The song is about the scars James Hetfield bears from his alcoholism, which remain even though he’s sober now. The metaphor of the window that is clean on the inside and dirty on the outside reveals that while he sees himself as a new, clean man, other people can still immediately tell that he’s had...
Dirty Window Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I see my reflection in the window
It looks different, so different than what you see
Projecting judgement on the world
This house is clean baby, this house is clean
[Refrain]
Am I who I think I am?
Am I who I think I am?
Am I who I think I am?
I look out my window and see it's gone wrong
Court is in session and I slam my gavel down
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm judge and I'm jury and I'm executioner too
I'm judge and I'm jury and I'm executioner too
[Chorus]
Projector, protector, rejector, infector
Projector, rejector, infector, injector, defector, rejector
[Verse 2]
I see my reflection in the window
This window clean inside, dirty on the out
I'm looking different than me
This house is clean baby, this house is clean
[Refrain]
Am I who I think I am?
Am I who I think I am?
Am I who I think I am?
I look out my window and see it's gone wrong
Court is in session and now I slam my gavel down
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm judge and I'm jury and I'm executioner too
I'm judge and I'm jury and I'm executioner too
[Chorus]
Projector, protector, rejector, infector
Projector, rejector, infector, injector, defector, ejector, detector
[Bridge]
I, I, I, I
Ha ha ha ha...
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm judge and I'm jury and I'm executioner too
I'm judge and I'm jury and I'm executioner too
[Chorus]
Projector, protector, rejector, infector
Projector, rejector, infector, injector, defector, rejector
[Outro]
I, I, I, I
I drink from the cup of denial
I'm judging the world from my throne
I drink from the cup of denial
I'm judging the world from my throne, yeah
