A child is born.
He is raised and forced to conform through pain.
He vows to himself that he will never lose his will.
As a man he never lives for himself.
Everything pure he's ever felt never shows through his actions.
It's too late to turn back.
He will never forgive himself.
As on old man he prepares for death.
He has nothing but his regret.
@singsong42 Man... The way you've described it....
Isn't everybody's life like this?
Everyone eventually make choices he/she regrets. Even after years of trying forgetting them. It still haunts them.

Sometimes it's hard to find peace that way.
Even though you beat yearself up somestimes. You'll still need to try

@singsong42 terrible...no wonder 11 yr old are committing suicide at an alarming rate. C'mon, Metallica, why you gotta stay dark?? With songs lyrics like this, what hope is there for a savior?? Are there really some who've walked this earth who believe they're worthy to carry such a weight? I'm not judging, but I am really disappointed in Metallica rn.

@singsong42 he didn't die with any regrets, he died humbly while being bitter because he knew what others didn't but...you know how everyone knows everything accept when to stop being ignorant. You have the best description though

Best description ever!
They way you explained the meaning makes the song more clear and very sad in the same time.
Metallica's philosophy is very special and very deep in meaning and they adopt beating around the bush and very indirect approach, and you need to think in deep to elicit the profound meaning.

He forgives not himself. He forgives no one else.
