Until It Sleeps

Metallica

Album: Load



Where do I take this pain of mine

I run but it stays right by my side

So tear me open, pour me out

The things inside that scream and shout

And the pain still hates me, so hold me until it sleeps



Just like a curse, just like a stray

You feed it once and now it stays

How it stays



2-So tear me open, but beware

The things inside without a care

And the dirt still stains me

So wash me until I'm clean



1-It grips you solely, it stains you solely

It hates you solely, it holds you solely

Until it sleeps...



So tell me why you've choosen me

Don't want your grip, don't want your greed

Don't want it

Tear me open, make you gone, no more can you hurt anyone

And the fear still shakes me, so hold me until it sleeps

(repeat 1)



I don't want it...NO



(rpt 2)

Tear me open, make you gone

No longer will you hurt anyone

And the hate still shakes me, so hold me up

until it sleeps

Until it sleeps...
