Metallica – The Memory Remains

Fortune, fame,
mirror vain
Gone insane, but the memory remains

Heavy rings on fingers wave
Another star denies the grave
See the nowhere crowd
Cry the nowhere cheers of honor

Like twisted vines that grow
Hide and swallow mansions whole
In light of an already
Faded primadonna

Fortune, fame, mirror vain,
Gone insane…
Fortune, fame, mirror vain
Gone insane…
But the memory remains

Heavy rings hold cigarettes
Up to lips that time forgets
While the Hollywood sunsets
Behind your back

And can’t the band play on
Just listen, they play my song
Ash to ash, dust to dust,
Fade to black

Fortune, fame, mirror vain,
Gone insane…
Fortune, fame, mirror vain
Gone insane…
Dance little tin goddess

(Marianne Faithful🙂

Nanana nanana nanana

Drift away, fade away
Little tin goddess
Ash to ash, dust to dust,
Fade to black

Fortune, fame, mirror vain,
Gone insane…
Fortune, fame, mirror vain,
Gone insane…
But the memory remains

Ash to ash, dust to dust,
Fade to black…
But the memory remains
Faded primadonna
Dance little tin goddess dance

Nanana nanana nanana.
