the shortest straw (work in progress rough mix) - metallica lyrics lyrics
[instrumental intro]
[verse 1]
suspicion is your name
your honesty to blame
put dignity to shame, dishonor
witch+hunt, modern day
determining decay
the blatant disarray, disfigure
the public eyes’ disgrace
defying common place
unending paper chase, unending
[pre+chorus]
deafening
painstaking
reckoning
this vertigo it doth bring
[chorus]
shortest straw, challenge liberty
downed by law, live in infamy
rub you raw, witch+hunt riding through
shortest straw
the shortest straw has been pulled for you
[post+chorus]
pulled for you
pulled for you
pulled for you
shortest straw has been pulled for you
[instrumental break]
[verse 2]
the accusations fly
discrimination, why?
your inner self to die, intruding
doubt sunk itself in you
its t++th and talons through
you’re living catch+22, deluding
a mass hysteria
a megalomania
reveal dementia, reveal
[pre+chorus]
secretly
silently
certainly
in vertigo you will be
[chorus]
shortest straw, challenge liberty
downed by law, live in infamy
rub you raw, witch+hunt riding through
shortest straw
the shortest straw has been pulled for you
[post+chorus]
pulled for you
pulled for you
pulled for you
shortest straw has been pulled for you
[instrumental break]
[bridge]
pulled for you
pulled for you
pulled for you
shortest straw has been pulled for you
[instrumental break]
[verse 3]
behind you, hands are tied
your being ostracized
your h+ll is multiplied, upending
the fallout has begun
oppressive damage done
your many turned to none to nothing
you’re reaching your nadir
your will has disappeared
the lie is crystal clear, defending
[pre+chorus]
channels red
one word said
blacklisted
with vertigo make you dead
[chorus]
shortest straw, challenge liberty
downed by law, live in infamy
rub you raw, witch+hunt riding through
shortest straw
the shortest straw has been pulled for you
pulled for you
[instrumental outro]
