Killing Time
(Metallica — Garage Inc. Disc 2)
(Originally recorded by Sweet Savage)
Sound of gunfire comes through the night,
Killing and hatred, it’s a terrible sight
Reports come in of the heavy attack,
Message is seen, we’re moving back
Preparations are made for the journey back,
It’s a survival, supplies are packed
No more nights in this eternal hell,
Destination is simple, we move out
Killing time — You left from the line
Killing time — Your turn to kill
Killing time — What do you say?
Killing time — Aaha, killing time
And he knew what he needed to keep us alive,
No time for cowardice, kill and survive
Like a killer kid with a switchblade knife,
Nasty word, he’ll take your life
The silence is over, they attack again,
Killing and hatred drive me insane
Reports come in of a heavy attack,
Message is seen, we’re moving back
Killing time — You left from the line
Killing time — Your turn to kill
Killing time — What do you say?
Killing time — Aaha, killing time
Sound of gunfire comes through the night,
Killing and hatred, it’s a terrible sight
Reports come in of a heavy attack,
Message is seen, we’re moving back
And he knew what he needed to keep us alive,
