Metallica - Master Of Puppets Lyrics

Artist: Metallica

Album: Master Of Puppets

  • Songwriters: Clifford Lee Burton, Kirk L Hammett, James Alan Hetfield, Lars Ulrich

End of passion play, crumbling away
I'm your source of self-destruction
Veins that pump with fear, it's sucking darkest clear
Leading on your deaths' construction

Taste me, you will see
More is all you need
Dedicated to
How I'm killing you

Come crawling faster
Obey your master
Your life burns faster
Obey your master, master

Master of puppets, pulling your strings
Twisting your mind, smashing your dreams
Blinded by me, you can't see a thing
Just call my name, I'll hear you scream
Master, master
Just call my name, I'll hear you scream
Master, master

Needlework the way, never you betray
Life of death becoming clearer
Pain monopoly, ritual misery
Chop your breakfast on a mirror

Taste me, you will see
More, that's all you need
Dedicated to
How I'm fucking you

Come crawling faster
Obey your master
Your life burns faster
Obey your master, master

Master of puppets, pulling your strings
Twisting your mind, smashing your dreams
Blinded by me, you can't see a thing
Just call my name, I'll hear you scream
Master, master
Just call my name, I'll hear you scream
Master, master, master

Master, master
Where's those dreams that I've been after?
Master, master
Promised only lies

Laughter, laughter
All I hear or see is laughter
Laughter, laughter
Laughing at my cries, fix me, baby

Hell is worth all that, natural habitat
Just a rhyme without a reason
Never ending maze, drift on numbered days
Now your life is out of season

I will occupy
I will help you die
I will run through you
Now I rule you too

Come crawling faster
Obey your master
Your life burns faster
Obey your master, master

Master of puppets, pulling your strings
Twisting your mind, smashing your dreams, baby
Blinded by me, you can't see a thing
Just call my name, I'll hear you scream
Master, master
Just call my name, I'll hear you scream
Master, master

    The Master of Puppets is cocaine. Chop your breakfast on the mirror. Taste me you will see, more is all you need. Read the lyrics with that in mind. It all makes sense.

    I'm pretty sure it's about drugs...

    "Taste me and you will see
    More is all you need
    You're dedicated to
    How I'm killing you"

    "Pain monopoly, ritual misery
    Chop your breakfast on a mirror"

    "I will occupy
    I will help you die
    I will run though you
    Now I rule you too"
