Lay beside me, tell me what they've done Speak the words I want to hear, to make my demons run The door is locked now but it's opened if you're true If you can understand the me, then I can understand the you Lay beside me, under wicked skies Through black of day, dark of night, we share this paralyze The door cracks open but there's no sun shining through Black heart scarring darker still, but there's no sun shining through No, there's no sun shining through No, there's no sun shining What I've felt, what I've known Turn the pages, turn the stone Behind the door, should I open it for you?

What I've felt, what I've known Sick and tired, I stand alone Could you be there, 'cause I'm the one who waits for you Or are you unforgiven, too?

Come beside me, this won't hurt, I swear She loves me not, she loves me still, but she'll never love again She lay beside me but she'll be there when I'm gone Black heart scarring darker still, yes, she'll be there when I'm gone Yes, she'll be there when I'm gone Dead sure she'll be there What I've felt, what I've known Turn the pages, turn to stone Behind the door, should I open it for you?

Lay beside me, tell me what I've done The door is closed, so are your eyes But now I see the sun, now I see the sun Yes, now I see it What I've felt, what I've known Turn the pages, turn the stone Behind the door, should I open it for you?

I wonder if metallica intended to do a pun considering the title of the song "The Unforgiven II". The second unforgiven person would be the girl who loves him. I love this song.

General Comment It has more emotion in it than the first one if you ask me Locust on March 09, Link.

No One Ask You General Comment Excellent does not begin to describe this song its so good it just draws you in. My Interpretation From my perspective, this song is about forgiveness.

The lyrics come from a man who has a broken heart. He has been through a stormy past and he blames himself for his failed relationships. He has not forgiven himself for his perceived failures and is looking for an escape.

This is also reinforced by saying "Lay beside me, tell me what I've done" because he doesnt understand why he keeps failing and is unaware of the consequences of his actions.

By saying "I take this key And I bury it in you Because you're unforgiven too" means that he is searching for someone who has shared his painful experience so they can both heal each other's hearts. He must feel that he cant trust another person unless they understand what he's been through. He cannot see himself for what he really is.

He is never free because he solely reliant on other people to find his identity. However, the one he seeks is most likely broken and sees themself through others as well. In a way, the man and his lover act as reflections of each other. Because they both look for themselves in the other person who can understand them, they will only see their own tormented self through the other person.

This perpetuates the man's long string of unsuccessful relationships. He must learn to forgive himself instead of looking for forgiveness in others, otherwise he will never be completely forgiven.

There is a quote that relates to this song. My Interpretation She doesn't mean a girl My Interpretation I agree with the poster who feels it's about an introverted guy who meets a girl, but with a different spin: It's the character from the first song, who feels like everyone in life has betrayed him everyone's "unforgiven". He starts a relationship with a woman and he wonders if she may finally be different from everyone else he feels has labeled and betrayed him.

The song is largely about him contemplating whether to totally open himself up to her "behind the door should I open it for you? In the end, for whatever reason, he decides she's the same as everyone else "because you're unforgiven too. He kills her "she loves me not, she loves me still, but she'll never love again" and resumes his life feeling betrayed by everyone. General Comment no guy kills his wife in Gundam-W , peple compare this song with Unforgive bacause it is called Unforgiven 2, like how some movie are compared to their sequels even though they may be completely different stories , Unforgiven is much more dark and depressing which is why I like it better than Unforgiven II Sephiroth on May 23, Link.
