Don’t you leave me, Father Time
Take me with you
Tell me, does your sun still shine?
Come squeeze the world
And drip it down my throat again

Down my throat again, ooh-whoa!

You’ve gotta breathe, man, breathe
Coming up for air!
Breathe, man, breathe
Coming up for…air!

Touch me so I think I’m here
Skin my senses
Barely breathing, Minus Human
Please squeeze the world
And drip it down my throat again

Down my throat again, ooh-whoa-oh!

You’ve gotta breathe, man, breathe
Coming up for air!
Breathe, man, breathe
Coming up for…air!

You’ve gotta breathe, man, breathe
Coming up for air!
Breathe, man, breathe
Coming up for…

Metallica - Minus Human [“studio” version]

(Hmm, you lot love to ride this particular train, especially when it comes to the mighty Metallica)

Hate! Is a train
That thunders aimless through my head
And Hate! Is a flame
Chained to the wheel until I’m dead

Oh! Rage! Is a flame
Creates a touch to boil the seas
And Rage! Is to blame
Forever sorry I will be

And from the darkness I descend
Clenching a torch of sweet revenge…no!

You took away tomorrow, still I stand
I ride into the sorrow, still I stand
You took away tomorrow, still I stand
Straight down into the sorrow, still I stand

Wrath! Is the name
Branding suffer onto you
And Wrath! Takes the shame
And holds me down until it is through

And from a darkness I descend
Clenching a torch of sweet revenge

You took away tomorrow, still I stand
I ride into the sorrow, still I stand
You took away tomorrow, still I stand
I sink into the sorrow, still I stand

And Hate! Is a train
That hungers for the flesh’s call
And Hate! Takes the blame
A beast that never slows at all

And from a darkness I descend
Clenching a torch of sweet revenge
Burst into flame, the bitter end
And shake the gates of Hell again

Yeah, cursed to drown in sorrow

You took away tomorrow, still I stand
I ride into the sorrow, still I stand
You took away tomorrow, still I stand
You left me here with sorrow, still I stand

Oh, still I stand!

(and now And Justice for All has been fully posted)

My life suffocates
Planting the seeds of hate
Have love turned to hate
Trapped far beyond my fate

I give, you take
This life that I forsake
Been cheated of my youth
You turned this lie to truth

Anger, misery
You’ll suffer unto me

Harvester of Sorrow…language of the mad
Harvester of Sorrow

Pure black, looking clear
My work is done soon here
Try getting back to me
Get back what used to be

Drink up, shoot in
Let the beatings begin
Distributor of pain
Your loss becomes my gain

Anger, misery
You’ll suffer unto me

Harvester of Sorrow…language of the mad
Harvester of Sorrow

All have said their prayers
Invade their nightmares
To see into my eyes
You’ll find where murder lies

Infanticide…

Harvester of Sorrow…language of the mad
Harvester of Sorrow…language of the mad
Harvester of Sorrow…
Harvester of Sorrow…
Harvester of Sorrow…
Harvester of Sorrow…
Harvester of Sorrow…

Open doors so I walk inside
Close my eyes find my place to hide
And I shake as I take it in
Let the show begin

Open my eyes…Just to have them close again
Well on my way…On my way to where I graze
It swallows me…As it takes me in its fold
I twist away…As I kill this world

Open doors so I walk inside
Close my eyes find my place to hide
And I shake as I take it in
Let the show begin

Open my eyes…just to have them close once again
Don’t want control…as it takes me down and down and down again
Is that the moon…or just a light that lights this dead end street?
Is that you there…or just another demon that I meet?

The higher you are, the farther you fall
The longer the walk, the farther you crawl
My body my temple, this temple, it tilts
Step into the house that Jack built

The higher you are, the farther you fall
The longer the walk, the farther you crawl
My body my temple, this temple, it tilts
Yes, this is the house that Jack built

Open doors as I walk inside
Swallow me so the pain subsides
And I shake as I take this in
Let the show begin

The higher you are, the farther you fall
The longer the walk, the farther you crawl
My body my temple, this temple, it tilts
Yes, this is the house that Jack built

The higher you are, the farther you fall
The longer the walk, the farther you crawl
My body my temple, this temple, it tilts
Yes I am! I am! I am!

Open my eyes…
It swallows me…
Is that you there…
I twist away…

Away!
Away! Yeah!
Away!

Invisible Kid
Never see what he did
Got stuck where he hid
Fallen through the grid

Invisible Kid
Got a place of his own
Where he’ll never be known
Inward he’s grown

Invisible Kid
Never see what he did
Got stuck where he hid
Fallen through the grid

Invisible Kid
Got a place of his own
Where he’ll never be known
Inward he’s grown

Invisible Kid
Locked away in his brain
From the shame and the pain
World down the drain

Invisible Kid
Suspicious of your touch
Don’t want no crutch
But it’s all too much

Invisible Kid
Locked away in his brain
From the shame and the pain
World down the drain

Invisible Kid
Suspicious of your touch
Don’t want no crutch
But it’s all too much, yeah

I hide inside
I hurt inside
I hide inside
But I’ll show you

I’m okay, just go away
Into distance let me fade
I’m okay, just go away
I’m okay, but please, don’t stray too far

Open your heart
I’m beating right here
Open your mind
I’m being right here…right now!

Open your heart
I’m beating right here
Open your mind
I’m being right here…right now!

Oh! What a good boy you are
Out of the way and you kept to yourself
Oh! Can’t you see he’s not here?
He doesn’t want the attention you give

Oh-oh! Unplugging from it all
Invisible Kid floats alone in his room
Oh! What a quiet boy you are
He looks so calm, floating ‘round and around in himself

Invisible Kid
Locked away in his brain
From the shame and the pain
World down the drain

Invisible Kid
Suspicious of your touch
He don’t want no crutch
But it’s all too much
