Song lyrics

Send "Welcome Home (Sanitarium)" ringtones to your cell

Welcome to where time stands still
no one leaves and no one will
Moon is full, never seems to change
just labeled mentally deranged

Dream the same thing every night
I see our freedom in my sight
No locked doors, No windows barred
No things to make my brain seem scarred

Sleep my friend and you will see
that dream is my reality
They keep me locked up in this cage
can't they see it's why my brain says Rage

Sanitarium, leave me be
Sanitarium, just leave me alone

Build my fear of what's out there
and cannot breathe the open air
Whisper things into my brain
assuring me that I'm insane

They think our heads are in their hands
but violent use brings violent plans
Keep him tied, it makes him well
he's getting better, can't you tell?

No more can they keep us in
Listen, damn it, we will win
They see it right, they see it well
but they think this saves us from our Hell

Sanitarium, leave me be
Sanitarium, just leave me alone
Sanitarium, just leave me alone

Fear of living on
natives getting restless now
Mutiny in the air
got some death to do
Mirror stares back hard
Kill, it's such a friendly word
seems the only way
for reaching out again.

3,204 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal "i hate covers... of anything... originals are always better... no one can redo an already perfect song!!!" ... I disagree! Tool's cover of no quarter, Which is already pretty much the best song ever, was quite an improvement... Metallica's cover of Astronomy... undeniabley better than the original... Same with their Turn The Page cover... um... there are lots of great covers... Lovesong/diary of a madman- APC... Totally took the best from both songs and made one great tune... I could go on and on.. Annnd about the song, Its good... very good...

10 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal My favourite song!!! Well, anyways! This song is awesome! Though it´s slower than other Master Of Puppets songs, the melody is great. I don´t even want to get started on the lyrics, but I have to say ONE thing! They are not about people in a sanitarium, they´re about people closed in themselves, trying to get out! The lyrics are the best in all times... That should be it! Have a nice day, night, or whatever it is when you read this!

86 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal This song is awesome, almost everything from Metallica is--and no, not all covers are bad. Audioslave did a cover on a horrible song (which wont be named) and blew away thne original creators

10 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal I personaly thingk this is one of Metallicas better songs.... The Blitzkrieg cover is also a nice update from the original "weaker" version done by bltiskrieg and dont forget the song Am I evil? that cover boosted Metallica into the buissness

63 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal I've got no idea what you're all talking about, never heard the remix.. but i love this song, its a great song, a great subject for the song, greatly preformed, everything about this song is great.. cant understand why people just go in on these song s to give a bad rating.. bad form, thats what i call it... By the way, Metallica rules, but yellowcard is better
