Metallica - One (Rare) Lyrics
The cerebrum has suffered massive and reparable damageYou never know what has happened to himIf I have not been sure of this, I would not have permitted him to liveWhere am I? Father, what happened? I need helpWhat is democracy? What is democracy?It got something to do with young men killing each other, ArthurWhat if its my turn, will you want me to go?For democracy, any man would give his only begotten sonIt is impossible for any severed individual to experience painPleasure, memory, dream or thought of any kindThis young man will be as unfeeling as unthinking as the deadUntil the day joins themI don't know weather I'm alive or dreaming or dead or rememberingHow can you tell what's a dream and what's realWhen you can't even tell when your awake and when your asleepWhere am I?I can't remember anythingCan't tell if this is true or dreamDeep down inside I feel to screamThis terrible silence stops with meNow that the war is through with meI'm waking up, I cannot seeThat there's not much left of meNothing is real but pain nowHold my breath as I wish for deathOh, please God, wake meThey kept my head and chopped off everythingOh, God, please make them hear meThey won't listen, they wont hear meThey got to wake me up Ill be like this for years, hear meBack in the womb it's much too realIn pumps life that I must feelBut can't look forward to revealLook to the time when I'll liveFed through the tube that sticks in meJust like a wartime noveltyTied to machines that make me beCut this life off from meHold my breath as I wish for deathOh, please God, wake meIt's like a piece of me
