Versuri Lou Reed & Metallica – The View lyrics
[Verse 1: Lou Reed]
I am a chorus of the voices
That gather up the magnets, set before me
I attract you and repel you
A science of the heart and blood and meaning
The coldness of most beauties is a challenge that our youth must quickly conquer
There is no time for guilt
Or second guessing, second guessing
Based on feeling
I am the truth, the beauty
That causes you to cross your sacred boundaries
I have no morals, some think me cheap
And someone who despises
The normalcy of heartbreak, the purity of love
But I worship the young and just formed angel
Who sits upon the pin of lust
Everything else bores me
[Pre-Chorus: Lou Reed]
I want to see your suicide
I want to see you give it up
Your life of reason
I want you on the floor
And in a coffin your soul shaking
I want to have you doubting
Every meaning you’ve amassed like a fortune
Oh, throw it away
For worship of someone who actively despises you
For worship of someone who actively despises you
[Chorus: James Hetfield]
I am the root
I am the progress
I’m the aggressor
I am the tablet
These ten stories
[Verse 2: Lou Reed]
Worship, worship
Pain and evil have their place sitting here beside me
I offer them to you as servants
Of the gold that you must give
Pain and evil have their place sitting here beside me
And I will offer them, I offer them to you
As servants of the gold that you must give to me
[Pre-Chorus: Lou Reed]
I want to see your suicide
I want to see you give it up
Give it up, your, your life of reason
I want to see you on the floor
And in a coffin, soul shaking, soul shaking
I want to have you doubting
Every meaning you’ve amassed like a fortune
Like a fortune, throw it away
For worship of someone who actively despises you
Who actively despises you
[Chorus: James Hetfield]
I am the view
I am the table
I am the view, I am the table
I am all this
I am the root
The progress
The aggressor
I am the table
I am the ten stories
I am the table
I am, I am, I am, I am
I am
[Instrumental Outro]
