DESCRIPTION:
(With Lyrics) The first song of Megadeth's thirteenth studio album "Th1rt3en" released on November 1st and by the way the first track featuring David Ellefson on the bass again after Megadeth disbanded in 2002. Actually this song was recorded back in 2010 for the video game "Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock", but after a Grammy nomination and loads of positive feedback the band decided to put the song on a regular studio album. With its aggressive lyrics, progressive riffs and loads of shredding it seems to continue the musical development of the band just like the previous album "Endgame" and is clearly one of their best songs since Cryptic Writings. m/

LYRICS:

SUDDEN DEATH

His wicked highness born from disaster
To dominate and to kill
[Solo - Mustaine]
A glistening murder machine
False majesty standing perfectly still
[Solo - Mustaine]
A blitzkrieg raining down evil
On a mountain of black ice
Like a good old fashioned beating within
Inches of your life

While alone and left abandoned
With the sentence you've been handed
All your angels will ignore you
As your life flashes before you
Even still you keep on fighting
Through the thunder and the lightning
And now heaven sends its love
[Solo - Broderick]
Your sudden death from above

Once frozen like a prisoner depraved
Perched high atop the lithosphere
[Solo - Broderick]
Set free from beneath the depths of hell
Bequeathing anything but despair
[Solo - Mustaine]
The beast is genetically programmed
Time to destroy, time to go berserk
To see the end of all wars
To see the end of the earth
[Solo - Mustaine]

Stopping at nothing, punch drunk
From the blood that he's tasted
Tearing your soul apart
Not one bit of your pain will be wasted
Now death descends upon you
Like a bloody white dove
Bringing your retribution
Your sudden death from above

[Solo - Broderick]
[Solo - Mustaine]
[Solo - Broderick]

While alone and left abandoned
With the sentence you've been handed
All your angels will ignore you
As your life flashes before you
Even still you keep on fighting
Through the thunder and the lightning
And now heaven sends its love
[Solo - Mustaine]
Your sudden death from above
