Enter Sandman Lyrics:
Say your prayers, little one, don't forget, my son
To include everyone
I tuck you in, warm within, keep you free from sin
'Til the Sandman, he comes

Sleep with one eye open
Gripping your pillow tight

Exit light
Enter night
Take my hand
We're off to never-never land

Something's wrong, shut the light, heavy thoughts tonight
And they aren't of Snow White
Dreams of war, dreams of liars, dreams of dragons' fire
And of things that will bite, yeah

Sleep with one eye open
Gripping your pillow tight

Exit light
Enter night
Take my hand
We're off to never-never land
Yeah, yeah

Now I lay me down to sleep (now I lay me down to sleep)
Pray the Lord my soul to keep (pray the Lord my soul to keep)
If I die before I wake (if I die before I wake)
Pray the Lord my soul to take (pray the Lord my soul to take)
Hush, little baby, don't say a word
And never mind that noise you heard
It's just the beast under your bed
In your closet, in your head

Exit light
Enter night
Grain of sand
Exit light
Enter night
Take my hand
We're off to never-never land (yeah)

Oh, yeah, yeah, no
We're off to never-never land
Take my hand
We're off to never-never land
Take my hand
We're off to never-never land
We're off to never-never land
We're off to never-never land
We're off to never-never land

[SuperRoo_]

Now I want to see Metallica cover "Cirice".

[jessicashackle]

This version is quite haunting in the beginning, and wasn't expecting the guitar. Hell yeah, I love it.

[mattyone]

It is recognisable, but also sounds like a Ghost song. That is quite impressive.

[RADLADRICK]

This is brilliant .
Metal / goth / hard rock / psychedelic rock - whatever ya want to call it - this guy found a way to do what has been done already and but put his own idealism into the world of Rock. Very clever and imaginary.

[mirasol]

The marriage between two epic metal bands. It's like listening to Metallica but with the Ghost vibes. Absolutely stunning 👏👏👏

[frankc.]

Damn, the piano on the chorus transforms the Metallica to a signature Ghost sound. I love it!

[drsmitty]

The addition of the piano makes it a much better cover. I’m usually not a huge fan of covers but this one is awesome cause I can listen to this and listen to Metallica’s version and have a totally different experience. Fantastic.

[jaredarseneault]

Love them or Hate them, you can’t deny the musicianship with these guys is stellar!

[prodigaIProdigy]

It was really visionary of James Hetfield to write a song for Ghost, 30 years in advance

[kimsteele]

The clergy approves. As does my father, my father's father, my father's father's father, my father's father's father's father...

[thebiggoodwolf]

Life long Metallica fan here, and this absolutely SLAPS!! I guarantee the band loves this.

[JustJack]

I'd love to see Ghost cover more Metallica songs with their own rendition, this was a fucking killer, outstanding job guys, seriously and Tobias's vocals just fit right in, honestly the best rendition of a Metallica song I've ever heard

[shreyas]

I watched Ghost open for Metallica live in Berlin two years ago....this is a dream come true

[rottenfish]

I’m so glad I found this band (even if I am super late) their music makes me so Gods damn happy!! Don’t even get me started on the members, I absolutely adore them all!! I love watching their dynamics and interactions up on stage and in interviews. I’m so in love with everything about this band 🤍💀

[wuphat]

This is what a cover should be--reverent to the original, but re-interpreted in such a way to make it something completely new.

Well done.

[justlex]

I love how ghost always add something new to covers, making the song they cover something different and beautiful. I love the song so much <3

[andrewpappas]

This song fits Ghost so well, I love this

[encinocervantez]

I love how this sounds like a combination of all four Ghost albums.

[cantoffendanyone]

Fucking love when these guys do covers. I want them them to cover Dead Man’s Party by Oingo Boingo so bad. Also Banana Rama’s Cruel Summer

[ejune]

Wow if I didn't grow up on Metallica and never heard this song before, I would never expect this song was a cover. This is so ghost, Tobias makes it so fresh and new great job! 💜
