[Verse 1]
I feel alright, but I'm buried alive
Nothing's healed, just covered by time
I want to pray, but I think I'm possessed
Constant cardiac arrest

[Chorus]
I'm standing in the way again, I can't see the road ahead

[Verse 2]
I have taken too much once a ladder, now a crutch
When all of it is closing in stop fighting and hold your breath
So much self-love, so much hate, fuck these people, fuck this place

[Verse 3]
But to an amateur set of eyes, me and the lord look a lot alike
I might even have a brilliant shine and the strength to make it right
Unbroken, unscarred back ain't weak, hands ain't hard
It's the first night in town, our first night in town

[Guitar Solo]

[Post-Verse]
Rain comes down, bridge goes out, the same way it always did

[Bridge]
Now that I'm yours, discover me
Now that I'm yours, unbury me
Now that I'm yours, amaze me
Go ahead and save me, go ahead
[Chorus]
I'm standing in the way again, I can't see the road ahead

[Verse 4]
Don't take it back, you're all that I have
A new goddess emerged from the mist
And took the blade from my wrist
Don't blink back out, I will aimlessly wander this wasteland

[Outro]
Guided only by a sickness, not a purpose
I can't go back to what I was, Metallica without the drugs
A faith healer without the plant
There's no home for a hollow man
