Sad But True

Metallica


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

The'll betray

I'm forever there

 

I'm your dream, nake you real

I'm your eyes when you must steal

I'm your pain when can't feel

SAD BUT TRUE

I'm you're dream, mind astray

I'm your eyes while your 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 whose blamed

Do

Do my work

Do my dirty work, Scapegoat

Do

Do my deeds

For you're the one who's shamed

 

I'm your dream, nake you real

I'm your eyes when you must steal

I'm your pain when can't feel

SAD BUT TRUE

I'm you're dream, mind astray

I'm your eyes while your away

I'm your pain while you repay

You know it's SAD BUT TRUE


Hate

I'm you're hate

I'm your hate when you want love

Pay

Pay the price

Pay, for nothing's fair

Hey

I'm your life

I'm the one who took you there

Hey

I'm your life

And I no longer care

 

I'm your dream, nake you real

I'm your eyes when you must steal

I'm your pain when can't feel

SAD BUT TRUE

I'm your truth telling lies

I'm your reason alibies

I'm inside open your eyes

I'm you

SAD BUT TRUE
