Scorpion Q+A 132

Question

Hello! I was wondering if there was any meaning behind the phrase "4 in the morning" in Dave's lyrics. Take the lines:

"It's four in the morning" - Wake Up Dead

And

"It's four in the morning and I still see your face" - Almost Honest

Thanks! =

Answer

Hello!

The lyric "four in the morning" does in fact have meaning behind it. Four in the morning is supposed to be the time that the most demonic activity is taking place in the unseen world. It is also the supposed "Darkest Hour". As well, Dave Mustaine's insomnia strikes every night at 4 am! This is a fact.

Great question!
