Metallica's, "Fade To Black"

Metallica's, "Fade To Black"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
Fear in your eyes, it's later than you realize...
Why They're Nonsensical:
This one has always bothered me. How can *anything* possibly be later than you realize? It might be later than you think, but once you realize it, it's not later than that anymore!

Metallica's, "One"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
Landmine has taken my sight
Taken my speech, taken my hearing
Taken my speech, taken my hearing
Why They're Nonsensical:
If the landmine has taken his speech, how can he be singing?

Metallica's, "St. Anger"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
I'm madly in anger with you.
Why They're Nonsensical:
If you're mad, you are angry so this line is redundant. Furthermore, how can you be 'in anger' with someone?!

Metallica's, "The Small Hours"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
Time is an illusion rising from time
Why They're Nonsensical:
What? Time rising from time? It's not Metallica's fault, though; they didn't write this song. (Some other band did; Metallica just covered it.)
