Metallica - Hi Guy lyrics

Like a siren in my head and there is No emergency Like a blind man that is strapped into the speeding driver's seat Like a face That learns to speak When all it knew was how to bite Like a hurt that keeps me focused Though I think I've gone astray Like a low grade nightmare that I must awaken from each day Like a dream A beautiful dream Not worthy of, so I deny...... Yeah You close your eyes and try to wish it all into place You never open them, so it pa**ed you by You close your eyes, so you may never fall from grace You open just in time to say goodbye, oh Almost like your life Almost like your endless fight Struggling along Balancing in right and wrong Why is this so hard? Always pull the joker card Almost like your fight And there it went Almost like your life Like a wound that keeps on bleeding to remind me not to think Like a (?) I'm being covered till It's time to drink Like a puzzle With missing pieces And the box is thrown away Like a release from a prison That you didn't know you're in Like a fight to live the past I prayed To leave From way back then Like a general Without a mission Until the war will start again...... You close your eyes and try to wish it all into place You never open them, so it pa**ed you by You close your eyes, so you may never fall from grace You open just in time to say goodbye, oh Almost like your life Almost like your endless fight Struggling along Balancing in right and wrong Why is this so hard? Always pull the joker card Almost like your fight And there it went Almost like your life Yeah Oh, yeah Oh, yeah Like a touch from hell to feel how hot That it can get if you get caught Like a touch from heaven on this breeze That brings you straight down to your knees Like a touch from hell to feel how hot That it can get if you get caught Like a touch from heaven on this breeze That brings you straight down to your knees Oh, yeah Yeah, yeah Yeah Almost like your life Almost like your endless fight Struggling along Balancing in right and wrong Why is this so hard? Always pull the joker card Almost like your fight And there it went Almost like your life That was just your life
