Metallica ride the lightning lyrics

Guilty as charged

But damn it, it ain't right

There's someone else controlling me



Death in the air

Strapped in the electric chair

This can't be happening to me



Who made you god to say

"I'll take your life from you!!"



Flash before my eyes

Now it's time to die

Burning in my brain

I can feel the flame



Wait for the sign

To flick the switch of death

It's the beginning of the end



Sweat chilling cold

As I watch death unfold

Consiousness is my only friend



My fingers grip with fear

What am I doing here?



Flash before my eyes

Now it's time to die

Burning in my brain

I can feel the flame



Someone help me

Oh please God help me

They are trying to take it all away

I don't want to die



Time moving slow

The minutes seem like hours

The final curtain all I see



How true is this?

Just get it over with

If this is true, just let it be



Wakened by horrid scream

Freed from this frightening dream



Flash before my eyes

Now it's time to die

Burning in my brain

I can feel the flame
