"Growing darkness taking dawn, I was me but now He's gone." - I think that's such a beautiful lyric and a great way for Jaymz to illustrate the change that has occured in him.
to Metallican41: I think you should think before you type especially on a mesage board full of Metallica fans, because you saying that their lyrics are weak is the most ignorant thing I've heard in a while. Unless you're a 13 year old TRL watching kid and the only Metallica songs you know are the ones they play on the radio and MTV late at night, then I can see why you'd say that their lyrics are not dense. It's easy for someone who doesn't really know Metallica to make that generalization, but in reality Metallica has some of the most thought-provoking and emotion filled lyrics of any recent band, let alone a metal band that fucking rocks.
Everything off ...And Justice For All is packed with great lyrics about the corruption of the US government it's justice system, etc. In addition, songs like Disposable Heroes, Don't Tread On Me, and For Whom The Bell Tolls have distinctly anti-war messages (the true sign of an intelligent man because for a long time I was an ignorant patriotic kid until thing like Metallica, Rage Against the Machine, System of a Down, Carlos Castaneda, Chuck Pahlaniuk, and Joseph Heller allowed me to open my mind). Metallica's songs point out the problems in our world that most people are too ignorant to see, and songs like Fade To Black and One convey emotion like no other band can.
I'm not trying to come down on you hard, but just think and have proof to back up statements such as Metallica not having good lyrics.
