megadeth - time/use the man (live) lyrics
part 1: time: the beginning
[verse 1]
father time, i’m running late
i’m winding down, i’m growing tired
seconds drift into the night
the clock just ticks ’til my time expires
you were once my friend
now i know i can’t tie your hands
[verse 2]
the days i saved i couldn’t spend
they fell like sand through the hourglass
no time to lose, no time to choose
[chorus]
time taking time, it’s taken mine
scenes of my life seem so unkind
time chasing time creeps up behind
i can’t run forever
and time waits for no onе
waits for no one
not even mе
part 2: use the man
[verse 3]
i heard somebody fixed today
there was no last goodbyes to say
his will to live ran out
i heard somebody turned to dust
looking back at what he left
a list of plans and photographs
songs that never will be sung
these are the things he won’t get done
the things he won’t get done…
[chorus]
i’ve seen the man use the needle
seen the needle use the man
i’ve seen them crawl from the cradle
to the gutter on their hands
they fight a war but it’s fatal
it’s so hard to understand
i’ve seen the man use the needle
seen the needle use the man
[verse 4]
just one shot to say goodbye
one last taste to mourn and cry
scores and shoots, the lights go dim
just one shot to do him in
he hangs his head and wonders why
why the monkey only lies, lies, lies…
but pay the pauper, he did choose
he hung his head inside the noose
he hung his head inside the noose, oh…
[chorus]
i’ve seen the man use the needle
seen the needle use the man
i’ve seen them crawl from the cradle
to the coffin on their hands
they fight a war but it’s fatal
it’s so hard to understand
i’ve seen the man use the needle
seen the needle use the man
cryptic writing on the wall
the beginning of the end
i’ve seen myself use the needle
seen the needle in my hand
[instrumental break]
[outro]
i’ve seen the man use the needle
seen the needle use the man
i’ve seen them crawl from the cradle
to the coffin on their hands
they fight a war but it’s fatal
it’s so hard to understand
i’ve seen myself use the needle
seen the needle in my hand
in my hand, in my hand
in my hand!
