Ride the Lightning (Fan Recording - Live at Solnahallen, Stockholm, Sweden - September 26th, 1986)

So, have you got the blue album with a little chair on it?
Nice one, man
This is the title track, entitled "Ride The Lightning"

Shut up

Guilty as charged, but damn it, it ain't right
Someone else's controlling me
Death in the air, strapped in the electric chair
This can't be happening to me

Who made you God to say
"I'll take your life from you"?

Flash before my eyes
Now it's time to die
Burning in my brain
I can feel the flames

Wait for the sign to flick the switch of death
It's the beginning of the end
Sweat, chilling cold as I watch death unfold
Consciousness, my only friend

My fingers grip with fear
What am I doing here?

Flash before my eyes
Now it's time to die
Burning in my brain
I can feel the flames

Someone help me
Oh please, God help me
They're trying to take it all away
I don't want to die

Someone help me
Oh please, God help me
They're trying to take it all away
I don't want to die

Hey-hey-hey-hey (come on)
Hey-hey-hey-hey
Hey-hey-hey-hey
Hey-hey-hey-hey

Time's moving slow, the minutes seem like hours
The final curtain's call I see
I'm through with this, just get it over with
If this is true, just let it be

Wakened by a horrid scream
Freed from this frightening dream

Flash before my eyes
Now it's time to die
Burning in my brain
I can feel the flames, yeah
