Lux Æterna
Metallica
3:22In a mirrored room All alone I stand Strip away the phantom fame Exposing my sides to see The good and bad in me In a mirrored room All alone I stand Seeing past the flesh and bone The shame and the fear I hide Could I show you what's inside? Would you criticize, scrutinize Stigmatize my pain? Would you summarize, patronize Classify insane? So I stand here before you You might judge You might just bury me Or you might set me free In a mirrored room Talking to myself And the voice is pushing back I'll let you inside my heart But don't tear it all apart In a mirrored room Just a simple man Naked, broken, beat and scarred What do I mean? Oh That fear of letting go Would you criticize, scrutinize Analyze my pain? Would you summarize, patronize Classify insane? So I stand here before you You might judge You might just bury me Or you might set me Or you might set me free Would you criticize, scrutinize Ostracize my pain? Would you summarize, patronize Classify insane? So I stand here before you You might judge You might just bury me Or you might set me Oh, please, won't you set me free? Yeah, yeah
