The Memory Remains (Live)

Alright

So, it's obvious

That the Metallica family is here, alive and well

And loud

Loud and proud, the way we like it, baby

So uh, let's try and top all the other nights, okay?

We're gonna see if we can take it to another level

We know you know most of the words

Thank God

'Cause I forget 'em sometimes, anyway

Let's see how loud you do here

Fortune, fame

Mirror vain

Gone insane but the (memory remains)

Heavy rings on fingers wave

Another star denies the grave

See the nowhere crowd cry the nowhere tears of honor

Like twisted vines that grow

Hide and swallow mansions whole

Dim the light of an already faded prima donna

Fortune, fame

Mirror vain

Gone insane

Fortune, fame

Mirror vain

Gone insane but the (memory remains)

Heavy rings hold cigarettes

Up to lips that time forgets

While the Hollywood sun sets behind your back

And can't the band play on?

Just listen, they play my song

Ash to ash

Dust to dust

Fade to black

Fortune, fame

Mirror vain

Gone insane (insane)

Fortune, fame

Mirror vain

Gone insane

Dance little tin goddess, sing!

Drift away, fade away

Little tin goddess

Ash to ash

Dust to dust

Fade to black

Fortune, fame

Mirror vain

Gone insane (insane)

Fortune, fame

Mirror vain

Gone insane but the memory remains

Ash to ash (ash to ash)

Dust to dust (dust to dust)

Fade to black (fade to black)

The memory remains

Like a faded prima donna, yeah, yeah, yeah

(Mr. Hammett)

Dance, little tin goddess, dance

Sing it!
