Shadows Follow

Hanging by a thread as I play dead Hanging by a thread and my mind is code red Cut and run, try to hide Get away, shut my eyes just to hide from the fate Cut and run, try to hide Get away, cover up, get shelter from the hate Demonized, simplified, tranquilized, prophesized Just to hide from life Night and day, led astray, in decay, come what may Not to face that fight Seething, breathing, nightmares grow On I run but still my shadows follow Never can I stop 'cause they hunt me Never can I stop 'cause the beast is hungry Like a wolf on the hunt, stalking prey, closing in No, it won't let me be Like a wolf on the hunt, stalks a prey Any cost, fulfill a destiny Seething, fast breathing, nightmares grow On I run but still my shadows follow On I run but still my shadows follow Cut and run, hide away from fate, cover up Try to hide the hate, like a wolf It will never be closing, wish away, shut my eyes Wish it away Seething, fast breathing, nightmares grow On I run but still my shadows follow Facing my demons, now I know If I run, still my shadows follow I say no, still my shadows follow --- Shadows Follow - Metallica
