The Unforgiven - Live at Day on the Green, Oakland, CA / October 12th, 1991 Songtext
von Metallica

Well, well
Think we′re gonna fuckin' try something a little different here
So wish us luck, alright

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

A vow unto his own
That never from this day
His will they'll take away

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

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
The tired man they see no longer cares

The old man then prepares
To die regretfully
That old man here is me

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


Oh, my God

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, oh-oh

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
I dub thee unforgiven
Never free, never me

Never free, never me
So I dub thee unforgiven
You labeled me, I'll label you
Never free, never me
