Welcome to where time stands still

no one leaves and no one will

Moon is full, never seems to change

just labeled mentally deranged



Dream the same thing every night

I see our freedom in my sight

No locked doors, No windows barred

No things to make my brain seem scarred



Sleep my friend and you will see

that dream is my reality

They keep me locked up in this cage

can't they see that's why my brain says Rage, Rage, Rage, Rage, Rage!!



Sanitarium, leave me be

Sanitarium, leave me alone



Build my fear of what's out there

and cannot breathe the open air

Whisper things into my brain

assuring me that I'm insane



They think our heads are in their hands

but violent use brings violent plans

Keep him tied, it makes him well

he's getting better, can't you tell?



No more can they keep us in

Listen, damn it, we will win

They see it right, they see it well

but they think this saves us from our Hell, Hell, Hell, Hell, Hell!!



Sanitarium, leave me be

Sanitarium, leave me alone



Fred Talking:



Are we all happy to here tonight or what?

Well all I know is at a Metallica concert nobody's sitting down.

So everybody in those f**kin seats, stand the f**k up, Get up!!

Get the f**k up!! That's what I'm talking about.

And I want all you people right here on the floor,

who are fortunate enough to be here tonight, to move in pretty close,

come on in, you back there come on in, alright

I wan't you to repeat after me ok.



Leave me alone

Leave me alone

Leave me alone

Leave me alone and I'm about to break the f**k out come on

Leave me alone

Leave me alone

Leave me alone
