[Intro]
(Been here before)
(Been here before)
(Been here before)
(Been here before)
(Been here before)
(Been here before)
(Been here before)

[Verse 1]
Been here before, couldn't say I liked it
But do I start writing all this down?
Just let me plug you into my world
Can't you help me be uncrazy?
Name this for me, heat the cold air
Take the chill off of my life
And if I could I'd turn my eyes
To look inside to see what's coming

[Pre-Chorus]
It comes alive, It comes alive, It comes alive
And I die a little more
It comes alive, It comes alive, It comes alive
Each moment here I die a little more
Ooh, I die, I die, I die
A little more

[Chorus 1]
Then the unnamed feeling
It comes alive
Then the unnamed feeling
Takes me away

[Post-Chorus]
(Been here before)
(Been here before)
(Been here before)
(Been here before)
(Been here before)
(Been here before)
(Been here before)

[Verse 2]
I'm frantic in your soothing arms
I can not sleep in this down filled world
Found safety in this loneliness
But I can not stand it anymore
Cross my heart, hope not to die
Swallow evil, ride the sky
Lose myself in a crowded room
You fool, you fool, it will be here soon

[Pre-Chorus]
It comes alive, It comes alive, It comes alive
And I die a little more
It comes alive, It comes alive, It comes alive
Each moment here I die a little more
Ooh, I die, I die, I die
A little more

[Chorus 2]
Then the unnamed feeling
It comes alive
Then the unnamed feeling
Treats me this way

And I wait for this train
Toes over the line
And then the unnamed feeling
It takes me away, it takes me

Then the unnamed feeling
It comes alive, yeah yeah
Then the unnamed feeling
Takes me away, yeah it takes me away

[Bridge]
Get the fuck out of here
I just want to get the fuck away from me
I rage, I glaze, I hurt, I hate
I hate it all, why? Why? Why me?
I cannot sleep with a head like this
I want to cry, I want to scream
I rage, I glaze, I hurt, I hate
I want to hate it all away

[Chorus 3]
Then the unnamed feeling
It comes alive, yeah yeah
Then the unnamed feeling
Treats me this way

Then I wait for this train
My toes are over the line
And then the unnamed feeling
Takes me away, yeah, it takes me away

Then the unnamed feeling
It comes alive
Then the unnamed feeling
Takes me away

Metallica

Like Black Sabbath and Iron Maiden before, Metallica has managed to transcend the genre from which it was originated. To their metal fanbase they are considered one of the Big Four bands of thrash metal, alongside Megadeth, Anthrax and Slayer; however Metallica is also one of the most commercially successful bands in all of rock music, having sold 110 million records including the 16x platinum Metallica, which stands as both the highest selling metal album of all time and most successful album of the past 25 years.

Metallica was formed in 1981 in Los Angeles after drummer Lars Ulrich placed an advert in the classifieds newspaper The Recycler, which was answered by singer/rhythm guitarist James Hetfield. They were soon joined by lead guitarist Dave Mustaine, who later formed Megadeth after being kicked out of the band because of his substance and alchohol abuse, and bassist Ron McGovney, a childhood friend of Hetfield. These two early members were replaced with Cliff Burton (who relocated the band to San Francisco) and ex-Exodus lead guitarist, Kirk Hammett to form the band’s classic line-up.

The band released three albums, 1983’s Kill ‘Em All, 1984’s Ride The Lightning and 1986’s Master of Puppets before the tragic and untimely death of Cliff Burton on September 27th, 1986.
