God Hates Us
by: Avenged Sevenfold

TOTAL NIGHTMARE!
TOTAL NIGHTMARE!

You wanna hear my side?
You need to drown to know.
When all the times it hurt me to fuck you,
I built a wall with your blood to show!

GOD SAVE US!
GOD SAVE US ALL!
GOD HATES US!
GOD HATES US ALL!

TOTAL NIGHTMARE!
TOTAL NIGHTMARE!

Nothing to heal.
No one to break.
You'll stand in row now
Theres nothing to take.
Nothing to trust.
No one to fake.
You'll find out soon
No doubt its best if we just blow up.
(LIES!)

My infiltrated mind.
My lacerated soul.
You took me years
Create me control you.
Why let myself around with you aside?

GOD SAVE US!
GOD SAVE US ALL!
GOD HATES US!
GOD HATES US ALL!

TOTAL NIGHTMARE!

You better take your time

You better take it slow
Cause when you see the one
(LOVE HATE FEAR)
Theres nothing left to show.

TOTAL NIGHTMARE!
TOTAL NIGHTMARE!
TOTAL NIGHTMARE!
TOTAL NIGHTMARE!

Avenged Sevenfold - Girl I Know lyrics

Girl I Know 
by: Avenged Sevenfold

Let me tell ya 'bout this girl I know
That comes alive when you take off her clothes
Theres no tell just where shes been
Ask around but no one seems to know

Late at night when your looking to sin
Call her up and she'll lay down the law
You can't trust her 'cause she'll lie to your face
But thats not why you gave her a call

Awaits deep inside
The lust and burning desire

We've all been more than eager to sin
And it feels alright, 'till we pay the price
Now you choose either naughty or nice
'Cause shes here for you
Its all yours tonight
You won't believe the stories I've been told
About the girl I know

Another thing about this girl I know
Shes more comfortable down on her knees
Went to school, got a job, and then she shot into hell
All 'cause shes born to please

Don't get her mixed up 'cause she knows what she likes
Can't tell the difference between right and wrong
She knows you're watching every one of her moves
Just more reason to string you along, yeah

Awaits deep inside
The lust and burning desire

We've all been more than eager to sin
And it feels alright, 'till we pay the price
Now you choose either naughty or nice
'Cause shes here for you
Its all yours tonight
You won't believe the stories I've been told
About the girl I know

The first times hard enough
But you made it through
The seconds time I see the changes in you
Shes got you somehow
You're needing her now

We've all been more than eager to sin
And it feels alright, 'till we pay the price
Now you choose either naughty or nice
'Cause shes here for you
Its all yours tonight
You won't believe the stories I've been told
About the girl I know

Avenged Sevenfold - Epic Of Time Wasted lyrics

Epic Of Time Wasted
by: Avenged Sevenfold

So much time I've wasted.
I can truly say I never thought it would come to this.
Never would I doubt you, but the truth kept smacking me in the face.
Reality. You never stopped to think and you ripped us apart.
How could you? Now our time is gone but it's still breaking my heart.
Tears run down as I think of the days we've had, and the memories will last forever,
but you and I have died and gone our separate ways.
You are the one.
You are the wrong one.
Breaking the mold.
Going your own way.
All I feel, betrayal.
So much time I've wasted, and I never thought it'd come to this.
Apology.
We had something great, then it was washed away.
We had something more, then I can explain.
I'm sorry. No! We had something great, then it was washed away.
No! Not all friendships last, the genuine are harder to take.
No! Time to start again, hope someday you'll think of me.
No! The end reality, I know someday I'll think of you

Avenged Sevenfold - Forgotten Faces lyrics

Forgotten Faces 
by: Avenged Sevenfold

Forgotten faces.

Lost in yesterdays realm.

Drained with confusion.

Where did it all go?

Look into the past, look into their faces.

Never, the thought of being time fucked.

But now they're all gone and all that's left is this blank faced picture.

Ninety percent, nothing was done, nothing accomplished,

coasting through life didn't seize the day.

No one ever realized that they're already dgad.

By the time you realize, you'll be dead too.

Without another chance to save the world, these things they're gone, your gone, forgotten.

Now your face in my picture frame. It's gone, forever.

Right before my very eyes.

And just when I thought I made light of things.

It slips away, into darkness.

My life passes now I see.

Just what this world does hold for me.

It's getting hard, harder to breathe.

Am I out of time is that what this means?

Well that's what it means.

That's what it means, you and me try to breathe.

Now you. Realize.

Your life, flies by.

Now I. Realize.

My life, I die

Avenged Sevenfold - Flash Of The Blade lyrics

Flash Of The Blade
by: Avenged Sevenfold

As a young boy chasing dragons with your wooden sword so mighty,
You're St. George or you're David and you always killed the beast.
Times change very quickly,
and you had to grow up early,
A house in smoking ruins and the bodies at your feet.

CHORUS

You'll die as you lived
In a flash of the blade,
In a corner, forgotten by no one.
You lived for the touch
For the feel of the steel
One man, and his honor.

The smell of resined leather
The steely iron mask
As you cut and thrust and parried at the fencing master's call.
He taught you all he ever knew
To fear no mortal man
and now you'll wreak your vengeance in the
Screams of evil men.

CHORUS

Avenged Sevenfold - Fiction lyrics

Fiction
by: Avenged Sevenfold

Now I think I understand
How this world can overcome a man
Like a friend we saw it through
In the end I gave my life for you

Gave you all I had to give
Found a place for me to rest my head
While I may be hard to find
Heard there's peace just on the other side

Not that I could
Or that I would
Let it burn
Under my skin
Let it burn

Left this life to set me free
Took a piece of you inside of me
All this hurt can finally fade
Promise me you'll never feel afraid

Not that I could
Or that I would
Let it burn
Under my skin
Let it burn

I hope it’s worth it, here on the highway, yeah
I know you'll find your own way when I’m not with you

So tell everybody, the ones who walk beside me, yeah
I hope you'll find your own way when I’m not with you tonight

I hope it’s worth it, what’s left behind me, yeah
I know you'll find your own way when I’m not with you

So tell everybody, the ones who walk beside me, yeah
I know you'll find your own way when I’m not with you tonight

Avenged Sevenfold - Eternal Rest lyrics

Eternal Rest
by: Avenged Sevenfold

Black enchanting eyes,

cut through my heart

with no regret or sign of life

They tear apart my pride

and cold runs through my veins

I feel their stare from miles

haunting every step

and they won't stop hunting me down

I know the time will come,

when all around me's burned

and you'll still see me there

Asking where you went too

and what person brought you here

And why you left the burning children

cold out in the night

and calling for you all alone...


Dark in their hearts,

I can feel it burn inside of me

Tormented young with no souls, haunting me

Pain in their lives all they know is misery

Take these chains away that are holding me down


They'll find you alone

and your desperate and villainous ways

Turning their hearts into stone

they seek more then vengeance

Look in their eyes your pain is their satisfaction

Look in their eyes and see the darkness take hold

Burn for the rest of time


Hear the haunting words

lost children with no heart are crying

and your the lost mother their calling

I hear them crying at night

outside when the planets are falling

They want to feel and know you hear them


Go now / Run and hide

Eternal Rest / In time

Avenged Sevenfold - Desecrate Through Reverance lyrics

Desecrate Through Reverance
by: Avenged Sevenfold

Hard news, taken harder, don't look to me

Disappointed, we don't agree, I don't need your praise...

(don't look my way for help,

from the beginning you came to me)

Never asked you to like me,

I don't want your praise (we won't play your games)

Look down on me, spit in my face,

you're nothing to me:not to me


Darkened eyes you'll see,

there is no hope, no savior in me

(don't look this way, don't breathe this way,

don't stare this way, anymore)

Learned from years gone by, no one will care,

what happens to me

(don't look this way, don't breathe this way,

don't stare this way, anymore)


My presence won't be ignored, no not today

Don't walk in my direction, turn the other way

(don't look my way for help,

from the beginning you came to me)

Asking questions, predetermined answers,

you won't find them here (we don't want your opinion)

And I don't want you, I won't let you think,

compromise is near. 'Cause it's not near.


I'm alone in here

No more feelings

Killed my fears

Don't ask

you'll never know

you're left behind and I'll be exposed


Far away, you keep on trying...

Holding me down, breaking away,

trying to distance my life.

Not one in the crowd, but one with the answer

the one that could change your mind


But it's not true, I don't know you

Don't waste your time, and don't waste mine

I'm not your friend, I won't soothe your soul

And in the end you're all dead to me....

Avenged Sevenfold - Clairvoyant Desease lyrics

Clairvoyant Desease
by: Avenged Sevenfold

Dust begins to fall, to the ground

The air is cold and thin

Thoughts are haunting me as I look around

This will never end and I'll bleed forever


Don't acknowledge right, just dwell on wrong

This spot in hell's where I belong

I've come so far - it's been so long

Don't know why it started or where it came from


Outside shell is strong - confident

But slowly eats away

Like a man plagued with disease, I try to fight

Through my pores it seems to seep...

I'll bleed forever


And you sit there and do nothing

You're content with doing nothing


There's nowhere to run and hide

when you're living to die

Stuck alone inside your head,

better off dead

The phone would ring in the empty house,

no one's around.


But in my life, I wanted more, I needed more

I taste more

Avenged Sevenfold - Demons lyrics

Demons
by: Avenged Sevenfold

I've been thinking lots about my life and
How quick I'd wash it down the drain
Past tense the future, nothing matters now
I act on my own and I'm to blame
Living's a wicked dream, where things turn out all wrong
We're all so weak, no matter how strong, yeah

I tried running away from me
Convince me that I've grown, but I can't
Change so unnaturally, Demons they follow me
I quit running away from me
Convinced that I have grown, but found out
All my reasons for insanity, all a part of me

I don't like that you're calling me a liar
I don't like that you found out I'm a snake
Been sneaking around for far too long now
I don't like how fast my intentions fade
Karma has beat me down, the worst is yet to come
Many mistakes and still I'm so young, yeah

I tried running away from me
Convince me that I've grown, but I can't
Change so unnaturally, Demons they follow me
I quit running away from me
Convinced that I have grown, but found out
All my reasons for insanity, all a part of me

I can't
Count how many times
Awakened in fear, nightly
Palms sweating
Dreams
Of promises I've made
To no one but myself
Have been
Crushed daily

Don't lend me your hand
I can't trust myself
So how can you trust me

We've all made selfish bad decisions
We've all tried dishing out the blame
Convinced ourselves of our own actions
My problem is I'll never change
Been dealt some good cards that
I'll fold before it's time
Can't promise you that it's my last time, yeah

I tried running away from me
Convince me that I've grown, but I can't
Change so unnaturally, Demons they follow me
I quit running away from me
Convinced that I have grown, but found out
All my reasons for insanity, all a part of me

Friends won't help you now
Hope lost gone too far
(oh oh oh oh)

Friends won't help you now
Hope lost gone too far
(oh oh oh oh)

I'm scarred, yeah
Demons they follow me, 'cause my insanity
I'm scarred, yeah
Demons they follow me, 'cause my insanity
I'm scarred, yeah
Demons they follow me, 'cause my insanity
I'm scarred, yeah
Demons they follow me, 'cause my insanity

Demons they follow me, 'cause my insanity

Demons they follow me, 'cause my insanity 

Avenged Sevenfold - Dear God lyrics

Dear God 
by: Avenged Sevenfold

A lonely road, crossed another cold state line
Miles away from those I love purpose hard to find
While I recall all the words you spoke to me
Can't help but wish that I was there
Back where I'd love to be, oh yeah

Dear God the only thing yo yeah
I ask of you is
to hold her when I'm not around
when I'm much too far away
We all need that person who can be true to you
But I left her when I found her
And now I wish I'd stayed
'Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired
I'm missing you again oh no
Once again

There's nothing here for me on this barren road
There's no one here while the city sleeps
and all the shops are closed
Can't help but think of the times I've had with you
Pictures and some memories will have to help me through, oh yeah

Dear God the only thing I ask of you is
to hold her when I'm not around
when I'm much too far away
We all need that person who can be true to you
I left her when I found her
And now I wish I'd stayed
'Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired
I'm missing you again oh no
Once again

Some search, never finding a way
Before long, they waste away
I found you, something told me to stay
I gave in, to selfish ways
And how I miss someone to hold
when hope begins to fade...

A lonely road, crossed another cold state line
Miles away from those I love purpose hard to find

Dear God the only thing I ask of you is
to hold her when I'm not around
when I'm much too far away
We all need that person who can be true to you
I left her when I found her
And now I wish I'd stayed
'Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired
I'm missing you again oh no
Once again

Avenged Sevenfold - Darkness Sourrounding lyrics

Darkness Sourrounding
by: Avenged Sevenfold

Darkness coats us.

The smell of fall.

Changing season.

The graveyard is alive, black cat across my path,

the chill of cold wind, the breath of the dead.

Imprisoned souls.

Trapped for eternity.

Black crows break the silence.

The garden of the dead s alive tonight and you can't stop it.

Just enjoy it.

Open up your mind and you will feel it too.

The sound, the touch, the thoughts, that you've been so blind to.

You can feel the thoughts of the dead.

Feeling the thoughts of the dead.

True or false, it's still there, teaching me.

True or false, still there, teaching me.

You can feel it tonight.

The wood has rotted away.

Take the time absorb it.

Their time is slipping away.

Stone all carved by hand.

Statues that resemble their faces.

They still breathe.

Come join us.

Smell the burning ember's, night flickering away.

Timeless but soon gone.

Timeless but soon gone.

I can find myself, alone with just my thoughts.

As time crumbles away.

As I crumble away

Avenged Sevenfold - Danger Line lyrics

Danger Line
by: Avenged Sevenfold


My sixteen, locked and loaded
All fear has been avoided
You say the words and my weapon is drawn

This one could be my last time
Some people call it war crime
I may be staring down a lethal sight

(To die)
Nothing shocks you like a bullet hole
Leaving my fear on the danger line
Suffering a man should never know
Leaving my faith on the danger line

I do this for my family
My daughter loves her daddy
Too many talk down on things they don't know

With colors never faded
Reckless and unabated
They may take me but never take us all

(I'll crawl)
Nothing shocks you like a bullet hole
Leaving my fear on the danger line
Suffering a man should never know
Leaving my faith on the danger line

I know what you're thinking
I've been there before
So think of the times, the time we spent laughing away
So think of the times at home
(Life without a care)

Now I find myself in my own blood
(Never thought I'd lay in my own blood)
The damage done is far beyond repair
I never put my faith in up above
(Never had much faith in up above)
But now, I'm hoping someone's there

I never meant to leave this world alone
I never meant to hurt the ones who cared
And all this time I thought we'd just grow old
You know, no one said it's fair

Tell my baby girl that "It's alright"
I've sung my last song today
Remind the lord to leave his light on for me
I'm free

Avenged Sevenfold - Dancing Dead lyrics

Dancing Dead
by: Avenged Sevenfold

Dead men,
They celebrate
As the final chapter
Fades away
Cause they can't hide;
We can see their flesh is rotten!

The band plays a hopeful tune
The champagne is poured
As they socialize
The look in their eyes
Hidin' the light!

Everything is paid for tonight
While at the party of the
Dead dancin' in their graves
The drinks here are free
So relax
Enjoy the sight of all the
Dead dancin' in their graves
And while the world that they built
Told 'em to change
Told 'em to listen
They just kept it the same
And now that midnight has come
I'm in a room watchin' the
Dead dancin' in their graves

Bones covered up by suits
As the visible scars,
They multiply
Kiss it good-bye
Too stubborn and now you're destroyed!

Tick, tock
The time bomb has been
Recognized and pressurized
Nowhere to hide
Swallowin' light!

Everything is paid for tonight
While at the party of the
Dead dancin' in their graves
The drinks here are free
So relax
Enjoy the sight of all the
Dead dancin' in their graves
And while the world that they built
Told 'em to change
Told 'em to listen
They just kept it the same
And now that midnight has come
I'm in a room watchin' the
Dead dancin' in their graves

We feel a coming strength
And now it's too late
To change.

{background chatter}

Why'd you want to go?
You drown me with all that you are
Oh, how the mighty fall
Yeah

Everything is paid for tonight
While at the party of the
Dead dancin' in their graves
The drinks here are free
So relax
Enjoy the sight of all the
Dead dancin' in their graves
And while the world that they built
Told 'em to change
Told 'em to listen
They just kept it the same
And now that midnight has come
I'm in a room watchin' the
Dead dancin' in their graves

(4x+fade)
We feel a coming strength
And
now it's too late
To change.

Avenged Sevenfold - Crossroads lyrics

Crossroads
by: Avenged Sevenfold

I've been traveling for so long
So lost till I stumbled upon
Two roads in front of me
I had to take my time

To the right I could see a church
I took a step in that direction first
But to the left there was a watering hole
Where they were whiskey drunk
Now that's where I wanna be
I fly to the edges of it all

If I was perfect
Then this would be easy
Either roads plausible
On both I could drown
I walk through center
With no rules to guide me
I realize it's difficult
But now I can see

There's gotta be another way to go
A way that's much more feasible
A combination of all these lies,
A central path without choosing a side

I make decisions one at a time
And no I never say I'm always right
I'm confident that when I stand on my own
You'll see the truest form of a man
when I'm shining through
I fly to the edges of it all

If I was perfect
Then this would be easy
Either roads plausible
On both I could drown
I walk through center
With no rules to guide me
I realize it's difficult
But now I can see

Oh, I hear them now
All the religious rhymes
(Anger I see)
(Anger I see)
(Anger I see now)

The left isn't better
It's just more of the same
Condemning all these people
For what they believe

I climb to the top
of their mountain again
No one is gonna see me this way
And the closer to the top I get
The more they can gain
But I'm not you

I may not be perfect
But I've always been true
I may not be worthy
In your eyes
Climbed up from the bottom
For the last time
The last one the last one
The last time

If I was perfect
Then this would be easy
Either roads plausible
On both I could drown
I walk through center
With no rules to guide me
I realize it's difficult
But now I can see

Avenged Sevenfold - Critical Acclaim lyrics

Critical Acclaim
by: Avenged Sevenfold

Shhh… quiet you might piss somebody off
Like me motherfucker you've been at it for too long
While you feed off others' insecurities
You stand in front of me and bite the hand that feeds

Self-righteousness is wearing thin
(Lies inside your head, your best friend)
I'll bleed but not for fellow men
(Broken glass, your fake reflection)

Telling them it's all for something real
Don't respect the words you're speaking
Gone too far
Acclaim

So how does it feel to know that someone's kid
in the heart of America has blood on their hands
fighting to defend your rights
so you can maintain a lifestyle
that insults his family's existence
Well, where I come from we have a special
salute waved high in the air
to all those pompous assholes
who spend their days pointing fingers
(Fuck You)

Shhh… quiet you might piss somebody off
Like the heartbeat of this country when antagonized too long
I'll be damned if you count me in as part of your generous hypocrisy
collected and amazed

Tabloid gossip we want less real
(There's no need for us to bury you)
Selfish agenda once again
(Right this way you've dug your own grave)

Telling them it's all for something real
Don't respect the words you're speaking
Gone too far
Acclaim

All the way from the east to the west we've
got this high society
looking down on their very foundation
constantly reminding us that our actions
are the cause of all their problems
Pointing their fingers in every
direction and blaming their
own nation for who wins elections
They've never contributed a fucking thing to the
country they love to criticize

Excuse the obscene, ignore the untrue
Depictions we see try and get through
Admitting mistakes can hurt
I'm not the last but I sure ain't the first

Shhh… quiet you might piss somebody off

Self-righteousness is wearing thin
(Lies inside your head your best friend)
Heart bleeds but not for fellow men
(Broken glass your fake reflection)

Telling them it's all for something real
Don't respect the words you're speaking
Gone too far
Acclaim

Avenged Sevenfold - Chapter Four lyrics

Chapter Four
by: Avenged Sevenfold

(give me your hand,

conceived and born was one of light

blood is spilt and man will follow

infernal man,

rain and dark, the other born black night

punishment too great to bear)


Raise your head and taste the courage

(the one of light)

Fall from grace, unholy night

I've come here to kill you,

won't leave until you've died

Murder born of vengeance,

I closed my brothers eyes tonight...


Its cold tonight as the clouds turn grey

and from my hands to my brothers grave

You took his side, you took his gift,

feel the power of a fallen man, crestfallen man...


Far away in this land I must go,

out of the site of the One.

A punishment sent from his hand

a hardship no one should know

Now go out of the site of the One,

away in this land you must go.


Where has he gone? What have you done?

A voice commands from high above this earth.

From the soil I hear his blood cry out to me

Avenged Sevenfold - Burn It Down lyrics

Burn It Down

by: Avenged Sevenfold

Jealousy's an ugly word, but you don't seem to care
Converse behind my back, but now I'm here
Need no one to comply with me though everyone that I defeat
Don't need you, fuck camaraderie, this rage will never go away

Hatred fuels my blood, I'll burn you down (you can't help me)
One king to watch the horsemen fall, I'll fight 'til the end (I won't help you)
I can't trust anyone, see it in my eyes
Now I can understand, it's sorrow that feeds your lies

You're on my back when the water gets too deep for you to breath
A crutch for you that won't always be there
Hide in the dark another day, the fear in you is here to stay
So keep the fuck away from me and learn to trust the words I say

Hatred fuels my blood, I'll burn you down (you can't help me)
One king to watch the horsemen fall, I'll fight 'til the end (I won't help you)
I can't trust anyone, witness and see it in my eyes
Now I can understand, put faith in you for the last time
It's sorrow that feeds your lies

Run from me before I tear you down (be afraid)
You chose the wrong side (it feels so right)
I won't help you, let you rot away (despite what you say
Run towards the light exposing your soul (we won't be there by your side)
Salvation's dying (somebody's crying)
We're all gone in the end, sweet child we'll miss you
No, so far away

Falling away, can't turn back time
Burn it down anyway

Avenged Sevenfold - Burried Alive lyrics

Burried Alive

by: Avenged Sevenfold

Take the time just to listen
When the voices screaming are much too loud
Take a look in the distance
Try and see it all

Chances are that you might find
That we share a common discomfort now
I feel I'm walking a fine line
Tell me only if it's real

Still I'm on my way
(On and on it goes)
Vacant hope to take

Hey!
I can't live in here for another day
Darkness has kept the light concealed
Grim as ever
Hold on to faith as I dig another grave
Meanwhile the mice endure the wheel
Real as ever
And it seems I've been buried alive

I walk the fields through the fire
Taking steps until I found solid ground
Followed dreams, reaching higher
Couldn't survive the fall

Much has changed since the last time
And I feel a little less certain now
You know I jumped at the first sign
Tell me only if it's real

Memories seem to fade
(On and on it goes)
Wash my view away

Hey!
I can't live in here for another day
Darkness has kept the light concealed
Grim as ever
Hold on to faith as I dig another grave
Meanwhile the mice endure the wheel
Real as ever
And I'm chained like a slave
Trapped in the dark
Slammed all the locks
Death calls my name
And it seems I've been buried alive

Take you down now
Burn it all out
Throw you all around
Get your fuckin' HANDS OFF ME!

What's it feel like?
Took the wrong route
Watch it fall apart
Now you're knockin' AT THE WRONG GATE!

For you to pay the toll
A price for you alone
The only deal you'll find
I'll gladly take your soul

While it seems sick
Sober up quick
Psycho lunatic crushing you with
HANDS OF FATE!

Shame to find out
When it's too late
But you're all the same
Trapped inside INFERNO AWAITS!

Evil thoughts can hide
I'll help release the mind
I'll peel away the skin
Release the dark within

This is now your life
Strike you from the light
This is now your life
Die, buried alive [x3]

Avenged Sevenfold - Beast And The Harlot lyrics

Beast And The Harlot
by: Avenged Sevenfold

This shining city built of gold, a far cry from innocence,
There's more than meets the eye round here, look to the waters of the deep.
A city of evil.
There sat a seven-headed beast, ten horns raised from his head.
Symbolic woman sits on his throne, but hatred strips her and leaves her naked.
The Beast and the Harlot.

She's a dwelling place for demons.
She's a cage for every unclean spirit, every filthy bird
and makes us drink the poisoned wine to fornicating with our kings.
Fallen now is Babylon the Great.

The city dressed in jewels and gold, fine linen, myrrh with pearls.
Her plagues have come all at once as her mourners watch her burn.
Destroyed in an hour.
Merchants and captains of the world, sailors, navigators too.
Will weep and mourn this loss with her sins piled to the sky,
The Beast and the Harlot.

She's a dwelling place for demons.
She's a cage for every unclean spirit, every filthy bird
and makes us drink the poisoned wine to fornicating with our kings.
Fallen now is Babylon the Great.

The day has come for all us sinners.
If you're not a servant, you'll be struck to the ground.
Flee the burning, greedy city.
Lookin' back on her to see there's nothing around.

I don't believe in fairytales and no one wants to go to hell.
You've made the wrong decision and it's easy to see.
Now if you wanna serve above or be a king below with us,
You're welcome to the city where your future is set forever.

She's a dwelling place for demons.
She's a cage for every unclean spirit, every filthy bird
and makes us drink the poisoned wine to fornicating with our kings.
Fallen now is Babylon the Great.

She's a dwelling place for demons.
She's a cage for every unclean spirit, eery filthy bird
and makes us drink the poisoned wine to fornicating with our kings.
Fallen now is Babylon the Great.

Avenged Sevenfold - Brompton Cocktail lyrics

Brompton Cocktail

by: Avenged Sevenfold

(Out of time...)
Doc, I'm dying, I'm feeling compromised (feeling compromised)
and so dehumanized (and so dehumanized)
I lost my final fight to disease, I feel that this is where it ends
I need that shot to enter my vein
My Brompton Cocktail blend

'Cause I can't feel my face
I won't struggle on
In a world so cold
In a world so wrong

I'm not running away, been fighting this so long (so long)
Such a price that we pay, we gotta be so strong
in a lie...

I'm tired, induced euphoria (induced euphoria)
to help me move along (help me move along)
I wanna meet my maker in peace, I want to feel alive again
So put that smile back on my face and mix it strong my friend

'Cause I can't feel my face
I won't struggle on
In a world so cold
In a world so wrong

I'm not running away, been fighting this so long (so long)
Such a price that we pay, we gotta be so strong
And I take my life tonight 'cause I have the right to die how I wanna
and leave how I arrived, so alive

I believe my sins they'll be forgiven
and I believe my choice will save me from this life
please don't question why
my sins they'll be forgotten
I believe I'll find peace in afterlife
please don't question why
I left this way

'Cause I can't feel my face
I won't struggle on
In a world so cold
In a world so wrong

I'm not running away, been fighting this so long (so long)
Such a price that we pay, we gotta be so strong
And I take my life tonight 'cause I have the right to die how I wanna
and leave how I arrived, so alive
(Alive)

Avenged Sevenfold - Betrayed lyrics

Betrayed
by: Avenged Sevenfold

Passion in my eyes, I lived it everyday, but how could you go throw it all away?
In my dreams it's me and you, it's there I saw it all come true
As time went by faith in you grew, so one thing's left for me to do (finish you)

I feel it burn inside, burn in me like the rising sun
Lifted into the sky, took the only thing I loved
I know after tonight all your power crumbles in my arms
So don't worry, I'll be fine, when my life ends, I'll leave this scar

A smoking gun in your hand, now don't you realize what you've done
Put a bullet in his back, your hero since you were so young
How could you kill the man who brought salvation through your pain
He must mean everything to end it all this shameful way

I started here so young and helped you get along
Just did it for the love, and people healed through us
Don't live you life in vain, don't take it out on me
You're cracked, so just remember, I'm not your enemy
I don't deserve to fall this way, by a man who felt betrayed

I felt so down now you're around to rescue me
Every note and every word i'm listening
Sometimes problems seem too deep to take
Sometimes I cry thinking my future looks so bleak
Finally, together we were destined, I know what's best for us in the end
Someone hear me, someone stop me, someone listen, why aren't you listening?

Avenged Sevenfold - Blibded In Chains lyrics

Blinded In Chains
by: Avenged Sevenfold

And we're at it again, I turn around another fucking war, man
I don't know where to begin, but I'll start with the radical leaders
Their steps we're followin'

Running, don't go back and fight, too many you'll lose
(And as clowns you follow suit behind the blood between the red and white and blue but it's too deep for you to see and
everyone eventually will take the step cause it's in sight you take the left I'll take the right I fell the hate you've built
for me and I say pay attention baby)

As they thank the Lord the blind can't see
Like a plague fed to the brain, deadly disease

But it wasn't a sin, a sorry life in judging every action
And as they're feeding your mind with this shit you forgot
How to speak how to ask all the questions

The business at hand tonight, make the people choose
(I see another side in you but there's not much more I can do from on the outside looking in your government is listenin' to
push you on the story of immortal father mortal son give them your mind and all your wealth the cycle will rebirth itself)
If they had it their way I'd burn in Hell and your future's a fuckin' disaster can't you see
Don't give them all the power when your future's in desperate trouble baby

As they thank the Lord the blind can't see
Like a plague fed to the brain, deadly disease
I'd run away tonight with my mind still intact you gotta make it alright
Easier said than done with no place to hide and having no place to (run)
Running away from condition, I see you but you're running away from
Your scared seductive system

Most would claim I live a lie when pointing out it's easy to predict these things
Every color has its side, they live together vote and most won't read between these lines
Please help us, please save us of coarse they have control we're all the same
Up on the cross, crucified their problem drove the nail and let Him rot
Family and friends, it won't matter in the end I'm sure they'll understand Now look at the world and see how the humans bleed
As I sit up here and wonder "bout how you sold your mind, body and soul
Looking at the fields so green I know this sounds obscene
I see you're living for tomorrow but decisions you have made will leave you empty

You've fallen asleep in denial
Look at the way we're dyin'
How it ends I'll never know
Just live your life blind like me

Avenged Sevenfold - Bat country lyrics

Bat Country
by: Avenged Sevenfold

He who makes a beast out of himself, gets rid of the pain of being a man

Caught here in a fiery blaze, won't lose my will to stay.
I trie-ie-ied to drive all through the night,
the heat stroke ridden weather, the barren empty sights.
No oasis here to see, the sand is singing deathless words to me.

[Chorus:]
Can't you help me as I'm startin' to burn (all alone).
Too many doses and I'm starting to get an attraction.
My confidence is leaving me on my own (all alone).
No one can save me and you know I don't want the attention.

As Ie-ie-ie adjust to my new sights the rarely tired lights will take me to new heights.
My hand is on the trigger I'm ready to ignite.
Tomorrow might not make it but everything's all right.
Mental fiction follows me; show me what it's like to be set free.

[Chorus]

So sorry you're not here I've been sane too long my vision's so unclear.
Now take a trip with me but don't be surprised when things aren't what they seem.

Caught here in a fiery blaze, won't lose my will to stay.
These eyes won't see the same, after I flip today.

Sometimes I don't know why we'd rather live than die,
we look up towards the sky for answers to our lives.
We may get some solutions but most just pass us by,
don't want your absolution cause I can't make it right.
I'll make a beast out of myself, gets rid of all the pain of being a man.

[Chorus]

Avenged Sevenfold - And All Things Will End lyrics

And All Things Will End
by: Avenged Sevenfold

Lived through you,

safe with how we lived our lives,

with how it all turned out.

(But things are bound to change)

Uncovered lies, surfaced throughout,

will make you change your mind


Sometimes life is altered

Won't turn out right. Can't turn out right


When I see you, I can read it in your eyes,

fate misunderstood.

(But things are bound to change)

Swallowed the lies, can't blame you for,

thinking with your heart.


Sometimes life is altered.

Break from the ropes your hands are tied.

Uneasy with confrontation.

Won't turn out right. Can't turn out right


I see my world crumble and fall, before my eyes

I know, I know.

Dark will turn to light, in time I'll be alright

I know, I know

(I never imagined my life could turn out this way

So cold so black so alone)


Living goes by fast, catch your breath

and it will pass you by.

And it won't last, to sulk with the memories you hold.


Sometimes life is altered.

Break from the ropes your hands are tied.

Uneasy with confrontation.

Won't turn out right. Can't turn out right

Avenged Sevenfold - Almost Easy lyrics

Almost Easy
by: Avenged Sevenfold

I feel insane every single time
I'm asked to compromise
Cause I'm afraid and stuck in my ways
And that's the way it stays
So how long did I expect love to outweigh ignorance?
By that look on your face I may have forced the scale to tip

I'm not insane, I'm not insane
I'm not insane, I'm not - not insane

(Mother)
Come back to me, it's almost easy
(Said it all)
Come back again, it's almost easy

Shame pulses through my heart
From the things I've done to you
It's hard to face, but the fact remains
That this is nothing new

I left you bound and tied with suicidal memories
Selfish beneath the skin
But deep inside I'm not insane.

I'm not insane, I'm not insane.
I'm not insane, I'm not - not insane.

(Mother)
Come back to me, it's almost easy
(Said it all)
Come back again, it's almost easy
(You'll learn your lesson)
Come back to me, it's almost easy
(But first you fall)
Come back again, it's almost easy

Now that I've lost you it kills me to say
(Hurts to say)
I've tried to hold on as you've slowly slipped away.
I'm losing the fight.
I've treated you so wrong, now let me make it right.
(Make it all right)

I'm not insane, I'm not insane. Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha
I'm not insane, I'm not - not insane.

(Mother)
Come back to me, it's almost easy
(Said it all)
Come back again, it's almost easy
(You'll learn your lesson)
Come back to me, it's almost easy
(But still you fall)
Come back again, it's almost easy

Avenged Sevenfold - Afterlife lyrics

Afterlife


by: Avenged Sevenfold 






Like walking into a dream, so unlike what you've seen
so unsure but it seems, 'cause we've been waiting for you
Fallen into this place, just giving you a small taste
of your afterlife here so stay, you'll be back here soon anyway

I see a distant light, but girl this can't be right
Such a surreal place to see so how did this come to be
Arrived too early

And when I think of all the places I just don't belong
I've come to grips with life and realize this is going too far

I don't belong here, we gotta move on dear escape from this afterlife

'Cause this time I'm right to move on and on, far away from here

A place of hope and no pain, perfect skies with no rain
Can leave this place but refrain, 'cause we've been waiting for you
Fallen into this place, just giving you a small taste
of your afterlife here so stay, you'll be back here soon anyway

This peace on earth's not right (with my back against the wall)
No pain or sign of time (I'm much too young to fall)
So out of place don't wanna stay, I feel wrong and that's my sign
I've made up my mind

Give me your hand but realize I just wanna say goodbye
Please understand I have to leave and carry on my own life

I don't belong here, I gotta move on dear escape from this afterlife
'Cause this time I'm right to move on and on, far away from here
Got nothing against you and surely I'll miss you
This place full of peace and light, and I'd hope you might
take me back inside when the time is right

Loved ones back home all crying 'cause they're already missing me
I pray by the grace of God that there's somebody listening
Give me a chance to be that person I wanna be
(Who are you?; I am unbroken; I'm choking on this ecstasy)
Oh Lord I'll try so hard but you gotta let go of me
(Unbreak me, unchain me, I need another chance to live)

I don't belong here, I gotta move on dear escape from this afterlife
'Cause this time I'm right to move on and on, far away from here
Got nothing against you and surely I'll miss you
This place full of peace and light, and I'd hope you might
take me back inside when the time is right

Avenged Sevenfold - A Little Piece Of Heaven lyrics

A Little Piece Of Heaven
by: Avenged Sevenfold

Before the story begins, is it such a sin,
for me to take what's mine, until the end of time
We were more than friends, before the story ends,
And I will take what's mine, create what God would never design


Our love had been so strong for far too long,
I was weak with fear that
something would go wrong,
before the possibilities came true,
I took all possibility from you


Almost laughed myself to tears,
(ha hahahahaha)
conjuring her deepest fears
(come here you fucking bitch)


Must have stabbed her fifty fucking times,
I can't believe it,
Ripped her heart out right before her eyes,
Eyes over easy, eat it, eat it, eat it


She was never this good in bed even when she was sleeping
now she's just so perfect I've never been quite so fucking deep in
it goes on and on and on,
I can keep you looking young and preserved forever,
with a fountain to spray on your youth whenever


’Cause I really always knew that my little crime
would be cold that's why I got a heater for your thighs
and I know, I know it's not your time
but bye, bye
and a word to the wise when the fire dies
you think it's over but it's just begun
but baby don't cry


You had my heart, at least for the most part
’cause everybody's gotta die sometime,
We fell apart, let's make a new start
’cause everybody's gotta die sometime, yeah
but baby don't cry


Now possibilities I'd never considered,
are occurring the likes of which I'd never heard,
Now an angry soul comes back from beyond the grave,
to repossess a body with which I'd misbehaved


Smiling right from ear to ear
Almost laughed herself to tears


Must have stabbed him fifty fucking times
I can't believe it
Ripped his heart out right before his eyes
Eyes over easy, eat it, eat it, eat it


Now that it's done I realize the error of my ways
I must venture back to apologize from somewhere far beyond the grave


I gotta make up for what I've done
’Cause I was all up in a piece of heaven
while you burned in hell, no peace forever


’Cause I really always knew that my little crime
would be cold that's why I got a heater for your thighs
and I know, I know it's not your time
but bye, bye
and a word to the wise when the fire dies
you think it's over but it's just begun
but baby don't cry


You had my heart, at least for the most part
’Cause everybody's gotta die sometime,
We fell apart, let's make a new start
’Cause everybody's gotta die sometime, yeah
But baby don't cry


I will suffer for so long
(What will you do, not long enough)
To make it up to you
(I pray to God that you do)
I'll do whatever you want me to do
(Well then I’ll grant you one chance) *
And if it's not enough
(If it’s not enough, If it’s not enough)
If it's not enough
(Not enough)
Try again
(Try again)
And again
(And again)
Over and over again


We’re coming back, coming back
We’ll live forever, live forever
Let’s have wedding, have a wedding
Let’s start the killing, start the killing


Do you take this man in death for the rest of your unnatural life?
Yes, I do
Do you take this woman in death for the rest of your unnatural life?
I do
I now pronounce you


’Cause I really always knew that my little crime
would be cold that's why I got a heater for your thighs
and I know, I know it's not your time
but bye, bye
And a word to the wise when the fire dies
you think it's over but it's just begun
but baby don't cry


You had my heart, at least for the most part
’Cause everybody's gotta die sometime,
We fell apart, let's make a new start
’Cause everybody's gotta die sometime, yeah
But baby don't cry

Avenged Sevenfold - 4:AM lyrics

4:AM
By: Avenged Sevenfold


There comes a day when we all find out for ourselves
That once we have the words to say, there's no one left to tell
I know why you're running away

There's a place where nothing seems to be a simple cry cohesively
It's all your mind, all your mind
Something little shouldn't feel this way, we got a million thoughts we can't convey
It's all your life, all your life

It's four in the morning, you got one more chance to die
Like beautiful stories, the greatest chapters flew right by
There comes a day when we all find out for ourselves
That once we have the words to say, there's no one left to tell
I know why you're running away

These things don't happen here, another fictional reality
It's all you'll find, all you'll find
It's just as good as any other day, I'm gonna teach you about mortality
No, it's not right, it's not right

It's four in the morning, you got one more chance to die
Like beautiful stories, the greatest chapters flew right by
There comes a day when we all find out for ourselves
That once we have the words to say, there's no one left to tell
I know why you're running away

In many ways, I guess I'll never let you go
I'm close behind but I've got room here left to grow
Until our second chance, just enjoy the dance,
And find out who we are (these dreams will never leave you)
Let's find out what we are (these dreams will never leave you)
(Never leave you asking why)

It's four in the morning, you got one more chance to die
Like beautiful stories, the greatest chapters flew right by
There comes a day when we all find out for ourselves
That once we have the words to say, there's no one left to tell
I know why you're running
I know why you're running away
