Ride the Lightning Lyrics
Artist(Band):Metallica
Review The Song (46)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

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!!!!!



Look it's me, the guy who submitted these lyrics | Reviewer: Dillon Joiner | 7/11/09

Hey son of a metal lover, first of all this song's about a guy in an electric chair. Wow, what a deep meaning. Bullshit. This song has just as little meaning as Enter Sandman. Now, Master of Puppets, Disposable Heroes, and One, among others, do have deep meaning. Finally, you are absolutely correct about songs on Black having no meaning, but Load & Reload have more deep, meaningful lyrics than you can shake a stick at. Listen to Outlaw Torn. If you have a soul, it will send shivers down your spine.



Death Magnetic | Reviewer: Anonymous | 7/11/09

Well you have to understand the older people get the more calm they get...metallica is getting old so they aren't realy into all the heavy and crazy attention like they did back then... so lay off metallicas balls and enjoy there music...it may not be as crazy and die die type music as before...but they did have great best old music and u gotta say they were the best at crazy songs and no one today is gonna top any of there old songs...they left there legend mark on music of metal...if anyone is gonna talk shit about sum band that is sorry talk about the fagot brothers..in means I mean joNas brothers
