Lay beside me, and tell me what they've done
And speak the words I want to hear, to make my demons run
The door is locked now, but it's opened if your true
If you can understand the me, then I can understand the you
Lay beside me, under the wicked sky
Through black of day, dark of night, we share this paralyze
The door cracks open, but there's no sun shinning through
Black heart scarring darker still, but there's no sun shinning through
No there's no sun shinning through
No there's no sun shinning...
What I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you?
What I've felt, what I've known
Sick and tired, I stand alone
Could you be there, 'cause I'm the one that waits for you
Or are you unforgiven too?
Come lay beside me, this won't hurt I swear
She loves me not, she loves me still, but she'll never love again
She lay beside me, but she'll be there when I'm gone
Black heart scarring darker still,
Yeah, she'll be there when I'm gone
Yeah, she'll be there when I'm gone
Dead sure she'll be there...
What I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you?
What I've felt, what I've known
Sick and tired, I stand alone
Could you be there, 'cause I'm the one that waits for you
Or are you unforgiven too?
(solo)
Lay beside me, tell me what I've done
The door is closed, so are your eyes, but now I see the sun
Now I see the sun
Yes, now I see it...
What I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you?
What I've felt, what I've known
So sick and tired, I stand alone
Could you be there, 'cause I'm the one that waits
The one who waits for you
What I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you? (so I dub thee unforgiven)
What I've felt
What I've known
I take this key (never free) and I bury it (never me) in you
Because your unforgiven too
Never free, Never me
'Cause your unforgiven, too

The play on words and similarities with the original are really cool.

I don't think it's better then the unforgiven1 but still it's by far the best song on this album. The video(I've seen him only one time so I can't remeber it perfectly) was very cool.

I got the album and when this song came on i was like "Yay unforgiven" (I hadn't looked at the back) but then the riff burst in and i was like WHOA! I love this song, I cant see why people think metallica sold out on this album because they cut their hair! Jeez, like Lars said, if people dont wanna listen to them because of their hair, then they dont want that kind of listener. Metallica rule and are still going strong after over 20 years. They ain't done yet!

Uh dude........its not because of the hair. People consider that what we would call a cowinky dink. If you honestly believe the dislike of Metallica grew so high just because of the hair......you dont know much. But the song is great.

The most favourable song on the album. Simple acoustic guitars being played. I'm not really shure how to compare this with Unforgiven I, but this song is just as good. A real slow ballad u would say, and i really like the way Kirk do the slidings on the kickass solo. Amazing lyrics, really...

Unforgiven 1 is so much better in my opinion, not to say this is bad, this is good, just 1 is a lot better

Unforgiven 1 is better because of it's solo.

this song takes me back to my soph. year of high school - i use to put this song up on a pedestal but then quit listening to metallica for awhile... just finished up listening to this track and automatically remembered why i use to do such a thing... this song is excellent and one of the more standout tracks on this album....

Great song. Overratted by a few, yet overlooked by many more.

this really matches up well with the original - it may not be as good if it had to stand on its own against the first part, but when put together, it is killer!
