Metallica - Frantic Lyrics






If I could have my wasted days back
Would I use them to get back on track?
Stop to warm at Karma's burning
Or look ahead, but keep on turning?

Do I have the strength
To know how I'll go?
Can I find it inside
To deal with what I shouldn't know?

Could I have my wasted days back
Would I use them to get back on track?

You live it or lie it!
You live it or lie it!

My lifestyle determines my death style
My lifestyle determines my death style

Keep searching, Keep on searching
This search goes on, This search goes on
Keep searching, Keep on searching
This search goes on, This search goes on

Frantic tick tick tick tick tick tock
Frantic tick tick tick tick tick tock
Frantic tick tick tick tick tick tock
Frantic tick tick tick tick tick tock

I've worn out always being afraid
An endless stream of fear that I've made
Treading water full of worry
This frantic tick tick talk of hurry

Do I have the strength
To know how I'll go?
Can I find it inside
To deal with what I shouldn't know?

Worn out on always being afraid
An endless stream of fear that I've made

You live it or lie it!
You live it or lie it!

My lifestyle determines my death style
My lifestyle determines my death style

Keep searching, Keep on searching
This search goes on, This search goes on
Keep searching, Yeah keep on searching
This search goes on, on and on

Frantic tick tick tick tick tick tock
Frantic tick tick tick tick tick tock
Frantic tick tick tick tick tick tock
Frantic tick tick tick tick tick tock

Do I have the strength
To know how I'll go?
Can I find it inside
To deal with what I shouldn't know?

Do I have the strength
To know how I'll go?
Can I find it inside
To deal with what I shouldn't know?

My lifestyle (Birth Is Pain)
Determines my death style (Life Is Pain)
A rising tide (Death Is Pain)
That pushes to the other side (It's All The Same)

My lifestyle (Birth Is Pain)
Determines my death style (Life Is Pain)
A rising tide (Death Is Pain)
That pushes to the other side (It's All The Same)

Keep searching, Keep on searching
This search goes on, on and on
Keep searching, Keep on searching
This search goes on, on and on

Frantic tick tick tick tick tick tock
Frantic tick tick tick tick tick tock
Frantic tick tick tick tick tick tock
Frantic tick tick tick tick tick tock

    Lixo, época mais arrogante do Metallica.... depois se ligou nas merdas, o Lars calou a boca e tudo voltou ao "normal"

    D.... M....

    Calma bro

    D.... M....

    @Augusto Cesar rsrsrsr Vivi essa época mano, até hoje, mesmo eu curtindo o estilo do Lars, ainda tenho raiva kkkkkkkkk

  33. V.... G....

    Это последний слушабильный альбом металлики все последущее просто говно на любителя

  34. k.... ....

    They should remaster this album with a better mix ( less snare , chunkier guitars ) it would be epic . I still like it though

    I used to listen to this song when I was 2 on guitar hero

  59. C.... ....

    The Frantic-tick-tick-tick-tick-tick-tock part is such an accurate description of what a person's mind goes through in a manic state of bipolar disorder.

  60. M.... A....

  61. c.... d....

    Andrea SEVERIN he’s angry about Tik tok before it existed

  72. N.... ....

    how can someone hate this song is so good snares give like special feeling i dont now why to me is sooo good

    N.... ....

    I really like this song as well

  73. D.... Y....

    One of the best riffs in thrash metal but the drums are absolutely shit

  74. V.... L....

    de ahí se vino la aplicación tik tok :v

  75. D.... T....

    This dude gets a lot of pussy

  76. L.... A....

    Saint Angus is fantastic album, sad that Master of the Light could not keep up the quality

  77. S.... B....

    This album was shit musically but lyric wise fucking good.

  78. R.... B....

    One of the worst metal albums in history... and sound of drums is the "best" - like throwing dishes in the kitchen together with "jingle bells".

  79. M.... R....

    Selling epic james face 3:16

  80. D.... L....

    Ok yes the snare is bad and so memeable but james’ vocals are what kill it for me

  81. k.... l....

    0:29 the man who fixes his car :D

  82. C.... G....

    Esta chigona esta de frantic metallica no mames que loco por esta cancion,😈♈🎩

  83. m.... d....

    Dobry kawałek, ale dla mnie priorytetem jest...



    Solowki hammeta...

  84. A.... k....

    Me asking: So why do you hate St.Anger
    My friend: sNaRe bAd aLbUm bAd

  85. G.... S....

    How many times can u sing the chorus without breathing

  86. G.... ....

    Ironically one of their heaviest song was one of the most disliked.

    G.... ....

    @UK Orbit 7 The loose snare definitely doesn't help the song out.
    I mean it's not Cattle Decapitation or Deicide heavy, but it's heavy for Metallica, and not it the thrash way.
    They were trying a new sound, and most of the songs sucked.

    G.... ....

    Nu-metal Metallica was a strange time...

    G.... ....

    A lot of people have wasted their days.

    G.... ....

    Instead lets look ahead to the future.

  87. M.... I....

    Lars snare in 1991: one of the most loudest snare i ever heard

    Lars snare in 2003: trash can lid
