| Megadeth – Chosen Ones Lyrics

This song is about the Crusades, which took place in Europe during the 13th Century. At that time, armies of Holy Templars were travelling the land and running off(or worse) everyone who was not of Christian faith. The fact that these warriors were guilty of doing the same things that they were against is the basis of this song. The knights were killing killers and pillaging pillagers. |

| Megadeth – 99 Ways To Die Lyrics
| 22 years ago
|
|
The song was originally written about suicide and feeling as if his life is getting worse day to day, with no positive things in sight. Rumor has it that the chorus was originally "they're not ready to see me yet", meaning that God and/or Satan didn't want him to die yet. Mustaine did attempt suicide around the time this song was made, and he did die for a few minutes before being brought back. The lyrics were obviously negative and dealt with subjects that Megadeth knew wouldn't be allowed on Mtv, so they made the video with anti-gun messages and scenes of children playing with guns. This was to make the video seem as if the song was "uplifting" in a way. |
