This song is about the thought that everything happens for a reason – that nothing is just random. Even when bad things happen, there’s a reason for it, something good coming out of the bad. The song says that when something bad happens to you, remember that it has happened for a reason, even if you...
[Verse 1]
Somewhere there's a reason why things go like they do
Somewhere there's a reason why some things just fall through
We don't always see them for what they really are
But I know there's a reason, just can't see it from this far
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe I don't like it, but I have no choice
I know that somewhere, someone hears my voice
Maybe I don't like it, but I have no choice
I know that somewhere, someone hears my voice
[Chorus]
I thought I knew it all (I thought I knew it all)
I thought I had it made (I thought I had it made)
How could it end this way? (How could it end this way?)
I thought I knew, I thought I knew
[Verse 2]
Somewhere there's a reason why things don't go my way
Somewhere there's a reason that I cannot explain
Just like the change of seasons, just may not be my turn
But I know there's a reason, the lesson's mine to learn
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe I don't like it, but I have no choice
I know that somewhere, someone hears my voice
Maybe I don't like it, but I have no choice
I know that somewhere, someone hears my voice
[Chorus]
I thought I knew it all (I thought I knew it all)
I thought I had it made (I thought I had it made)
How could it end this way? (How could it end this way?)
I thought I knew, I thought I knew
[Instrumental Break]
[Guitar Solo: Marty Friedman]
[Chorus]
I thought I knew it all (I thought I knew it all)
I thought I had it made (I thought I had it made)
How could it end this way? (How could it end this way?)
I thought I knew, I thought I knew
[Post-Chorus]
I thought I knew
[Outro]
Thought I, thought I, thought I, thought I
Thought I, thought I, thought I, thought I knew it all
[Guitar Solo: Dave Mustaine & Marty Friedman]

I Thought I Knew It All was produced by Max Norman & Dave Mustaine.

My fave tune on the album. This is also nectar of the gods at high volume. Nick [Menza] and I wrote the music for the chorus at his house in North Hollywood. He suggested that I listen to this Gipsy Kings song and we both kind of got inspired from that. This kind of tune is what I love about Megadet...
