The Outlaw Torn (Live) - Metallica

And now I wait my whole lifetime for you And now I wait my whole lifetime for you I ride the dirt, I ride the tide for you I search the outside, search inside for you To take back what you left me You know I'll always burn to be The one who seeks so I may find To wanna wait my whole lifetime I'm outlaw torn I'm outlaw torn I'm outlaw torn And I'm torn So on I wait my whole lifetime for you So on I wait my whole lifetime for you The more I search, the more my need for you The more I bless, the more I bleed for you You make me smash the clock and feel I'd rather die behind the wheel Time was never on my side So on I wait my whole lifetime From outlaw torn I'm outlaw I'm outlaw torn And I'm torn (Hear me!) And if I close my mind in fear Please pry it open (See me!) And if my face becomes sincere Beware, yeah! (Hold me!) And when I start to come undone Stitch me together (Save me!) And if you see me strut Remind me of what left this outlaw torn (Hear me!) And if I close my mind in fear Please pry it open (See me!) And if my face becomes sincere Beware, yeah! (Hold me!) And if I start to come undone Stitch me together (Save me!) And if you see me strut Remind me of what left this outlaw torn

I'm a stranger in town and my guns never cold I'm a gambler so bet on your life You'll never live to grow old I deal in lead I won't step aside Where trouble's waitin well so am I I live for the fight the thrill of the kill Paid in gold for the blood I spill Outlaw outlaw outlaw ride Into the West a gun by your side Hell and glory honor and pride A gun will decide where the outlaws ride The law of the West was the law of the gun Shoot and be fast live on the run Stay alive be fast on the draw Live by the gun or die by the law Outlaw outlaw outlaw ride Into the West a gun by your side Hell and glory honor and pride A gun will decide where the outlaws ride Shot through the heart in the blink of an eye Buried up on boot hill Life is cheap when the bounty is high So be ready to kill The law of the West was the law of the gun Shoot and be fast live on the run Stay alive be fast on the draw Live by the gun or die by the law Shot of whisky I'll be on my way Back in the saddle pull on the reins Spurs to the beast over the hill Another town one more kill Outlaw outlaw outlaw ride Into the West a gun by your side Hell and glory honor and pride A gun will decide where the outlaws ride

To a man faced with death The reserve note is key No solution in sight It all falls on me What's a man to do It's either death or it's greed Watch the innocent suffer Watch the innocent bleed Life on your back Not a single fighting chance It's all set and planned So with the devil I shall dance Time's rendered dry So completion comes first Nothing difficult Leave every witness in the dirt I pound my head against the wall Trying so hard to please them all Preservation instinct And the will to survive Idealistic visions Keep the last hope alive Let's not sensationalize Desperate measures for desperate times If all else fails Maybe I'll still have relief You can catch me in the headlines Morals and empathy killed the thief At the end of the day If you show them your trust They'll show your back a blade Simple, good intentions Are paving the way Maybe hell ain't so bad Now that home is a fucking cage
