About My Apocalypse

Not to be confused with the song My Apocalypse by Arch Enemy."My Apocalypse" is the forty-first single by American heavy metal band Metallica, and the second from their ninth studio album, Death Magnetic. On August 26, 2008, it was made available for streaming on the band's official website, as well as a download (For Platinum Members Only) from the Death Magnetic website Mission: Metallica. This was followed by its availability for purchase as a digital single in the iTunes Store. The band first performed this song in the United States in Charlottesville, Virginia, on October 17, 2009, during their World Magnetic Tour."'My Apocalypse' was a cool song," remarked bassist Robert Trujillo. "It was fast; it had the thrash element of the past." The name of its parent album is derived from its lyric, "Death magnetic, pulling closer still." At the 2009 Grammy Awards, the single won the "Best Metal Performance" category. More recently, a new introduction to the song was added. Lars Ulrich said, "We've been enjoying playing 'My Apocalypse' out here on the road but felt like it could use something extra. We decided that it needed a cool intro to set the mood so James wrote one." more »

Sudden implosion of silenced emotions
Buried beneath a scarred heart for too long
Delusions of hope fading away
Dying like leaves on frozen soil

My apocalypse is near
I can feel the end, coming here

Neglecting existence repulse and repent
An endless journey into the morbid
Whispering voices distorting all senses
Buried beneath a scarred heart for too long

My apocalypse is near
I can feel the end coming here

My apocalypse is near
I can feel the end coming here

The bitter taste of a dying dream
Shine the light on our shadows and illusions
