The Unforgiven (Live at the Masonic, San Francisco, CA - November 3rd, 2018)

Lyrics

[Spoken: James Hetfield & Kirk Hammett] Okay, let's play a Metallica song. No? Was that a no? Oh. Yes, it was a no. I'm confused. Alright. I forgot how it started. Eight count right? Always an eight count. Always [Verse 1: James Hetfield] New blood joins this Earth And quickly he's subdued Through constant pained disgrace The young boy learns their rules With time the child draws in This whipping boy done wrong Deprived of all his thoughts The young man struggles on and on he's known Ooh, a vow unto his own That never from this day His will they'll take away [Chorus: James Hetfield] What I've felt, what I've known Never shined through in what I've shown Never be, never see Won't see what might have been What I've felt, what I've known Never shined through in what I've shown Never free, never me So I dub thee "Unforgiven" [Verse 2: James Hetfield] They dedicate their lives To running all of his He tries to please them all This bitter man he is Throughout his life the same He's battled constantly This fight he cannot win A tired man they see no longer cares The old man then prepares To die regretfully That old man here is me [Chorus: James Hetfield] What I've felt, what I've known Never shined through in what I've shown Never be, never see I won't see what might have been What I've felt, what I've known Never shined through in what I've shown Never free, never me So I dub thee "Unforgiven" Unforgiven, hey [Guitar Solo: Kirk Hammett] [Chorus: James Hetfield] What I've felt, what I've known Never shined through in what I've shown Never be, never see Won't see what might have been What I've felt, what I've known Never shined through in what I've shown Never free, never me So I dub thee "Unforgiven" [Outro: James Hetfield] Never free, never me So I dub thee "Unforgiven" You labeled me, I'll label you So I dub thee "Unforgiven" Never free, never me So I dub thee "Unforgiven" You labeled me, I'll label you So I dub thee "Unforgiven" Never free, never me [Spoken] Uh, yeah. Uh... maybe it's all the mics that are open too. We're gonna kill some of that. I just wish it sounded better for me, that's all. I'd have more fun
