Megadeth - Die Dead Enough

It's twilight and I wake up hot
My body's soaked in a cold, cold sweat
I reenact the lurid scenes
And clawed engravings in my head

Oh, I can't punch hard enough and I run
I can't kick high enough and I run
I can't shoot straight enough and I run
I can't hold on enough and I run
Oh, I can't stay down enough and I run
I can't take pain enough and I run
I can't bleed fast enough
I can't die dead enough

The air is thick, but the oxygen's thin
My heart is beating like a drum, boom!
And ice is flowing through my veins
Explosives on my lips and in my lungs

Oh, I can't punch hard enough and I run
I can't kick high enough and I run
I can't shoot straight enough and I run
I can't hold on enough and I run
Oh, I can't stay down enough and I run
I can't take pain enough and I run
I can't bleed fast enough
I can't die dead enough

I don't know what I'm running from
And I don't know where I'm running to
There's something deep and strange inside of me I see

I don't know what I'm running from
And I don't know where I'm running to
Something's compelling me to run into the dark

And now I am more driven than before
And now I live just to settle score
And now I feel the nearness of your breath
Now I introduce you to your death

I am more driven than before
I live just to settle score
I feel the nearness of your breath
I introduce you to your death
I can't punch hard enough
I can't kick high enough
I can't shoot straight enough
I can't hold on enough

I can't stay down enough, die dead enough
I can't take pain enough, die dead enough
I can't bleed fast enough, die dead enough
I can't die dead enough, die dead enough

Megadeth - Ashes In Your Mouth

People have round shoulders from bearing heavy loads
And the soldiers liberate them, laying mines along their roads
Sorrow paid for valor is too much to recall
Of the countless corpses piled up along the wailing wall

Melting down all metals, turning plows and shears to swords
Shun words of the Bible, we need implements of war
Chalklines and red puddles of those who have been slain
Destiny, that crooked schemer, says the dead shall rise again

Where do we go from here?
And should we really care?
The end is finally here
God have mercy!

Now we've rewritten history
The one thing we've found out
Sweet taste of vindication
It turns to ashes in your mouth

Where do we go from here?
And should we really care?
The end is finally here
God have mercy!
If you're fighting to live
It's okay to die
The answer to your question is:
"Welcome to tomorrow."

Where do we go from here?
God have mercy!

Where do we go from here?
And should we really care?
The end is finally here
God have mercy!

Where do we go from here?
And should we really care?
The end is finally here
God have mercy!

Mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy

Megadeth - I'll Get Even

I'm lonely and abandoned
Washed up, left for dead
I'm lost inside the desert
Of every word you said

Like a nuclear reactor
Or TNT
I'm thinking about the times
When you lied to me

All the innuendo
Caught up on your hook
I was just a name
In your little black book

Ah, I'll get even with you

I'm bitter and I'm twisted
I haven't slept in days
I'm lonely and I'm angry
I can't make it go away

I'm like a bomb that's ticking
I got voices in my head
I got a doll with needles in
Wishing you were dead

I'll get you back somehow
That's what I'm gonna do
I'll get you back somehow
Your nightmare coming true

Ah, I'll get even with you
Ah, that's what I'm gonna do
Gonna get even with you

You better look behind you
'Cause there I'm gonna be
I'll be standing in the shadows
With who I used to be

He's slightly schizophrenic
Me and me and me and me agree
That you are gonna pay
For what you did to me

Ah, I'll get even with you
Gonna get even with you
Ah, that's what I'm gonna do
I'm gonna do
Ah, I'll get even with you

Megadeth - Super Collider

When you feel life is bringing you down
And you see that you’re all alone
When your friends – they have all run out
That is when you will know I'm the one

On the high road
(On the high road)
I will take you higher
(I will take you higher)
Till the world explodes
(Till the world explodes)
Just like a super collider
(like a super collider)

This could be all the heaven you see
Life can be wicked, mean and cold
Could this be the end of your living hell
Come with me and I’ll free your soul

On the high road
(On the high road)
I will take you higher
(I will take you higher)
Till the world explodes
(Till the world explodes)
Just like a super collider
(like a super collider)

Just one thing that I want you to know
You don’t need to be on your own
No more feeling left out in the cold
Take my hand and I’ll take you home

On the high road
(On the high road)
I will take you higher
(I will take you higher)
Till the world explodes
(Till the world explodes)
Just like a super collider
(like a super collider)

On the high road
(On the high road)
I will take you higher
(I will take you higher)
Till the world explodes
(Till the world explodes)
Just like a super collider
(super collider yeah)

On the high road
I will take you higher
Till the world explodes
Just like a super collider

Megadeth - Wake Up Dead

I sneak in my own house,
It's four in the morning,
I had too much to drink,
Said I was out with the boys,
I creep in my bedroom,
I slip into bed,
I know if I wake her,
I'll wake up dead,

I wonder, will she find out,
About the other, other lover,
Diana.

Wake up dead, you die,
Wake up dead, and buried,
Wake up dead, you die,
Wake up dead.

Megadeth - Life In Hell

Busted, caught red-handed again
You can’t be trusted, born to lose, you’ll never win
You’re so corrupted, you stand before us condemned
So maladjusted to-the-world we’re living-and-dying-in

Spy versus spy, you will never have friends
You deny, the truth of where you’ve been
You get caught, and then the “blame-game” begins

A couple drinks and then you’ll feel ok
A couple pills makes the world go away
What the hell, you’re gonna die anyway and you’ll say…

I’m a disease, and I’m addicted to myself, ha!
I’m all I need, I’m gonna live and die in hell

No fingerprints, you erased you exist
Kill or be killed, how you get your kicks
Over, and over, you just couldn’t resist

Only a fool would do what you’ve done
You lie, you steal, and you cheat everyone
When your caught in your most despicable deed
You plead the court for Diplomatic Immunity

You may be eloquent with your savoir fare
But each time the smoke clears, another body’s there
You’ve had more than your share of good advice
There’s nothing left to say, now except “Have a life”

Their faces haunt your dreams, each, and every night
When it gets too much, in your ring there’s cyanide
Now everything fades out and you depart just like a ghost
The Devil says, “Welcome to Hell, I will be your host”

There’s no reason left to say goodbye!
There’s no reason left to live or die
Judgment’s waiting, it’s the end of the line for you

Your existence and this twisted game
The definition of criminally insane
It won’t be long until you do it again, you’ll see!

I’m a disease, life in hell
I’m all I need, die in hell

Megadeth - We’ll Be Back

The timing is right to exact my revenge
Spilling enemy blood, I will fight to the end
No more lying-in wait, just to even the score
There’s a price to be paid, now it’s time for war

I’m a soldier of fortune, of torture, and pain
I bash in your skull until no teeth remain
A ‘most-deadly’ weapon, pulverizing your head
With each crushing blow, how you wish you were dead

Just when you think it’s safe, I attack; we’ll be back
When you least expect your fate; I attack; we’ll be back
A kick to your face, one move, big mistake; we’ll be back
Let down your guard, full-on frontal attack, I’ll be back!

No use screaming for mercy, no use makin’ a sound
Still, you step right up, and get smacked back down
In the heat of battle, blood congeals on the floor
Another life-force bleeds out, another soul out the door

Antisocial, sadistic; the “Deity of War”
I stuff body bags, and I’m packing the morgue
No time for remorse over unclaimed remains
It’s just flotsam and jetsam, and it’s circling the drain

Megadeth - Into The Lungs Of Hell

...

Megadeth - How The Story Ends

Far off on the horizon you can barely see their torches
But rest assured they're out there and they're coming
If you listen, the sound is growing nearer of infantry
Marching out a hypnotizing rhythm

Destroying every town
Light it up and burn it down
You may not like it now
But this is how the story ends

Above the ring of clashing steel, they raise flags of war
A sign to all the warriors who cannot hear
Amidst smoke of cannonballs, they bang the drums of death
Pound a cadence out for those who cannot see

Destroying every town
Light it up and burn it down
You may not like it now
But this is how the story ends

Poison the well and scorch the earth
Everything is slashed and burnt
You may not like it now
But this is how the story ends

Destroying every town
Light it up and burn it down
You may not like it now
But this is how the story ends

Poison the well and scorch the earth
Everything is slashed and burnt
You may not like it now
But this is how the story ends

Megadeth - The Sick, The Dying… And The Dead!

(Bring out your dead
Bring out your dead
Bring out your dead
Bring out your dead)

Invaders came on phantom ships
Sailed the Black Sea west to Sicily, yeah, yeah
The sick, the dying, and the dead
All that was left from this cursed disease, yeah, yeah

It was the fleas onboard that bit infected rats
Got blood inside of the fleas, yeah, yeah
Soon the ghost ships tied up to the docks
The path of the plague was complete, yeah, yeah

The sweet smell of rosies, a pocketful of posies
You can't mask the fragrance of death in their beds
There's typhus in the air, and ashes everywhere
Amongst the sick, the dying, and the dead

Feral creatures feasting on the dead
Devour rancid human meat, yeah, yeah
Death and sickness permeate their bones
Rich or poor, they're dragged through the streets, yeah, yeah

Open up your eyes, so you can see
All the sick, the dying, and the dead

Die, die, die!
Die, die, die!
Die, die, die!
Die, die, die!

The sick, the dying...
And the dead

Megadeth - Shadow Of Deth

Auxilium meum a domino

The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures
He leadeth me beside the still waters
He restoreth my soul

He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his names sake
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I will fear no evil: for thou art with me
Thy rod and thy staff they comfort me

Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies
Thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life
And I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever

Megadeth - You're Dead

When someone becomes nothing to anyone

Wilts feelings have died

Anyone would know it

They set out stick and stones

They say they crossed my bones

I say I don’t get mad I get even

before they do.

Spoils go to the victor

I’m dead on time

Your time is going to come

One day I’ll dance on your graves

Even if you’re buried at sea

Till then till when I exact my revenge

I’ll tell them you’re dead to me

We’re all just trying to hold on to anything

You’d think they’d know that’s what we’re trying to do

These wounds are invisible

Underneath the dirt I still see the scars

But then when things got bad we spread our wings and fly away

You’ll take all your riches in the back of a hearse

Your time is going to come

One day I’ll dance on your graves

Even if you’re buried at sea

Till then till when I exact my revenge

I’ll tell them you’re dead to me

One day I’ll dance on your grave

Even if you’re buried at sea

Till then till when I exact my revenge

One day I’ll dance on your graves

Even if you’re buried at sea

Till then till when I exact my revenge

I’ll tell them you’re dead to me

Megadeth - Paranoid

Finished with my woman 'cause she couldn't help me with my mind

People think that I'm insane because I'm frowning all the time

All day long I think of things but nothing seems to satisfy

Think I'll lose my mind if I don't find something to pacify

Can you help me occupy my brain?

Oh yeah

Yeah, yeah

I need someone to show me the things in life that I can't find

I can't see the things that make true happiness, I must be blind

Make a joke and I will sigh and you will laugh and I will cry

Happiness I cannot feel so love to me is so unreal

And so as you hear these words telling you now of my state

I tell you to enjoy life I wish I could but it's too late

It's too late

Too late

(originally recorded by Black Sabbath)

Megadeth - Killing Time

Some people look at you and feel sorry
They see your beady eyes and a soul that is black
It's clear to see, you're a pathological liar
And your alibi was a lie, it was all just an act
And that's a fact

When you start moving your lips, I know that you're lying
So, don't tell me you need me, you're killing my time
Stop saying you're grateful 'cause you're not, your kind is so hateful
I'll make sure I'm ready
I'll make sure that I'm ready to go!

If I told me once, I told me a thousand times
It's just a matter of time, you'll screw the world inside-out
You're a sick, psychopath, you squander everything, and then laugh
You've got to know what goes around comes around
And around!

When you start moving your lips, I know that you're lying
So, don't tell me you need me, you're killing my time
Stop saying you're grateful 'cause you're not, your kind is so hateful
I'll make sure I'm ready
I'll make sure that I'm ready to go!

When you start moving your lips, I know that you're lying
So, don't tell me you need me, you're killing my time
Stop saying you're grateful 'cause you're not, your kind is so hateful
I'll make sure I'm ready
I'll make sure
That I'm ready to go!

Start moving your lips, I know that you're lying
(I know that you're lying)
So, don't tell me you need me, you're killing my time
(You're killing my time)
Stop saying you're grateful 'cause you're not, your kind is so hateful
I'll make sure I'm ready (So hateful...)
I'll make sure that I'm ready to go!

Start moving your lips, I know that you're lying
(I know that you're lying)
So, don't tell me you need me, you're killing my time
(You're killing my time)
Stop saying you're grateful 'cause you're not, your kind is so hateful
I'll make sure I'm ready (So hateful...)
I'll make sure that I'm ready to go!

So hateful
So hateful
Kill my time
So hateful
So hateful
So hateful
So hateful
So hateful
So hateful
Killing time

Megadeth - Architecture Of Aggression

Born from the dark in the black cloak of night

To envelop its prey below, deliver to the light

To eliminate your enemy, hit them in their sleep

And when all is won and lost, the spoils of wars are yours to keep

Great nations built from the bones of the dead

With mud and straw - blood and sweat

You know your worth when your enemies

Praise your architecture of aggression

Praise your architecture of aggression

Ensuing power vacuum, a toppled leader dies

His body fuels the power fire and the flames rise to the sky

One side of his face, a kiss - the other, genocide

Time to pay with your ass, a worldwide suicide

Great nations built from the bones of the dead

With mud and straw - blood and sweat

You know your worth when your enemies

Praise your architecture of aggression

Born from the dark in the black cloak of night

To envelop its prey below, deliver to the light

To eliminate your enemy, hit them in their sleep

And when all is won and lost, the spoils of wars are yours to keep

Great nations built from the bones of the dead

With mud and straw - blood and sweat

You know your worth when your enemies

Praise your architecture of aggression

Great nations built from the bones of the dead

With mud and straw - blood and sweat

You know your worth when your enemies...

Praise your architecture of aggression

Megadeth - Disconnect

Behind closed doors all you live for is taking

That double life of yours has left your whole world shaking

Who are you fooling? I know you hear the laughter

Don't you hear people talking? What is it that your after?

Turn off your conscience

Leave the world outside

Nothing at all can ever make you feel

That anything's so real so you just - Disconnect

The key to save yourself if for nothing else

A tongue can never hold the truth of silence is golden

With a broken heart underneath all of the pain

Do you stroke the pretty scars? The hurt never ends

Turn off your conscience

Leave the world outside

Nothing at all can ever make you feel

That anything's so real so you just - Disconnect

Turn off your conscience

Leave the world outside

Nothing at all can ever make you feel

That anything's so real so you just - Disconnect

Turn off your conscience

Leave the world outside

Nothing at all can ever make you feel

That anything's so real so you just - Disconnect

Megadeth - New World Order

Where hath the apostles gone?
Joining hands with wicked ones
Revelation has come to pass
New World Order will hold the mass

A book written by man
Used to control and command
All rights will be denied
Without the mark you shall die

No confession, all is known
New World Order, you shall be shown

Monitoring all wages
New World Order comes in stages
Currency is obsolete
Feel the agony of defeat

A symbol of society today
A must have or you shall pay
As humans, flesh leads the mind
Just a pawn, the last martyr dies

No confession, all is known
New World Order, you shall be shown

Where hath the apostles gone?
Joining hands with wicked ones
Revelation has come to pass
A New World Order, complete disorder
Will hold the mass

Megadeth - Bullet To The Brain

No one knows what draws the moth to the flame

And nothing costs as much as playing the game

She had to know, know, know... he'd give love for sex

He had to know, know, know... she'd give sex for love

The taste, touching his tongue, sweet to his lips

Poison, now penetrating deeper

Betrayed by just one bite, for just one night

To find forbidden fruit tastes sweeter

Just like pressing a loaded gun to your head

One knows only the spider can navigate its web

She had to know, know, know... he'd get what he wants

He had to know, know, know... she'd get what she needs

Soon under the spell, emotions are high

Mind control penetrating deeper

The hex was cast on him, all he believes

Now is forbidden fruit tastes sweeter

She had to know, know, know... he'd win at the start

He had to know, know, know... she'd win in the end

His one last thought blew his mind, bullet to the brain

Hot lead was penetrating deeper

Just one reckless shot squeezed from the hand

That knows forbidden fruit tastes sweeter

Megadeth - Reckoning Day

I like the way that I make you itch

And all the reasons I give you to bitch

And how I make you want to scream in pain

And feel your life is just a losing game

I like the way that you let me in

The way you look when the walls cave in

I like the way that your stomach knots

And how you cry for it all to stop

I like the way that you fool yourself

And make believe there's nobody else

I like the way that you stand in line

And beg salvation from the empty skies

Don't want no revenge

Ain't no payback time

It ain't called getting even

Here comes the reckoning day

I like the things that you try to fake

And your face when I see you break

And that you say you will pray for me

You realize you are prey for me

I like the way you stay on attack

No matter what, I keep coming back

And how you try to hold me down

But you end up driven to the ground

Don't want no revenge

Ain't no payback time

It ain't called getting even

Here comes the reckoning

Don't want no revenge, don't want no revenge

Ain't no payback time, ain't no payback time

It ain't called getting even, it ain't called getting even

Here comes the reckoning, here comes the reckoning day

Here it comes, it's coming to get you

Here it comes, it's coming to get you

Megadeth - Bad Omen

Down fell the stars, as they

Splashed into the sea

"Mi nomine Baphomet"

Come dance with me

Sacrifice the virgins

Spiritual rites

Their master's time has come

The moon is full tonight

Drinking, dancing,

They worship and toast

The Devil, who's watching

With demon's remote

Fire, rising,

Racing in your blood

Possessed, naive,

His service is done

Bloody Sabbath, bad omen of the Goat

Bloody blasphemy

Sinister's the word

As the demon's take their fill

An orgy's taking place,

Human blood will spill

An act of worship

As they conceive the ghouls

Satan has their souls,

They sing pagan tunes

The ceremony

Is sure to be cursed

They wait for his blessing,

But down comes the worst

Their bodies soulless,

A corpse from the grave

Their minds are helpless,

And no one can save

No one can save, one can know!
