When a man lies, he murders a part of the world
These are the pale deaths that men miscall their lives
All this I cannot bear to witness any longer
Cannot the Kingdom of Salvation take me home?
Ironically, Cliff Burton died soon after writing these lyrics in a freak tour bus accident (hitting an ice patch and flipping over in September). Coincidence?
Which leads to the next lyric snippet: Municipal Waste - Black Ice
On the lonesome high way the roadways are slick
The temperatures dropping the fog is to thick
The chill in the air mixed with old in the lane
Its natures creation to cause your great pain
Black Ice! Your gonna wreck
Black Ice! Dont lose control
Black Ice! Youll break your neck
So on your next journey just heed my advice
That shit killed Cliff Burton Beware of Black Ice!
