Fade to Black - meaning Track number four on Metallica's 1984 album 'Ride The Lightning'.
A depressing song about suicide/stolen guitar amplifiers.
Life it seems, will fade away
Drifting further every day
Getting lost within myself
Nothing matters no one else
I have lost the will to live
Simply nothing more to give
There is nothing more for me
Need the end to set me free
Things are not what they used to be
Missing one inside of me
Deathly lost, this canβt be real
Cannot stand this hell I feel
Emptiness is filling me
To the point of agony
Growing darkness taking dawn
I was me, but now heβs gone
No one but me can save myself, but itβs too late
Now I canβt think, think why I should even try
Yesterday seems as though it never existed
Death greets me warm, now I will just say good-bye
