Cyanide Lyrics By Metallica

    sleep and dream of this
    death angel’s kiss
    brings final bliss
    come believe me

    pre
    empty they say
    death won’t you let me stay
    empty they say
    death hear me call your name
    oh call your name

    suicide i’ve already died
    you’re just the funeral i’ve been waiting for
    cyanide living dead inside
    break this empty shell forevermore

    wait wait patiently
    your deathblack wings
    unfolding sleep
    spreading o’er me

    pre
    empty they say
    death won’t you let me stay
    empty they say
    death hear me call your name
    oh call your name

    suicide i’ve already died
    it’s just the funeral i’ve been waiting for
    cyanide living dead inside
    break this empty shell forevermore

    say is that rain or are they tears
    that stained your concrete face for years
    the crying weeping shedding strife
    year after year life after life

    an air of freshly broken ground
    a concrete angel laid right down
    upon the grave which swallows fast
    it’s peace at last
    o peace at last

    pre
    empty they say
    death won’t you let me stay
    empty they say
    death hear me call your name
    call your name

    suicide i’ve already died
    you’re just the funeral i’ve been waiting for
    cyanide living dead inside
    break this empty shell forevermore

    forevermore
    forevermore
    it’s just the funeral i’ve been waiting for
