Welcome Home (Sanitarium) - Lyrics by Metallica


Lyrics
Welcome to where time stands stillno one leaves and no one will
Moon is full, never seems to changejust labeled mentally deranged
Dream the same thing every night
I see our freedom in my sight
No locked doors, No windows barred
No things to make my brain seem scarred
Sleep my friend and you will seethat dream is my reality
They keep me locked up in this cagecan't they see it's why my brain says Rage
Sanitarium, leave me be
Sanitarium, just leave me alone
Build my fear of what's out thereand cannot breathe the open air
Whisper things into my brainassuring me that I'm insane
They think our heads are in their handsbut violent use brings violent plans
Keep him tied, it makes him wellhe's getting better, can't you tell?
No more can they keep us in
Listen, damn it, we will win
They see it right, they see it wellbut they think this saves us from our Hell
Sanitarium, leave me be
Sanitarium, just leave me alone
Sanitarium, just leave me alone
Fear of living onnatives getting restless now
Mutiny in the airgot some death to do
Mirror stares back hard
Kill, it's such a friendly wordseems the only wayfor reaching out again.
