Metallica - Some Kind Of Monster Lyrics






These are the eyes that can't see me
These are the hands that drop your trust
These are the boots that kick you around
This is the tongue that speaks on the inside
These are the ears that ring with hate
This is the face that I'll never change
This is the fist that grinds you down
This is the voice of silence no more

These are the legs that in circles run
This is the beating you'll never know
These are the lips that taste no freedom
This is the feel that's not so safe
This is the face you'll never change
This is the god that ain't so pure
This is the god that is not pure
This is the voice of silence no more

We the people
Are we the people?
We the people
Are we the people?

Some kind of monster
Some kind of monster
Some kind of monster
This monster lives

This is the face that stones you cold
This is the moment that needs to breathe
These are the claws that scratch these wounds
This is the pain that never leaves
This is the tongue that whips you down
This is the burden of every man
These are the screams that pierce your skin
This is the voice of silence no more

This is the test of flesh and soul
This is the trap that smells so good
This is the flood that drains these eyes
These are the looks that chill to the bone
These are the fears that swing over head
These are the weights that hold you down
This is the end that will never end
This is the voice of silence no more

We the people
Are we the people?
We the people
Are we the people?

Some kind of monster
Some kind of monster
Some kind of monster
This monster lives

This is the cloud that swallows trust
This is the black that uncolors us
This is the face that you hide from
This is the mask that comes undone

Ominous,
I'm in us [x4]

This is the cloud that swallows trust
This is the black that uncolors us
This is the face that you hide from
This is the mask that comes undone

Ominous,
I'm in us [x4]

Are we the people?

Some kind of monster
Some kind of monster
Some kind of monster
This monster lives

Metallica Some Kind Of Monster Comments
  1. I.... T....

    I like this version, but I rather PREFER the album version with the little James' solo

  2. m.... m....

    That solo is just perfect

  3. T.... ....

    Idgaf This is my fav metallica song

  4. A.... G....

    god loves this shit

  5. h.... b....

    Fun Fact: The shorter James hair is, the shitter Metallica's music is

    h.... b....

    Did you just diss Load, Reload, St. Anger, Death Magnetic, and Hardwired in one comment lol?

    h.... b....

    @The Last and Phantom His theorie seems to work then.

    (not that their newer stuff is shit, it's shittier compared to their early stuff for sure)

  6. D.... ....

    One of the most groovy riffs of Metallica

  7. z.... ....

    So it doesn't have double picking because Kirk couldn't play it?

  8. P.... R....

    Anyone know the tabs to this for guitar I really want to learn it

  9. E.... W....

    This song is legendary!!!!

  10. A.... _....

    best song on st anger

  11. J.... L....

    Nobody can say this isnt a great song. Period.

  12. o.... c....

    In my opinion this is the only good song from that god-awful album.

  13. B.... ....

    HE FOCKING LEFT THE BAND?!

  14. �.... �....

    Awesome

  15. M.... 6....

    This song is show how Metallica got what it takes to become
    *"THE BEST BAND OF ALL TIME"*
    Especially,with their documentary
    They face many different situation from fame,misfortune,clash,desperation,and etc.
    I really doubt other band can do this!
    Whatever those haters say about Metallica going underrated cause they not use to be,
    *METALLICA WILL ALWAYS GOING HARD WHATEVER THEY WANT AND METALLICA RULES!!!!*

  16. C.... ....

    Some kind of mustard

  17. M.... I....

    I kinda like their guitar tone on this album

  18. m.... ....

    what is she saying in the beginning

  19. s.... a....

    "After 20 years is it possible to retain the fire that you guys once had in the beginning"
    Lars : 🤔
    After 40 years...




    Lars : 🤔

  20. W.... ....

    "Kickin at a dead horse pleases you" Little did they know during ...and Justice they'd become one of their own lyrics. Been a fan following these guys since 83' and in 2019 I just can't go any further. Load was the last I bought and by that time they just outgrew their own style and method. Love them all but it's no longer the Edge, it's too polished and rounded.

  21. R.... W....

    To be honest, I am glad they released St. Anger. After Cliff's death the entire band started to slowly descend into existential crisis. That along with James running away from his personal issues and the mistreatment of Jason were gradually creating tensions within Metallica for years. It was only a question of time when they were going to be forced to face themselves and learn to deal with their problems like adults. The entire music industry landscape was rapidly changing in early 2000's, and that's when their crisis finally peaked. You can clearly hear it on the record. They needed to get that album out of their system in order to move on, and that's why I respect it. It's just pure fucking emotion.

  22. N.... O....

    When was the last time they played this live?

  23. B.... B....

    I finkin this song about James

  24. z.... _....

  64. M.... ....

  66. I.... B....

    This is actually the best st Anger song

  67. l.... t....

    Original version trash
    YouTube version pretty good

  68. F.... M....

    From 2000 to 2006 they passed their worst time and create their worst music...i love the last 2 albums Death magnetic and Hardwired...

  69. F.... ....

    James this monster lives in all of us.

  70. M.... O....

    Great riff! riff! riff! riff!

  71. C.... ....

    Funny how they cut literally half of the original song and it stiil feels like a whole track.

  72. m.... k....

    we are the people!
    are we the people?

  73. H.... S....

    people who don't like this album just haven't went through the emotions to understand it

  74. K.... W....

    This sounds heaps better than the OG, which is still great on its own.

  75. a.... k....

    '83--> y '91--> . (Hard is enter 'Trash').

  76. a.... k....

    Hard Metal y Rock Metal.

  79. M.... G....

    SSSSOME KIND OF MOONSTERRRRR

  80. M.... G....

    This song sounds great the way it is: raw, angry, untameable.
