Halestorm - Ride The Lightning Lyrics
Guilty as charged
But damn, it ain't right
There's someone else controlling me
Death in the air
Strapped in the electric chair
Who made you God to say
"I'll take your life from you?"
Flash before my eyes
Now it's time to die
Burning in my brain
I can feel the flame
Wait for the sign
It's the beginning of the end
Sweat, chilling cold
As I watch death unfold
Consciousness my only friend
My fingers grip with fear
What am I doing here?
Flash before my eyes
Now it's time to die
Burning in my brain
I can feel the flame
Someone help me
Oh please, God help me
They're trying to take it all away
I don't want to die
Someone help me
Oh please, God help me
They're trying to take it all away
I don't want to die
Time moving slow
The minutes seem like hours
The final curtain call I see
How true is this?
Just get it over with
If this is true, just let it be
Wakened by a horrid scream
Freed from this frightening dream
Flash before my eyes
Now it's time to die
Burning in my brain
I can feel the flame

Halestorm Ride The Lightning Comments
Fuckkkkkkking Yeaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh!
Acoustics 💯💯💯👌
DUDE!! I'd love to hear more 'Tallica covers!!
So incredibly SICK
Oh fuck this is heavy
Génial !! Excellente reprise des Four Horsemen !! Great Cover !! ...In my Compil ' !! :)
Im very glad to hear the solo in there , phew..... Great job on this whole cover in general .
People: "Girls can't do rock or metal"
Lzzy: "You're not worthy of holding my beer"
Could use a better mix, but your covers are in many ways better than the originals [especially the voc.'s].
The solo here sucks, but still good cover.
Goddamn
Крутяк!
Dave Mustaine just got a nickel.
Best Metallica cover I've ever heard
wish she included this in her setlist at her shows. also if James was a girl he should sound like her.
This song sounds like it was inspired by a bad meth trip. . . I love it nonetheless. :-D
Very good
I just found my all time favorite Halestorm song! THANK YOU FOR DOING MY FAVORITE BAND OF ALL TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good there always good sorry power house I ment to say ⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡
Love this, the vocals, the guitars what a good cover!!! my godness
Is there a song she can’t do? True answer is no she can do anything
Damn. The way she tears at those words is so badass
i’m going to cover the original, but i have to ask: Can i cover your version too?
I DID NOT expect this cover to be THIS GOOD. This is not only one of my favorite Metallica songs, but one of my favorite songs PERIOD. They not only did it justice, they simply blew me away
Halestorm kicks ass! Years from now Lizzy is going to be known as a legend! She can sing anything.
Put some reverb on everything
Needs more reverb
One of the best Metallica covers ever!
Love it, huge tallica fan, they nail this one. Nice to here someone cover a song that wasn't main stream.
Che figata
Not bad but feels weak
Pretty good cover!
Lzzy. Ride It
I M in.
Guitar tone needs more gain.
Damn, I'll be honest I was just listening to Metallica Ride The Lightning and saw this below it, and I thought "Oh no I love Halestorm" and was terrified to listen because I was skeptical about you guys pulling off such a metal masterpiece or even covering a Metallica song because of how intricate and perfect their songs are. But may I just say I think you made Metallica proud! This is an amazing cover, it shows the range Lizzys vocals has and the guitarists are obviously phenomenal because those riffs were amazing! Great job Halestorm! I loved it!
Damn! I think this is even better than Metallica's version, and I love them and this song!
I come here every once in a while to listen to this. This is epic shit, man.
She does Hetfield better than Hetfield.
I am blown away!
Holy fuck, a fantastic cover. It may have beat Sum41 doing Master of Puppets (theirs was live tho)
Nickleback Live. Check it out!
Damn! Listen to the drums on this !!!! Holy shit batman!!
yeah........
Super love
This is a sort of ''how to actually sing this'' for Hetfield lol
nah, the performance in canada in '87 beats this by a mile.
James Hetfield, you're fired!
Jesus this is Beautiful
Shows how good the band is, and she rocks
vocals are amazing
I like it it's a good cover but I would brought up the bass just a tad because cleaned cliff was a big part of their sound
In my opinion the instrumentals are good but they’re missing the power in the original song, if that makes sense. When Hetfield sings in the original, you could feel the emotion, as if he was the person actually sitting on the electric chair. These vocals don’t have the emotions they’re just technically good, thats all.
Where can I get the backing track for this?
Better than nowadays James
bad cover.. the drums are playing in time :P (seriously this is one of the few covers of metallica that doesn't completely piss me off, to those that know me that's saying something. Damn fine job) (also, when are you guys coming home again?)
SIIICK! 🤘
wow is this good.
I like Halestorm but this is too neat and polished. The original version just has this sound that this one is missing
This track shreds.
Long time tallica fan here (started listening in 86). Amazing cover, kudos to everyone in the band. Did a great job, with much respect to to original. Going to see ya for the second time in Nov. I'll happily continue to support yas as long as you play metal/rock
Now if they'd cover For Whom The Bells Toll or Fade to Black
Damn good cover. Love Halestorm!
So cool 😍

I'm sorry
Horrible just plain flat out horrible
Lacks aggression and more crunch on the distortion and yeah less screaming on the chorus
Can someone take her vocals and put it over the original?
Y’all gotta cover Trust by Megadeth.
Orgasmic shit right here. My favorite voice in modern metal covering my favorite band.
Horrible. Just horrible.
The vocals are unnecessary forced.
Ain't gonna lie, this sucks!
Can we just pretend you are Metallica from now on?
The instrumentals sucks, but her voice is AMAZING. Much better than the original. Someone please take her voice and put it in the original instrumentals, it would stay perfect!
I feel kinda dirty that I like this more than the original.
Well done on the vocals and you orettymuch made it your own
Nice, but faaaaaar from that feelings. Metallica is only one.
Oh shit James watch out she dose this song better than you lol
I believe lzzy should do Revolution is my Name(Pantera)
Killer fakin vocals!
Her voice can definitely take you on a journey right along with her.
My neck of the woods. Rock on.
I honestly tried to give the band multiple chances. They are just terrible. The talentless, 3-chord Nirvana of the day.
This band makes me hate metallica this band is pure garbage
Longtime Metallica fan here:
WELL DONE! This was a surprisingly good cover.
She's got more balls than Hetfield.
A great song from my favorite band that is done its due justice. Very well done.
OMFG This voice!!!! :0
Master of puppets cover please :)
Why isn't Lizzy considered one of the best vocalist ever?!?!
Jeez I originally thought Halestorm was a generic rock band. This and Straight to the Heart are fantastic.
damn that solo, holy shit its awesome
Janis Joplin - Take another piece of my Heart
REDBONES - Come and get your love
Ozzy - Momma I'm coming home
Van Halen - Hot for Teacher
Pantera - Cemetery Gates
Nine Inch Nails - Hurt
Really love to hear their take on these songs on the 4th cover album .
Johnny cash did hurt.. There's very few who can top that.
Aight, not gonna lie this is pretty bomb. Well done
I thought Lzzy couldnt handle the vocals on this...
Please forgive me for doubting you I'll never do it again
Wicked\\V//
Damn, Arjay...Stop holdin' back !!
I could listen to Lzzy sing a ...grocery list.
I think Halestorm said it better. this woman used her voice more strongly. Metallica did not say so hard. I wish he had one of his more well known songs.
