| Megadeth is an American thrash metal band led by founder, frontman, guitarist, and songwriter Dave Mustaine. Formed in 1983 Los Angeles, California with bass player Dave Ellefson following Mustaine’s departure from Metallica, the band has since released twelve studio albums, six live albums, two EPs, thirty singles, thirty-two music videos, and three compilations. As a pioneer of the American thrash metal movement, Megadeth rose to international fame in the 1980s, but experienced numerous line-up changes, due partly to the band’s notorious substance abuse problems. After finding sobriety and securing a stable line-up, Megadeth went on to release a string of platinum and gold albums, including the platinum-selling landmark Ru... more... | |||||||

| Devil's Island lyrics |
|
|
The light that fills my lonely cell, Is blocked out by the key, That locks the door to this hell, The place they wanted me. Time's racing like the wind, Execution's near, Oh lord, I wait for death, And, yes, I have no fear. I recall that night, my every breath, And, step along the way. Closed my eyes, walking, As danger paved the way. The devil, and the darkness Let her evil wander free And, here on Devils Island, The final stop for me. [Chorus:] Devils Island, Devils Island. Oh, there is no escape, The sea is full of sharks. The tide takes you away, and Smashes you on the rocks. The sun is shining, But feel not today, It's warmth, it's dying, And fading away. [Chorus (repeat):] Devils Island, (here I stay) Devils Island. Oh, hear the call, From the grave beyond. Oh, so pernicious, Her soul it creates song. As there is no man, that is Here upon the earth, Able to terminate our Noisome will since birth. The priest that reads the sermons, Is walking next to me, To the stake, my last request, To have her burn with me. But, so it did, the heavens opened, Rain began to fall. The final judgement came, and Was spread before you all. Final judgement. Old, weak, and feeble, But the lesson taught to me, To stay away from evil, She doesn't care for me. She haunts me in my sleep, Though I tore that page away. And, here on Devils Island, I'll always have to stay. [Chorus (repeat):] Devils Island, Devils Island. (Devils Island, Devils Island.) Here I am. [Chorus (repeat 4 times):] Devils Island, Devils Island. Back to Peace sells... but who's buying? lyrics |
