MEGADETH lyrics - This Was My Life

(Dave Mustaine)



It was just another day

It was just another fight

It was words strung into sentences

It was doomed to not be right



There is something wrong with me

There is something wrong with you

There is nothing left of us

There is one thing I can do



[Chorus:]

Lying on your bed,

Examining my head

This is the part of me that hates

Paybacks are a bitch

I throw the switch

Somewhere an electric chair awaits

Hey! This was my life

Hey! This was my fate



This was the wrong thing to do

This was the wrong one to be doing

This was the road to destiny

This was the road to my ruin



Now there's motives for the suspect

Now there's nothing left to say

Now there's method to the madness

Now there's society to pay



[Chorus]



In our life there's if

In our beliefs there's lie

In our business there's sin

In our bodies there's die



[Solo - Dave]



This was my life

This was my fate
