About

“Tornado of Souls” of 1990’s Rust In Peace takes a dramatic turn thematically; while many of the album’s songs involve aliens, magic, war and other topics of the sort, this is, according to Mustaine, more about a broken relationship and eagerness to “get back in the game” as it were.

Tornado of Souls Lyrics

[Verse 1]
This morning I made the call
The one that ends it all
Hanging up, I wanted to cry
But dammit, this well's gone dry

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Not for the money
Not for the fame
Not for the power
Just no more games

[Chorus]
But now I'm safe in the eye of a tornado
I can't replace the lies that let a thousand days go
No more living trapped inside, in her way I'll surely die
In the eye of the tornado, blow me away

[Verse 2]
You'll grow to loathe my name
You'll hate me just the same
You won't need your breath
And soon you'll meet your death

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Not from the years
Not from the use
Not from the tears
Just self-abuse

[Chorus]
But now I'm safe in the eye of a tornado
I can't replace the lies that let a thousand days go
No more living trapped inside, in her way I'll surely die
In the eye of the tornado, blow me away

[Post-Chorus]
Who's to say what's for me to say?
Who's to say what's for me to be?
Who's to say what's for me to do?
'Cause a big nothing it'll be for me

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge 1]
The land of opportunity
The golden chance for me
My future looks so bright
Now I think I've seen the light

[Instrumental Break/Guitar Solo 02:52-04:10]

[Bridge 2]
Can't say what's on my mind
Can't do what I really feel
In this bed I made for me
Is where I sleep, I really feel

[Outro]
I warn you of the fate
Proven true too late
Your tongue twists perverse
Come drink now of this curse
And now I fill your brain
I spin you round again
My poison fills your head
As I tuck you into bed
You'll feel my fingertips
You won't forget my lips
You'll feel my cold breath
It's the kiss of death

—Dave Mustaine, 1993

I wrote that one about my fiancé of six years, who I broke up with last October. I’d just had it! The way I look at it, most redheads are either gorgeous or u...
