In My Darkest Hour lyrics

[Verse 1]
In my hour of need
Ha, no, you're not there
And though I reached out for you
Wouldn't lend a hand
Through the darkest hour
Your grace did not shine on me
Feels so cold
Very cold, no one cares for me

[Verse 2]
Did you ever think I'd get lonely?
Did you ever think that I needed love?
Did you ever think to stop thinking?
You're the only one that I'm thinking of
You'll never know how hard I tried
To find my space and satisfy you too

[Bridge]
Things will be better (Better, better)
When I'm dead and gone
Don't try to understand
Knowing you, I'm probably wrong

[Verse 3]
But, oh, how I lived my life for you
'Til you turned away
Now, as I die for you
My flesh still crawls as I breathe your name
All these years, I thought I was wrong
Now I know it was you
Raise your head
Raise your face, and your eyes, tell me who you think you are
[Bridge]
I walk, I walk alone
To the promised land
There's a better place for me
But it's far, far away
Everlasting life for me
In a perfect world
But I gotta die first
Please, God, send me on my way

[Guitar Solo: Dave Mustaine]

[Verse 4]
Time has a way of taking time
Loneliness is not only felt by fools
Alone, I call to ease the pain, yearning to be held by you, alone
So alone, I'm lost, consumed by the pain
The pain, the pain, the pain; won't you hold me again?
You just laughed, ha-ha, b*tch
Whole life is work built on the past, time has come
When all things shall pass, this good thing passed away
