The Unforgiven III is the seventh track on Death Magnetic. It is a sequel to "The Unforgiven" and "The Unforgiven II" off Metallica (The Black Album) and ReLoad respectively.
"The Unforgiven III" does not start with the horn intro used in the first two. Instead, it has a long piano solo. This is the first Metallica song to have piano in it, giving it a distinct sound.
The song was premiered live to the world in Oslo, Norway at the Telanor Arena on April 14, 2010.
Lyrics
How could he know this new dawn's light
Would change his life forever?
Set sail to sea, but pulled off course
By the light of golden treasure
Was he the one causing pain
With his careless dreaming?
Been afraid, always afraid,
Of the things he's feeling
He could just be gone
He would just sail on
He'll just sail on
How can I be lost, if I've got nowhere to go?
Search for seas of gold,
How come it's got so cold?
How can I be lost? In remembrance I relive
And how can I blame you,
When it's me I can't forgive?
These days drift on inside a fog
Thick and suffocating
His sinking life, outside its hell
Inside, intoxicating
He's run aground Like his life,
Water much too shallow
Slipping fast, down with his ship,
Fading in the shadows
Now a castaway
They've all gone away
They've gone away
How can I be lost, if I've got nowhere to go?
Search for seas of gold,
How come it's got so cold?
How can I be lost? In remembrance I relive
And how can I blame you,
When it's me I can't forgive?
Forgive me
Forgive me not
Why can't I forgive me?
Set sail to sea, but pulled off course
By the light of golden treasure
How could he know this new dawn's light
Would change his life forever?
How can I be lost, if I've got nowhere to go?
Search for seas of gold,
How come it's got so cold?
How can I be lost? In remembrance I relive
And how can I blame you,
When it's me I can't forgive?
