Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture Sally Average	#1 by Sally Gray at Apr 10, 1972 at 8:25 PM EST
	One of my favorite Metalica songs. I think it's about when a person lives a life of depression, they can't feel any other emotions, happiness, love, ect. So when they finally get through the depression, they feel nothing, and it's feels better to feel depressed than feel nothing at all.

No Picture Alexxx <3 Lead Player	#2 by Alexxx <3 at Mar 5, 1973 at 7:50 PM EST
	interesting opinions. i think this song describes people who deliberately do things to put themselves in a shit position and then use the situation to pity themselves and gain sympathy from others. my cousin has done that, but he gained no sympathy from me, he only lost my respect for him. btw, the lyrics aren't right. here are the lyrics from metallica.com Oh, poor twisted me Oh, poor twisted me I feast on sympathy I chew on suffer I chew on agony Swallow whole the pain Oh, it's too good to be That all this misery Is just for, oh, poor twisted me Poor twisted me Poor mistreated me Poor mistreated me I drown without a sea Lungs fill with sorrow Lungs fill with misery Inhaling the deep, dark blue Oh, woe is me Such a burden to be The poor mistreated me To finally reach the shore, survive the storm Now you're bare and cold, the sea was warm So warm, you bathe your soul again Baby, again and again and again You finally reached the shore, survived the storm Now you're bare and cold, the sea was warm So warm, you bathe your soul again Good to feel my friend Oh, woe is me Such a burden to be Oh, poor twisted me Yo, poor twisted me

	I spelled Metallica wrong.

No Picture sebastian Professional	#4 by sebastian at Aug 10, 1989 at 6:19 PM EST
	Yeah, pleased to be the first metallica fan to write in my opinion. This is a great song. I didn't like it at first - i thought it was kinda blatant. Then I realized the meaning and it kinda applies to a lot of people. It is about a person that feels sorrow for himself and he feeds on the sorrow of others. Basically, this individual is digging themself into a deeper whole to eat the sorrow.
