Der Songtext des Liedes "Sad But True" von Metallica lautet:
Hey I'm your life I'm the one who takes you there
Hey I'm your life I'm the one who cares
They
They betray I'm your only true friend now
They 'par They'll betray I'm forever there
I'm your dream, make you real
I'm your eyes when you must steal
I'm your pain when you can't feel
Sad but true
I'm your dream, mind astray
I'm your eyes while you're away
I'm your pain while you repay
You know it's sad but true you
You're my mask
You're my cover, my shelter
You 'par You're my mask
You're the one who's blamed
Do 'par Do my work
Do my dirty work, scapegoat
Do 'par Do my deeds
For you're the one who's shamed
I'm your dream, make you real
I'm your eyes when you must steal
I'm your pain when you can't feel
Sad but true
I'm your dream, mind astray
I'm your eyes while you're away
I'm your pain while you repay
You know it's sad but true hate I'm your hate
I'm your hate when you want love
Pay
Pay the price pay, for nothing's fair
Hey I'm your life I'm the one who took you here
Hey I'm your life
And I no longer care
I'm your dream, make you real
I'm your eyes when you must steal
I'm your pain when you can't feel
Sad but true
I'm your truth, telling lies
I'm your reasoned alibis
I'm inside open your eyes
I'm you
Sad but true
