Metallica-Moterbreath

metallica's 3rd track of the 1983 thrash metal album kill em all song titled motorbreath

composed by hetfield

In the lyrics it seems like the life is compared with a fast vehicle. Maybe it would be a good metaphor because the vehicle (-live) is driving fast through everything (every parts in live) without stopping or turning back. It was rumored that the song would be inspired by the impact of cocaine. "Make what you want of your life - whatever is in your way !"

"Living and dying, laughing and crying"
- Good times and bad times ...
"Once you have seen it you will never be the same"
- ... will influence you
"Life in the fast lane is just how it seems"
"Hard and it is heavy, dirty and mean"
- Life can be difficult

"Motorbreath"
"It's how I live my life"
"I can't take it any other other way"
- I only want to live my life as I want
"Motorbreath"
"The signs of living fast"
"It is going to take you breath away"
- It describes the way of life

"Don't stop for nothing it's full speed or nothing"
- You have to keep your own intentions
"I am taking down you know whatever is in my way"
- Take your chances - whatever is in your way !
"Getting your kicks as you are shooting the line"
- Even when something is not running as you had expected of your life ...
"Sending the shivers up and down your spine"
- ... don't give up and show others that you can achieve your aims if you want

"Those people who tell you not to take chances"
"They are all missing on what life is about"
"You only live once so take hold of the chance"
"Don't end up like others the same song and dance"
- Just as it is said in the lyrics of this verse

Living and dying laughing and crying
Once you have seen it you will never be the same
Life in the fast lane is just how it seems
Hard and it is heavy dirty and mean

Motorbreath
Its how I live my life
I can't take it any other way
Motorbreath
The sign of living fast
It is going to take
Your breath away

Don't stop for nothing its full speed or nothing
I am taking down you know whatever is in my way
Getting your kicks as you are shooting the line
Sending the shivers up and down my spine

Motorbreath
Its how I live my life
I can't take it any other way
Motorbreath
The sign of living fast
It is going to take
Your breath away

Those people who tell you not to take chances
They are all missing on what life is about
You only live once so take hold of the chance
Don't end up like others the same song and dance

Motorbreath
Its how I live my life
I can't take it any other way
Motorbreath
The sign of living fast
It is going to take
Your breath away
