[Verse ~~1: James Hetfield]~~1]
~~Blacked~~
Life ~~out~~it seems to fade away
~~Pop~~Drifting ~~queen,~~further ~~amphetamine~~everyday
~~The~~Getting ~~screams~~lost ~~crashed~~within ~~into~~myself
Nothing ~~silence~~matters no one else
~~Tapped~~I ~~out~~
~~Doused~~have inlost the ~~gasoline~~will to live
~~The~~Simply ~~high~~nothing ~~times~~more ~~going~~to ~~timeless~~give
~~Decadence~~There is nothing more for me
~~Death of~~Need the ~~innocence~~
~~The pathway starts~~end to ~~spiral~~set me free
~~Infamy~~
~~All for publicity~~
~~Destruction going viral~~

[~~Bridge~~Verse 2]
~~Light~~
Things itnot upwhat they used to be
AhMissing ~~light~~one itinside upof me
~~Another~~Deathly ~~hit~~loss ~~erases~~this ~~all~~can't be real
Cannot stand this hell I feel
Emptiness is filling me
To the ~~pain~~point of agony
~~Bulletproof~~Growing darkness taking dawn
~~Ah,~~I ~~kill~~was ~~the truth~~
~~You're falling,~~me but ~~you~~now, ~~think~~he's ~~you're flying high~~
~~High again~~gone

[Chorus]
Sold your soul
Built a higher wall
Yesterday
Now you're thrown away
Same rise and fall
Who cares at all?
Seduced by fame
A moth into the flame

[Verse 2: James Hetfield]
Twisted
Backstabbing wicked
The delusion absolution
Perjure
Fame is the murderer
Seduce you into ruin

[~~Bridge: James Hetfield]~~
~~Light it up~~
~~Ah light it up~~
~~Another hit erases all the pain~~
~~Bulletproof~~
~~Ah, kill the truth~~
~~You're falling, but you think you're flying high~~
~~High again~~

~~[Verse 3: James Hetfield]~~

~~Guarantee your name, you go and kill yourself~~
~~The vultures feast around you still~~
~~Overdose on shame and insecurity~~
~~If one won't do that fistful will~~

~~[solo]~~

[Verse 4: James Hetfield]
Yesterday seems as though it never existed
Death greets me warm, now I will just say goodbye
Goodbye

~~Death scene~~
~~Black hearse the limousine~~
~~A grave filled with seduction~~
~~Vaccine~~
~~Fame does the murdering~~
~~She builds up for destruction~~

~~[Bridge 2]~~
~~Light it up~~
~~Ah light it up~~
~~Another hit erases all the pain~~
~~Bulletproof~~
~~Ah, kill the truth~~
~~You're falling, but you think you're flying high~~
~~High again~~

~~[Chorus]~~
~~Sold your soul~~
~~Built a higher wall~~
~~Yesterday~~
~~Now you're thrown away~~
~~Same rise and fall~~
~~Who cares at all?~~
~~Seduced by fame~~
~~A moth into the flame~~

~~[Chorus: James Hetfield]~~
~~Smile as it burns to the ground~~
~~The perfect don't want you around~~
~~Question yourself, you may learn~~
~~You are the witch, you must burn~~
~~You must burn!~~

~~[Outro: James Hetfield]~~
~~A moth into the flame~~
