Metallica - 'Screaming Suicide' (official music video)

Welcome to this life
Born into the fight
Here to claim your dream
Look you in the eye
Patch the broken sky
Craving dopamine
Then my voice appears
Teaching you of fears
Are you good enough?
You don’t recognize
Head is full of lies
You should just give up

Listen well, better listen well
Listen well, better listen well

Don’t ever speak my name
Remember you’re to blame
Keep me inside
Keep me inside
My name is suicide

Curse another day
Spirit locked away
Punish and deprive
Hate to be awake
Living a mistake
More dead than alive
Then a voice appears
Whisper in your ears
“You are good enough”
Throwing down a rope
A lifeline of hope
Never give you up

Listen well, better listen well
Listen well, better listen well

Don’t ever speak my name
Remember you’re to blame
Keep me inside
Keep me inside
My name is suicide

Terrified in sleepless nights
Caught in spotlight dead to rights
Isolate and fight your mind
Telling you you’re left behind

My lying voice inside
Keeps drinking cyanide
And no more can you run
Into the sun

Terrified, sleepless nights
Caught in spotlight dead to rights
Isolate and fight your mind
Telling you you’re left behind

And now you speak my name
You’ve given back the blame
Keep me deep inside
Don’t you keep me inside
Screaming suicide

Now that I’m exposed inside
Shined a light on cyanide
I’m no longer needed here
Now you've faced your biggest fear

Την κυκλοφορία νέου δίσκου γνωστοποίησαν οι Metallica. Τιτλοφορείται "72 Seasons" και έχει προγραμματισθεί να κυκλοφορήσει στην "καρδιά" της άνοιξης. Πρόκειται για το δωδέκατο (12ο) full length album των Αμερικανών metallers και το πρώτο μετά από επτά χρόνια (βλ. "Hardwired... to Self-Destruct" 2016). Το έδαφος προετοίμασε το τραγούδι "Lux Æterna", ενώ σειρά για παρουσίαση παίρνει το βίντεο του μουσικού κομματιού "Screaming Suicide", για το οποίο μας λένε σχετικά:

«Screaming Suicide’ addresses the taboo word of suicide. The intention is to communicate about the darkness we feel inside. It's ridiculous to think we should deny that we have these thoughts. At one point or another, I believe most people have thought about it. To face it is to speak the unspoken. If it's a human experience, we should be able to talk about it. You are not alone.»
