You're Dead Lyrics
When someone becomes nothing to anyone
Whilst feelings have died
Anyone would know it
They set out stick and stones
They say they'd crush 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
[Chorus]
One day I'll dance on your grave
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 of your riches in the back of a hearse
Your time is going to come
[Chorus]
One day I'll dance on your grave
Even if you're buried at sea
Till then, till when I exact my revenge
[Chorus]
Whilst feelings have died
Anyone would know it
They set out stick and stones
They say they'd crush my bones
I say, I don't get mad, I get even
Before they do
I'm dead on time
Your time is going to come
One day I'll dance on your grave
Even if you're buried at sea
Till then, till when I exact my revenge
I'll tell them, "you're dead to me"
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
Your time is going to come
Even if you're buried at sea
Till then, till when I exact my revenge

WTF? Why am I the first person to comment on this song...... maybe its a song about revenge... and how the person is determined to get it.
Not my favorite song, but it's pretty good. None of Megadeth's songs are bad =D
Probably about a person wanting to kill another person.
'One day I'll dance on your graves, Even if you're buried at sea' I love that line...
most unrated megadeth song

I like this song. It seems like a revenge song, but the second verse seems forgiving...
The riffs in the chorus are INCREDIBLE! Another great FCK YOU hate song ♡
"I say I don't get mad I get even"
Looks like Dave Mustaine listens to Aerosmith
