In My World Lyrics
[Intro: Scott Ian]
They gonna put me in jail?
Man, I'm already in jail
Don't they know that my life
Is just one big cell?
[Verse 1]
I'll bite the hand that feeds me
And I could give a damn
If that hand needs me
Oh, why can't you leave me alone?
A lie may fool someone else
But it tells you the truth
You're weak, just another clone
[Bridge]
I just want my life to do whatever I like
Yeah, it's a selfish need
To have no responsibility
So I'll say what I'm gonna say
'Cause I'm going to Hell anyway
I'd rather be alone
In my world
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid
Nothing touches me
I'm a walking razor blade
Face the face of fear
Face the face of death
Laugh when others tear
Hate when others laugh (Laugh, laugh)
[Chorus]
In my world it's cold
My defense is like stone
No one gets inside 'cause
In my world I'm home
In my world I loathe
And you'll always pay a toll
No one gets inside 'cause
In my world I'm home, yeah
[Verse 2]
An adult at thirteen
My childhood was a dream
A full clout nightmare, a sight unseen
My greatest fear as a kid
One which I always kept hid
Was to come home from school and
Find my mother dead
[Bridge]
I just want my life to do whatever I like
Yeah, it's a selfish need
To have no responsibility
So I'll say what I'm gonna say
'Cause I'm going to Hell anyway
I'd rather be alone
In my world
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid
Nothing touches me
I'm a walking razor blade
Face the face of fear
Face the face of death
Laugh when others tear
Hate when others laugh (Laugh, laugh)
[Chorus]
In my world it's cold
My defense is like stone
No one gets inside 'cause
In my world I'm home
In my world I loathe
And you'll always pay a toll
No one gets inside 'cause
In my world I'm home
Whooooaaaaah!
[Guitar solo]
[Chorus]
I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid
Nothing touches me
I'm a walking razor blade
Face the face of fear
Face the face of death
Laugh when others tear
Hate when others laugh
[Outro]
I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid
Nothing touches me
I'm a walking razor blade
I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid
I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid
I'm not afraid
