Metallica : Sad But True Lyrics

Songwriters: Hetfield, James Alan; Ulrich, Lars;

. Send "Sad But True" Ringtone to your Cell .

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, they'll betray
I'm forever there

I'm your dream, make you real
I'm your eyes when you must steal
I'm your pain when you can't feel
Sad but true

I'm your dream, mind astray
I'm your eyes while you're away
I'm your pain while you repay
You know it's sad but true, sad but true

You, you're my mask
You're my cover, my shelter
You, you're my mask
You're the one who's 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, make you real
I'm your eyes when you must steal
I'm your pain when you can't feel
Sad but true

I'm your dream, mind astray
I'm your eyes while you're away
I'm your pain while you repay
You know it's sad but true, sad but true

I'm your dreams, I'm your eyes, I'm your pain
I'm your dreams, I'm your eyes, I'm your pain
You know it's sad but true

Hate, I'm your 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, make you real
I'm your eyes when you must steal
I'm your pain when you can't feel
Sad but true

I'm your truth, telling lies
I'm your reasoned alibis
I'm inside, open your eyes
I'm you, sad but true

I would NEVER have started listening to this band (or metal in general) if it wasn't for this song... It inspired a character in my novel and sums him up better than I can do it any concept sketches or description paragraphs. Whenever I needed to write for him I'd turn on this song, and now it gets me inspired to work through the final stages of editing.

The lyrics are just so bluntly poetic and paint such a picture.
