[Verse 1: James Hetfield]
Pride you took, pride you feel
Pride that you felt when you'd kneel
Not the word, not the love
Not what you thought from above
[Pre-Chorus: James Hetfield]
It feeds, it grows
It clouds all that you will know
Deceit, deceive
Decide just what you believe
[Chorus: James Hetfield]
I see faith in your eyes
Never you hear the discouraging lies
I hear faith in your cries
Broken is the promise, betrayal
The healing hand held back by the deepened nail
Follow the god that failed
[Verse 2: James Hetfield]
Find your peace, find your say
Find the smooth road in your way
Trust you gave, a child to save
Left you cold and him in grave
[Pre-Chorus: James Hetfield]
It feeds, it grows
It clouds all that you will know
Deceit, deceive
Decide just what you believe
[Chorus: James Hetfield]
I see faith in your eyes
Never you hear the discouraging lies
I hear faith in your cries
Broken is the promise, betrayal
The healing hand held back by the deepened nail
Follow the god that failed
[Guitar Solo: Kirk Hammett]
[Chorus: James Hetfield]
I see faith in your eyes
Broken is the promise, betrayal
The healing hand held back by the deepened nail
Follow the god that failed
[Verse 3: James Hetfield]
Pride you took, pride you feel
Pride that you felt when you'd kneel
Trust you gave, a child to save
Left you cold and him in grave
[Chorus: James Hetfield]
I see faith in your eyes
Never you hear the discouraging lies
I hear faith in your cries
Broken is the promise, betrayal
The healing hand held back by the deepened nail
Follow the god that failed
[Outro: James Hetfield]
Follow the god that failed, yeah
Broken is the promise, betrayal
Betrayal, yeah
Pride you took, pride you feel
Pride that you felt when you'd kneel
Not the word, not the love
Not what you thought from above
[Pre-Chorus: James Hetfield]
It feeds, it grows
It clouds all that you will know
Deceit, deceive
Decide just what you believe
[Chorus: James Hetfield]
I see faith in your eyes
Never you hear the discouraging lies
I hear faith in your cries
Broken is the promise, betrayal
The healing hand held back by the deepened nail
Follow the god that failed
[Verse 2: James Hetfield]
Find your peace, find your say
Find the smooth road in your way
Trust you gave, a child to save
Left you cold and him in grave
[Pre-Chorus: James Hetfield]
It feeds, it grows
It clouds all that you will know
Deceit, deceive
Decide just what you believe
[Chorus: James Hetfield]
I see faith in your eyes
Never you hear the discouraging lies
I hear faith in your cries
Broken is the promise, betrayal
The healing hand held back by the deepened nail
Follow the god that failed
[Guitar Solo: Kirk Hammett]
[Chorus: James Hetfield]
I see faith in your eyes
Broken is the promise, betrayal
The healing hand held back by the deepened nail
Follow the god that failed
[Verse 3: James Hetfield]
Pride you took, pride you feel
Pride that you felt when you'd kneel
Trust you gave, a child to save
Left you cold and him in grave
[Chorus: James Hetfield]
I see faith in your eyes
Never you hear the discouraging lies
I hear faith in your cries
Broken is the promise, betrayal
The healing hand held back by the deepened nail
Follow the god that failed
[Outro: James Hetfield]
Follow the god that failed, yeah
Broken is the promise, betrayal
Betrayal, yeah
