Unforgiven I.I (tweaked)

a tweak of Metallica "The Unforgiven"

new love joins this earth
but quickly it sucumbs
through nervous pained disgrace
the young boy acts a fool

short time; the love is gone
both sides in the wrong
deprived of even talks
the young boy walks alone
a-long
the road
with a pain seeming his own
that she seems not to bear
she no longer care

what I felt
what I known
nerves kept in
never shown
couldn't let her see
feelings never free
won't see what might have been

what I've felt
what I've known
never shined through
in what I've shown
she'll never see
my feelings free
so I'm the unforgiven

I dedicate my time
to care, but its a crime
I try and I fall
a lonely man I walk
through out my life the same
I've battled constantly
a fight I'll never win
this lonely guy you see
no longer smiles
the young blood now prepares
to hide his feelings
the young blood here is me

what I felt
what I know
nerves kept in
never shown
couldn't let her see
feelings never free
won't see what might have been

what I've felt
what I've known
never shined through in what I've shown
she'll never see
my feelings free
so I'm the unforgiven

(1st and 2nd solos)

what I've felt
what I've known
never shined through in what I've shown
It'll never be
she'll never see
won't see what might have been

what she felt
what she's shown
faded away when I went home
we'll never be
never with me
so I'm the unforgiven

(3rd solo)

never be
never me
I'm the unforgiven

you let go of me
I hold on to you
so I'm the unforgiven

never free
never see
won't see what could've been

you invited me
I came to you
but in the end, it was through

never me
never you
I'm the unforgiven

you ignor me
I notice you
thats why I'm the unforgiven

our history
short as it be
I'm here for you
because I'm the unforgiven

[Fréyjä Helv..]

I LOVE METALLICA! And this sounded like the original song... Well obviously that's where you got the inspiration... Nice work.. :)

[Jocelin]

Well done :) keep writing!

[New Dawn]

Don't know the song Harley but loved the poem - your writing gets better and better - well done!

[Harley (arbiter)]

Well if ya listened to the video you can proudly say you know it now! :D thanks

[Cole Hayley]

I dont really think this is a parody of the song. Parodys are usually something poking fun at the song where this is more of a fan tweak of the song. I like Metallica, and this is by far the best song they've written in the "black album" era. All in all a good work tho .

[Laura Maidah]

this apple is full of devil throaty sounds, two daughters , one has laid it down, one spikes its crown, Me I step on the sound bombs, and their waves shake through me ,spin me around
roll me in the rip tide, crawling up the beach I coulda died

[Dr. Wood ?]

[Harley (arbiter)]
