In My Darkest Hour - [1988] (In memory of Cliff Burton)
In my hour of need Ha you're not there And though I reached out for you Wouldn't lend a hand
Through the darkest hour Grace did not shine on me It feels so cold, very cold No one cares for me
Did you ever think I get lonely Did you ever think that I needed love Did you ever think to stop thinking You're the only one that I'm thinking of
You'll never know how hard I tried To find my space and satisfy you too
Things will be better when I'm dead and gone Don't try to understand, knowing you I'm probably wrong
But oh how I lived my life for you Still you'd turn away Now as I die for you My flesh still crawls as I breathe your name All these years I thought I was wrong Now I know it was you Raise your head raise your face your eyes Tell me who you think you are, who?
I walk, I walk alone Into the promised land There's a better place for me But it's far, far away Everlasting life for me In a perfect world But I gotta die first Please God send me on my way
Time has a way of taking time Loneliness is not only felt by fools Alone I call to ease the pain Yearning to be held by you, alone, so alone, I'm lost Consumed by the pain The pain, the pain, the pain
Won't you hold me again You just laughed, ha, ha, bitch My whole life is work built on the past But the time has come when all things shall pass This good thing passed away
