AVENGED SEVENFOLD LYRICS - M.I.A.

Staring at the carnage, praying that the sun will never rise.
Living another day in disguise.
These feelings cant be right, lend me your courage to stand up and fight, on tonight.

Ooooo....
Stand up and fight.

Now fighting rages on and on, to challenge me you must be strong.
I'll walk your land but don't belong, two million soldiers can't be wrong.

It's no fun but I've been here before.
I'm far from home and I'm fighting your war.
(Not the way I pictured this, I wanted better things)
Some are scared others killing for fun, I shot a mother in front of her son.
(Change this from my consciousness and please erase my dreams)

Fight for honor, fight for your life.
Pray to god that our side is right.
You know we won but still we lose, until I make it home to you.
I see your mother still in tears we grew up so fast where did those years go.
Memories wont let you cry unless I don't return tonight.

So many soldiers on the other side, I take their live so they don't take mine.
(Scared to make it out alive now murders all I know.)
Nobody tells me all the reasons were here, I am a weapon so there's nothing to fear.
(Another day another life but nothing real to show for.)

Fight for honor, fight for your life.
Pray to god that our side is right.
You know we won but still we lose, until I make it home to you.
I see your mother still in tears we grew up so fast where did those years go.
Memories won't let you cry unless I don't return tonight.

Staring at the carnage, praying that the sun will never rise.
Living another day in disguise.
These feelings cant be right, lend me your courage to stand up and fight.

Watching the death toll rise wondering how im alive.
Strangers blood on my hands, showed all I can.
There were no sunny nights watching your brothers all die
To destroy all their plans with no thought of me. (No thought of me)
No thought of me.

Ohhhhh.....

We'll walk the city lonely, memories that are not passing by.
A murderer walks your streets tonight.
Forgive me for my crimes.
Don't forget that I was so young, but so scared.
In the name of God and Country.

Bat Country - Avenged Sevenfold Live in the LBC

He who makes a beast out of himselfGets rid of the pain of being a manCaught here in a fiery blaze, won't lose my will to stayI tried to drive all through the nightThe heat stroke ridden weather, the barren empty sightsNo oasis here to seeThe sand is singing deathless words to meCan't you help me? As I'm startin' to burn(All alone)Too many doses and I'm starting to get an attractionMy confidence is leaving me on my own(All alone)No one can save me and you know I don't want the attentionAs I adjust to my new sightsThe rarely tired lights will take me to new heightsMy hand is on the trigger I'm ready to igniteTomorrow might not make it but everything's all rightMental fiction follow meShow me what it's like to be set freeCan't you help me? As I'm startin' to burn(All alone)Too many doses and I'm starting to get an attractionMy confidence is leaving me on my own(All alone)No one can save me and you know I don't want the attentionI'm sorry you're not hereI've been sane too long my vision's so unclearNow take a trip with meBut don't be surprised when things aren't what they seemCaught here in a fiery blaze, won't lose my will to stayThese eyes won't see the same, after I flip todaySometimes I don't know why we'd rather live than dieWe look up towards the sky for answers to our livesWe may get some solutions but most just pass us byDon't want your absolution 'cause I can't make it rightI'll make a beast out of myselfGets rid of all the pain of being a manCan't you help me? As I'm startin' to burn(All alone)Too many doses and I'm starting to get an attractionMy confidence is leaving me on my own(All alone)No one can save me and you know I don't want the attentionI'm sorry you're not hereI've been sane too long my vision's so unclearNow take a trip with meBut don't be surprised when things aren't what they seemI've known it from the startAll these good ideas will tear your brain apartScared but you, you follow meI'm too weird to live but much too rare to die

Avenged Seven - Almost Easy (Live) *KERRANG! EXCLUSIVE*

I feel insane every single timeI'm asked to compromiseCause I'm afraid and stuck in my waysAnd that's the way it staysSo 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 insaneI'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 heartFrom the things I've done to youIt's hard to face, but the fact remainsThat this is nothing new
I left you bound and tied with suicidal memoriesSelfish beneath the skinBut 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 HaI'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 - Dancing Dead Video & Lyrics

Dead men, They celebrate As the final chapter Fades away Cuz 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 Hide in 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'll get a room watchin the Dead dancin in their graves Bones covered up by suit As the visible scars, They multiply Kiss it good-bye Too stubborn and I'll destroy! Tick, tock The time bomb has been Recognized and pressurized Nowhere to hide Swallowing 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'll get a room watchin the Dead dancin in their graves Feel a coming strength And now it's too late To change.

Avenged Sevenfold-Strength of The World Lyrics

My story starts the day they said "she can't be found"the news so dark, heart stopped, I stood silent without a soundIt's over, she's finished, mother lies with my father and sister tooCold-blooded, they suffered, shot down by the outlaws after youSorrow swallows my screamsStrength of the world - is on my shouldersStrength of the world - is on my sideStrength of the world - the one true beholderIce in my veins - for those who've diedI've seen my family fade away, you've taken my whole lifeThere's nothing left to sayAvenge the dead kill all who cross me in my pathSuicidal, I never planned on coming backI want it, I need it, revenge is dripping from my teethNeed nothin', to feel power, and bring the killers to their kneesNothin' ta lose vengeance ta gain (you know I'll never be the same)So taste my breath I'm close behind you (so desperate on your final day)Sorrow swallows my screamsSitting in silence with heaven above me I prayed every night by their gravesWhile I thirst for closure I feel it grow strongerI can't turn my cheek awayI stand before you; I'll sin when I have toBut now I leave your side, to avenge my family's prideSo far forever alone, a greater punishment on me has been imposedA killer falling from the light, I'll miss you my family, I'll never be alright
