ride the lightning şarkı sözü

guilty as charged
but damn it, it ain´t right
there is 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!"

chorus:
flash before my eyes
now it´s time to die
burning in my brain
i can feel the flames

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 i am doing here?

chorus:

someone help me
oh please god help me
they are trying to take it all away
i don´t want to die

time moving slowly
the minutes seem like hours
the final curtain call i see

how true is this?
just get it over with
if this is true, just let it be

wakened by the horrid scream
freed from the frightening dream

(chorus)
