Elysian Fields Lyrics

Artist: Megadeth
Album: Youthanasia

Music by Mustaine
Lyrics by Mustaine, Ellefson

Uneasy feeling, burning out my eyes
I hope the end is less painful than my life
I stand on trial before the gods
On judgement day
A blink of an eye between
The cradle and the grave

One last look at visions of flesh
The last best hope of man on Earth
Pontius Pilate still washing his hands
The world don't want to be saved
Only left alone

Elysian Fields...
We are storming the heavens
We raise the swords and shields
We ascend to our destiny
To the Elysian Fields

Soaring to the sun
With blood upon their wings
Superstitious dust left twisting in the wind
Man still has one belief,
One decree that stands alone
The laying down of arms
Is like cancer to their bones

Well... As many times as I've heard this song I am a total dumbtard for not knowing what it was about. I still don't get it. But knowing dave, its probably about how screwed up the world is. With my luck I'm wrong but it doesn't matter bc I will never get it seeing from the way you people worded your comments!!!
