Metallica - UN3 (Unforgiven III) Lyrics

How could he know this new dawn's light
Would change his life forever?
Set sail to sea, but pulled off course
By the light of golden treasure.

Was he the one causing pain
With his careless dreaming?
Been afraid, always afraid,
Of the things he's feeling.

He could just be gone.
He would just sail on
He ll just sail on.

How can I be lost, when I've got nowhere to go?
Shovel streets of gold,
How come it's got so cold?

And how can I be lost, when my ship was made to drift?
And how can I blame you,
When it's me I can't forgive?

These days drift on inside this fog
It's thick and suffocating.
His sinking life, outside its hell.
Inside, intoxicating.

Ships run aground. Like his life,
The water's much too shallow.
He goes down, down with his ship,
Sinking in the shadows.

Now a castaway.
They've all gone away.
All gone away.

How can I be lost, when I've got nowhere to go?
Shovel streets of gold,
How come it's got so cold?

And how can I be lost, when my ship was made to drift?
And how can I blame you,
When it's me I can't forgive?

Forgive me.
Forgive me not.
Why can't I forgive me?

Set sail to sea, but pulled off course
By the light of golden treasure.
How could he know this new dawn's light
Would change his life forever?

How can I be lost, when I've got nowhere to go?
Shovel streets of gold,
How come it's got so cold?

And how can I be lost, when my ship was made to drift?
And how can I blame you,
When it's me I can't forgive?
