shapes me

So hold me until it sleeps

Until it sleeps.
