Ride the Lightning Lyrics
Artist(Band):Metallica
Review The Song (48)Print the Lyrics
Guilty as charged
But damn it, it ain't right
There's someone else controlling me
Death in the air
Strapped in the electric chair
This can't be happening to me

Who made you God to say?,
I'll take your life from you

Flash before my eyes
Now it's time to die
Burning in my brain
I can feel the flame

Wait for the sign
To flick the switch of death
It's the beginning of the end
Sweat, chilling cold
As I watch death unfold
Consciousness my only friend

My fingers grip with fear
What am I doing here?

Flash before my eyes
Now it's time to die
Burning in my brain
I can feel the flame


Someone help me
Oh please, God help me
They're trying to take it all away
I don't want to die

(SOLO)

Someone help me
Oh please, God help me
They are trying to take it all away
I don`t want to die

Time moving slow
The minutes seem like hours
The final curtain call I see
Im through with this
Just get it over with
If this is true, just let it be

Wakened by a horrid scream
Freed from this frightening dream

Flash before my eyes
Now it's time to die
Burning in my brain
I can feel the flame

Review about Ride the Lightning

oohhh!!!!! | Reviewer: yeah!!!!! | 11/30/09

I personally love this song.....but i don't often listen to the full song. I only listen to the solo. The solo is a masterpiece.
I wonder why it wasn't included in the 100 greatest guitar solos list.
Never mind my personal fav album is the black album. I can listen to all of them for the whole day and yet wont tire. I dont care about the lyrics if the music is awesome.



kick ass | Reviewer: manny P. | 11/20/09

this song has a meaning to it but it isnt as meaningful as master of puppets or one because they are about real life issues like durgs and real time war. and to say the truth im sick of rap i live in harlem and all i hear is lil wayne and i hate him!!! ugh i know im the only rocker here without a doubt.lol and to the people that say metallica getting old it doesnt mean that they still aint rocking cuz death magnetic was another kick ass album and they are all over 50 (i think)lol



METALLICA-gods of metal | Reviewer: vivek | 10/13/09

If we talk bout thrash metal then metallica is the only name which satisfies the suit.I live in india and ders a limited access to metal music.still it cant get brutal n better wen u r a metallica head!!!



for past reviews and stuff | Reviewer: marcop | 10/4/09

really cool song and big solo!
old Metallica was really really awesome, master of puppets rulz and past albums, with no exception of And.. justice for all (even it doesn't have bass) and i think death magnetic is greatly heavy and a little thrashy, comparing with the 90's and 2000's albums, which suck a little(coz metallica is always cool)



my perspective | Reviewer: Anonymous | 9/8/09

ah well, ride the lightning, awesome album, im fully into metallica but i prefer all the older stuff, everything before the black album was superb, not to say that load etc. wasn't good, it wasn't as good as say kill em all and ride the lightning, the music was raw as fuck and the tempo was perfect which was why they deserve the top prize of the best metal/rock band of all time!



Metallica f---kin rocks! | Reviewer: Mackie | 9/8/09

Metallica is a sick band, personally one of my favorties. This song is bad-ass as is. But I agree with the one guy...Master of Puppets is prolly their greatest album. But mind you, I have them all, and like them all. I think master of puppets is their best album, but some of my favortie songs arn't even on that album.



Metallica is indeed old | Reviewer: Anonymous | 8/30/09

well of course they're slightly older than the other artists out there, but in my opinion, they're better than most of the stuff they put out i mean i admit i like DragonForce, and i'll also admit that i like some rap like Insane Clown Posse, but still metallica has proven themselves over the years many times over, besides they're still doing well for lasting since 1981. My favorite album would have to be master of puppets, its the best one ive listened to and i have their entire collection, but i like other songs by them



Metallica forever | Reviewer: Anonymous | 8/16/09

I think that metallica is the best band ever and all those guys who like rap are crackheads and retards who can listen to that crap, metallica has meaning in every song. They will really get your mind thinking about the true meaning of their music. Keep rocking metallica. Metallica forever!!!!!



Metallica | Reviewer: Anonymous | 7/30/09

This is an awesome song, one of the best song ever. Even if Metallica is older now, Death Magnetic is a very good album and i think metallica is the best band ever. Their are still doing good songs, but they can't be like before because of their age.

In my opinion I think the album Ride the Lightning was the best in all.



metallica is the best, fuck wat everyone else says! | Reviewer: Anonymous | 7/27/09

look, the basic thing is, metallica rocks harder than almost any other band on earth, and all these rappers nowadays can get over it. i can only think of one other band that i like better than metallica, but if i say it, every metal fan will prob jump down my throat and say they suck. so, im gonna say it anyway. i think the best band of all time was...AEROSMITH!!! there, i said it, now say watever u want, i dont care wat anyone thinks.

and all the rappers and rap fans need to get a life. rap has no meaning. i used to listen to rap before i realized i was listening to people talk about sex, drugs, and money. then i heard "St. Anger" on the radio one day, and i was hooked on Metallica and all their music since. my fave song of all time is 'Ride the Lightning'. i LOVE it, i listen to it every day, along with 'Battery', 'St. Anger', 'Am I Evil', and so much more!!! I LOVE METALLICA!!!! W0000000000000000!!!!!
