Escape Lyrics » Metallica
[Verse 1]
Feel no pain, but my life ain’t easy
I know I’m my best friend
No one cares, but I’m so much stronger
I’ll fight until the end
To escape from the true false world
Undamaged destiny
Can’t get caught in the endless circle
Ring of stupidity
[Chorus]
Out for my own, out to be free
One with my mind, they just can’t see
No need to hear things that they say
Life’s for my own to live my own way
[Verse 2]
Rape my mind and destroy my feelings
Don’t tell me what to do
I don’t care now ’cause I’m on my side
And I can see through you
Feed my brain with your so called standards
Who says that I ain’t right?
Break away from your common fashion
See through your blurry sight

About Metallica’s Escape from Ride the Lightning (1984)
This song from the Metallica’s second album was one that largely went unnoticed.
This is James Hetfield’s single most hated Metallica song, because the record company had forced them to write something more radio friendly. They refused to ever play it live, until 2012 at Orion Music Festival, when they were playing the album in its entirety.
Because the lyrical content is based around themes of personal-freedom, inner-strength and resiliency, the hardcore band
Hatebreed chose to release a (detuned) cover of it as the album closer on their fifth (self-titled) album.

FAQs About Escape
What did Metallica say about “Escape”?
It’s become this folklore that I hate “Escape.” It’s not true! It was the last song that was written for the
Ride the Lightning
sessions, and it was purposely kept a little shorter than the other songs. We thought of it in the spirit of Iron Maiden’s “Run to the Hill” or Judas Priest’s “Living After Midnight”—dare I use the words ‘radio songs’? So instead of turning it into an eight-minute “Seek and Destroy” type of thing, we kept it on the short side. Then it got a bad rap, and I don’t know why. I don’t have a particular problem with it, but it never became a live staple like the other songs on the record. It just goes to show that you’re better off not trying to do things on purpose.
