Mama Said Lyrics - Load - Metallica

Mama she has taught me well 

Told me when i was young 

"son your life's an open book 

Don't close it 'fore its done" 

"the brightest flame burns quickest" 

That's what i heard her say 

A son's heart sowed to mother 

But i must find my way 

Let my heart go 

Let your son grow 

Mama let my heart go 

Let this heart be still 

Yeah still 

Rebel mind your last name 

Wild blood in my veins 

They bring strings around my neck 

The mark that still remains 

Left home at an early age 

Of what i heard was wrong 

I never asked forgiveness 

But what is said is done 

Let my heart go 

Let your son grow 

Mama, let my heart go 

Let this heart be still 

Never i ask of you 

But never i gave 

But you gave me your emptiness that i'll take to my grave 

Never i ask of you 

But never i gave 

But you gave me your emptiness that i'll take to my grave 

So let this heart be still 

Mama, now i'm coming home 

I'm not all you wished of me 

A mother's love for her son 

Spoken, help me be 

I took your love for granted 

Not a thing you said to me 

I needed your arms to welcome me 

But, a cold stone's all i see 

Let my heart go 

Let your son grow 

Mama, let my heart go 

Let this heart be still 

Let my heart go 

Mama, let my heart go 

You never let my heart go 

So let this heart be still 

Never i ask of you 

But never i gave 

But you gave me your emptiness that i'll take to my grave 

Never i ask of you 

But never i gave 

But you gave me your emptiness that i'll take to my grave 

Let this heart be still
