A Review About "The God That Failed" by METALLICA

Hi guys. Today I want to write a review about "The God That Failed" by Metallica.

This song is all about James Hatfield's mother and her refusal to be treated for cancer because of her Christian beliefs. Those who believe in the Christian sciences do not believe in modern medicine or in seeing a doctor.

So when Hatfield's mother got cancer, the only help she could get was to pray. because of this superstition, his cancer eventually progressed and she died.And this incident caused the creation of this song.

A song which James talks to those who believe in absurd superstitions. if even they know that these beliefs will not work.James believes!!! There is no healing hand, and all of this is a handful of treats given to children by their parents or the community from childhood, and distort the children's beliefs.

Lyrics of this song:

OverviewLyricsOther recordingsListen
Pride you took Pride you feel
Pride that you felt when you'd kneel
Not the word, not the love
Not what you thought from above
It feeds it grows
It clouds all that you will know
Deceit deceive
Decide just what you believe
I see faith in your eyes
Never your hear the discouraging lies
I hear faith in your cries
Broken is the promise, betrayal
The healing hand held back by the deepened nail
Follow the god that failed
Find your peace
Find your say
Find the smooth road in your way
Trust you gave
A child to save
Left you cold and him in grave
It feeds it grows
It clouds all that you will know
Deceit deceive
Decide just what you believe
I see faith in your eyes
Never you hear the discouraging lies
I hear faith in your cries
Broken is the promise, betrayal
The healing hand held back by the deepened nail
Follow the god that failed
I see faith in your eyes
Broken is the promise, betrayal
The healing hand held back by the deepened nail
Follow the god that failed
Pride you took pride you feel
Pride that you felt when you'd kneel
Trust you gave a child to save
Left you cold and him in grave
I see faith in your eyes
Never you hear the discouraging lies
I hear faith in your cries
Broken is the promise, betrayal
The healing hand held back by deepened nail
Follow the god that failed
Follow the god that failed
Broken is the promise, betrayal, betrayal yeah
