Check out the lyrics to Metallica’s The Judas Kiss from the new album Death Magnetic:
The Judas Kiss
When the world has turned its back
When the days have turned pitch black
When the fear abducts your tongue
When the fire’s dead and gone
So what now?
Where do I head?
When you think it’s all said and done…
When you are the ostracized
Selfish ridden dead goodbyes
Twisting on the tourniquet
When the pieces never fit
So what now?
Where do I head?
When you think it’s all said and done…
Bow down,
Sell your soul to me,
I will set you free,
Pacify your demons.
Bow down,
Surrender unto me,
Submit infectiously,
Sanctify your demons.
Into abyss,
You don’t exist,
Cannot resist the Judas kiss.
When the storm has blacked your sky
Intuition, crucify
When the ego strips your reign
Assassinate the living flame
So what now?
Where do I head?
When you think it’s all said and done…
Venom of a life insane
Bites into your fragile veins
Internalize and decimate
Patronize and complicate
So what now?
Where do I head?
When you think it’s all said and done…
Bow down,
Sell your soul to me,
I will set you free,
Pacify your demons.
Bow down,
Surrender unto me,
Submit infectiously,
Sanctify your demons.
Into abyss,
You don’t exist,
Cannot resist the Judas kiss.
Judas lives, recite this vow
I’ve become your new God now
Followed you from dawn of time
Whispered thoughts into your mind
Watched your towers hit the ground
Lured the children never found
Helped your kings abuse their crown
In the heart of feeble man
Plant the seeds of my own plan
The strong and powerful will fall
Find a piece of me in all
Inside you all
So bow down,
Sell your soul to me,
I will set you free,
Pacify your demons.
Bow down,
Surrender unto me,
Submit infectiously,
Sanctify your demons.
Into abyss,
You don’t exist,
Cannot resist the Judas kiss.

Great album , great song, but it’s
“find a piece of me in all

Bow down…”

@Vidu, Thanks for your comment! I believe James sings “…Inside you all, so bow down…”. The “all” and “so” are so close that it sounds as “also”. That is what the official lyrics booklet says as well.

Awesome! They will nail the rock n’ roll hall of fame in its grave for real this time.
