Metallica is an American heavy metal band from Los Angeles, California, formed in 1981.
Their early releases included fast tempos, instrumentals, and aggressive musicianship that placed them as one of the "big four" of the thrash metal subgenre alongside Slayer, Megadeth, and Anthrax during the genre's development into a popular style. The band earned a growing fan base in the underground music community and critical acclaim, with the 1986 release Master of Puppets described as one of the most influential and "heavy" thrash metal albums. The band achieved substantial commercial success with Metallica (1991), which debuted at number one on the Billboard 200. With this release the band expanded its musical direction resulting in an album that appealed to a more mainstream audience.
The band has sold an estimated 100 million records worldwide as of the release of their latest album, Death Magnetic. As of September 2008, Metallica is the fourth highest-selling music artist since the SoundScan era began tracking sales on May 25, 1991, selling a total of 51,136,000 albums in the United States alone.

Hey
Im your life
Im the one who takes you there
Hey
Im your life
Im the one who cares
They
They betray
Im your only true friend now
They
Theyll betray
Im forever there
Im your dream, make you real
Im your eyes when you must steal
Im your pain when you cant feel
Sad but true
Im your dream, mind astray
Im your eyes while youre away
Im your pain while you repay
You know its sad but true
You
Youre my mask
Youre my cover, my shelter
You
Youre my mask
Youre the one whos blamed
Do
Do my work
Do my dirty work, scapegoat
Do
Do my deeds
For youre the one whos shamed
Im your dream, make you real
Im your eyes when you must steal
Im your pain when you cant feel
Sad but true
Im your dream, mind astray
Im your eyes while youre away
Im your pain while you repay
You know its sad but true
Hate
Im your hate
Im your hate when you want love
Pay
Pay the price
Pay, for nothings fair
Hey
Im your life
Im the one who took you here
Hey
Im your life
And I no longer care
Im your dream, make you real
Im your eyes when you must steal
Im your pain when you cant feel
Sad but true
Im your truth, telling lies
Im your reasoned alibis
Im inside open your eyes
Im you
Sad but true
