LYRICS
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
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
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
Death greets me warm, now I will just say goodbye

The hi-hats have sounded so horrible in these live releases
4:44 James is God
The greatest band in the history of music! 🤘
Who is metallica? They don't sound too bad at all.
METALLICA ES LA LUZ
Why can't Kirk play the solo to studio version
🎸✌️🎸✌️
This is number one Metallica song for me , what a masterpiece
Ok we need a new album don't you think? Just saying it's been a long while
Lars been reading comments, lmao.
The music of my life! There is nothing more perfect and beautiful!
Obrigado, Metallica.
awesome seeing Greenie being played, what good is an axe if its stuck away in a case in a room or behind glass in some hotel
yeah
That last solo from kirk was nonsense as usual
I was there and it was mind blowing!!!
I was there 1988
Thank you Metallica, forever ❤

RocknRoll ⚡ Eternal
This is how I felt when my dog got put down.
Beautiful, I love this one. ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
When I was a teen, I had a lot of mental health struggles. I was 15 and planned to delete myself that night, and tried but I stopped myself almost too late. The reason is that I had this song playing in the background. Listening to the lyrics showed me that I’m not the only person that had problems, and I can carry on. The ambiguity of the ending became a positive one for me. I’m 43 now with a beautiful family, and I’m grateful.
I still struggle, because it never leaves, but I get through each day at a time.
Hang in there everyone, and thank you Metallica.
Badass
Unpopular opinion but I'd love to see James play Fade To Black fully with an electric guitar , no acoustic. I really enjoyed the tone he had when he played it like that (1995-2009) . Love this song to hell and back!
Que apropiado
BEST BAND IN THE WORLD‼️🤟🏽❤️
solo??
if your watching in the futcher tell meeeeeee
Im dreaming of your concert in Kyiv ! Victory will de ours !🤘
