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 And now that's where I wanna pray The fun down here goes on and on
If I was perfect Then this would be easy Either road's plausible On both I could drown I walk through the 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 lives 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 So far down here, just holding on
If I was perfect Then this would be easy Either road's plausible On both I could drown I walk through the 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 right (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 that mountain again No one is going to save 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 Climb 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 road's plausible On both I could drown I walk through the center With no rules to guide me I realize it's difficult But now I can see, yeah.
Avenged Sevenfold Dancing Dead lyrics
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 socialise The look in their eyes Hide in the light!
Everything is paid for tonight While at the party of the Dead dancing in their graves The drinks here are free So relax Enjoy the sight of all the Dead dancing 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 watching the Dead dancing in their graves.
Bones covered up by suits As the visible scars, They multiply Kiss it good-bye Too stubborn and I will destroy!
Tick, tock The time bomb has been Recognized been pressurized Nowhere to hide Swallowing light!
Everything is paid for tonight While at the party of the Dead dancing in their graves. The drinks here are free So relax Enjoy the sight of all the Dead dancing 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 watching the Dead dancing in their graves
Feel a coming strength And now it's too late To change.
Everything is paid for tonight While at the party of the Dead dancing in their graves The drinks here are free So relax Enjoy the sight of all the Dead dancing 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 watching the Dead dancing in their graves
Avenged Sevenfold Demons lyrics
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 is a wicked dream, when things turn out all wrong Were 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, but 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 Where promises are made To no one but myself Help him Crushed daily
Don't lend me your hand I can't trust my self So how can you trust me
We've all made selfish, bad decisions We've all tried dishing out the blame Convinced our selves of our own actions My problem is I'll never change In doubt, some good comes out 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 had grown, but found out All my reasons for insanity, all a part of me
Truth won't help you now All the loves gone too far
Truth won't help you now All the loves gone too far
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
Avenged Sevenfold Girl I Know lyrics
Let me tell you 'bout a girl I know That comes alive when you take off her clothes There's no telling just where she's 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 that's 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 she's here for you It's 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 She's more comfortable down on her knees Went to school, got a job, and then she shot into hell All 'cause she's born to please
Don't get her mixed up 'cause she knows what she likes Can 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 she's here for you It's 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 She's 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 she's here for you It's all yours tonight You won't believe the stories I've been told About the girl I know
Avenged Sevenfold Tension lyrics
I wake up every morning, bright and early Roll out of bed but I'm never quite alone Tension is pulling me in all directions And I'll be done once you use me as a rope Sometimes the pressure will just drive you crazy At any time I could explode I need some piece of mind, it's got me tired Don't wanna lose it, but I'm turning down that road
I need a moment 'cause I've dragged myself to thin We all need a moment in our lives Works hard, the days too long And that's just where it begins Tension has had us all this time
I sit in traffic every single morning Just as I arrive, I'm slaving to the grind Making the money so I feed my family But I can't raise them, 'cause I ain't got the time I got no free days on my busy schedule I turn the page and it's the same Don't like my situation, you don't either Don't wanna look back scared, I will get away
I need a moment 'cause I've dragged myself to thin We all need a moment in our lives Works hard, the days too long And that's just where it begins Tension has had us all this time
But every now and then I drive alone an open road Hot summer days A gentle breeze that feels alright Home alone And I can't feel the pain Only strain Enjoy the sights I feel alive When actually here just feels alright Far from home
I need a moment 'cause I've dragged myself to thin We all need a moment in our lives Works hard, the days too long And that's just where it begins Tension has had us all this time
Avenged Sevenfold The Fight lyrics
The problem with society's been how do we teach And if they'll believe. We'll fight this battle for years to come 'til we all accept that we can stand on our own. Grandfather used his hands, he worked them to the bone. Provide his family with a happy home, alone.
Don't take your aggression out on me. My own man is all I'm meant to be. This common place is so lazy, old, and tired All your ideas are so fucking uninspired. Takes more than one idea More than one person to fight the fight How many times have you taught and not conspired?
Don't wanna be, they never say But don't call us the liars
We've walked these alleys a thousand times And scattered around a thousand lies. They are trying to hold you down Your life may be hard But keep your feet on the ground. Why don't I have the finer things that others have? The chance is there if you want it all that bad. So bad.
Don't take your aggression out on me. My own man is all I'm meant to be. This common place is so lazy, old, and tired All your ideas are so fucking uninspired. Takes more than one idea More than one person to fight the fight How many times have you taught and not conspired?
Don't try and get me confused. Cause I do understand. And sometimes people need help. That they may need a hand When this problems going on. A thing you have to get straight Is that you don't hold my hand. And I don't owe you a thing. So don't think about how sorry You feel when now your treated so bad.
This common place is so lazy, old, and tired All your ideas are so fucking uninspired. Takes more than one idea More than one person to fight the fight How many times have you told and not conspired
And as a race we look back and we’ve come so far. While some may conquer, the others had it so hard. But instead we just complain while there’s no one for us to fight. I guess we’re bored and that's how we keep us occupied
Avenged Sevenfold Until The End lyrics
Weekends on young and angry streets We meet, drink 'till trouble found us there Living life as without a care(without a care) We've had our fights, been black and blue It's true, I've even gone to jail for you my friends Bet your life that I'd do it again.
(Until the End)
Don't change the way you think of me We're from the same story Life moves on, can't stay the same But some of us, some worry
While some have gone their separate ways There's some still caught up with the past instead But move on, you're missing most of your life(life) They say it's hard to stay the same When some fail, while other men seem to gain, but friends I'll be with you here until the end
(Until the End)
Don't change the way you think of me We're from the same story Life moves on, can't stay the same But some of us, some worry We're all falling forward With no signs of slow And some moving faster But that's all that I wanted I wanted
You know it's hard It's passing by Memories Be out all night To reminisce wont bring you back Just look ahead and hold on tight We're all falling forward With no signs of slow And some moving faster That's all that I wanted I wanted

1. To End The Rapture
The wind of life and air from above smells of death. Angels sing of the end. Nothing you say and nothing you try will change time. Human race prepares to die...
2. Turn The Other Way
Slit my wrists, take away the pain. Slit my throat, there's no one to blame. Lost in the fields of confusion. Restless nights, they're not far away. I came here for something and I'm not turning back. A calm piece of mind but you still hold my keys. Keeping my fate deep within your threshold. Petty inconvenience but it means the world to me. You have the power. To set me free. Caught in your grasp, how? Just let me be. Give me control out. Out of these depths. A fiery hell. I pray for death. I've been the wrong one time and time again. Now I'm on my knees forgive me please. Tore out my heart and handed to me on a silver platter. Sew up the hole, emptiness in the place of compassion. You made me this way. I am the product of your creation. Look the other way. Now you've turned your back on me. You've turned away from me, the future's much to far away to see. I hope you learn the truth, not the way things were meant to be with me and you.
3. Darkness Surrounding
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, time 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.
4. Art Of Subconscious Illusion
A living nightmare, asleep but still aware. The endless torture. The painless pleasure. I grasp myself. Trying to regain control. I experience and learn. In another faction of my mind. So confused. But everything makes perfect sense. Can't feel the pain. Emotional pain s so much deadlier. Lost, you've just been raped. Pain. Your friends can't help you. Why wont they help you? Another reality. This can't be happening. Why is this happening? Who the fuck are you? Who the fuck. Are you? Trying hard to figure out what s done. I scramble but now I run. The images in my head. All the problems that I've been fed. Punching slowly my mind can't change the speed. As my victims bleed. No matter what I do or how hard I try. I can t use my abilities. Use my abilities. Art of Illusion. My razor sharp knife s edge, pierces my victim's body. But I can't take their soul. Punching through jello, stabbing not killing. Disappointment. Discomfort.
5. We Come Out At Night
Black and gray clouds willow in the balance as the sun falls. Rain plays a heart warming tune, on the pavement. Emotions stir. A feeling of warmness, compassion, fullness, I feel at home. Disguised by surroundings. As the torn and left in the gutter seek vengeance on their mistreated lives. As the torn and left in the cold, seek vengeance on mistreated lives. A silhouette stands still. A cactus on a warm summer night. But the rain falls cold and the moon shines bright. Black as night. Cold as ice. Warm as home. Ready to live. Stars they shoot. In a clear. Across the sky. As does my time. Waiting, wanting, feeling, emotion. Crying, breaking, loving, nothing. Clouds swallow the moon, and I'm alone, thinking good times, and why'd they go? Falling down, breaking down parts of me. Fuck. I need this place to get away from you.
6. Lips Of Deceit
The mark I breathe on you. It's burning through your soul. The breath I waste. Losing control. I bleed in pain. Testing what I know. Lips soaked in deceit. Pull me from here. No one s innocent. So why do I feel bad? But guilt keeps creeping, creeping up on me. Guilt. Tearing me up inside. The innocent. An evil in disguise. The face of beauty to fall for. I fall to my knees, deceitful. Brought down by feelings of regret. Again your mind has failed the test. Not everyone feels the same. Pacifist blinded by the game. Stand tall. They'll break your heart. Stand tall. They'll smash your ego. Stand tall. They'll tear you down. Stand tall. Scar your soul. Break your thought. Fuck your mind. The mark I breathe on you. It s burning through your soul. The breath I waste. Losing control. I bleed in pain. Testing what I know. Lips soaked in deceit. Pull me from this hole.
7. Warmness On The Soul
Your hazel green tint eyes watching every move I make. And that feeling of doubt, it's erased. I'll never feel alone again with you by my side. You're the one, and in you I confide. And we have gone through good and bad times. But your unconditional love was always on my mind. You've been there from the start for me. And your loves always been true as can be. I give my heart to you. I give my heart, cause nothing can compare in this world to you.
8. Epic Of Time Wasted
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.
9. Breaking Their Hold
When you see them coming in form. And they say they do what's best for you. Fighting for one total control. They are planned and organized for you. Breaking their hold. Breaking their hold of control they strive. To keep you down, behind your back, the time has come, the end is near. It's when you sleep, so late at night, and in the light, getting prepared. It's not to help you, but help their cause, under one system, you wont exist. They are the few, with all the power, our system screams, we can't let them tear our hearts out. Screaming, pulling on our pride. Stand together for the right cause, one system to our demise.
10. Forgotten Faces
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 dead. 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.
11. Thick And Thin
I don't want to know. And I don't want to see you in this place. Your kind is a disgrace as I spit in your face. And I don't want to hear anymore. A friend is fucked with while he's having fun on the dance floor. Get the fuck out of here now. Come on you kids, stand your ground. This is your show, it s your family. All of my friends there for me. There's four-hundred more of us then them. So kick them out. Keep it positive. Keep it real. Keep it true. Together with my friends. I'll be there for you. Through the problems thick and thin and problems we'll fight through. This is to my brothers, I ll be there for you. Through the problems thick and thin and problems we'll fight through. This is to my family. I'll be there for you.
12. Streets
You live your whole life staring at a wall, your mind goes blank sooner now you will fall. You never learned the things you say to know now, but how? There seems to be a difference, two different types of kids. The ones who go out and the ones that are taught to live. One groups taught how and the other group is taught why. There's no need to tell you what's in my mind, but in the game of life I'm doing fine. No reason to tell you which way to be. Cause the streets have opened my eyes to see. Look what's happening now. What are the reasons why and how? And don't you think it sounds stupid when someone's treated different cause they're not the same as me or you?
13. Shattered By Broken Dreams
I see you fading away from us. I'll miss you very much. Room with empty bottles, broken dreams, and pride still running high, always on your side. But I wanted more for you. You can't go on this way. And now I see it all fall through. We pray for better days. Stuck alone and scared. Throw your life away and now choking on your pride may be the only way. I don't want to see you like this. We all tried to save you but missed. I still feel the hope on your road. Now come back to us like the days of the old. I still feel you there, trying to get on top. You'll always have my support, in my heart. People you've hurt. Friends that you've lied to. But we understand, and that s not (you) can see the end of the road, I can see it too, for you, I'm scared, if I lose you, I'm not prepared. This time, if you die. I watch you, right before my eyes. Just trust me, and listen. You have no self control. This will take your life. Overdose and then indulge until you die. Pondering, we all ask the question why. Broken home, and then abandoned by your dad. And we are left the only family that you've ever had. Help you see it through. Fight this me and you. Reaching deep inside. Problems not just you is what we find. Our friendship makes it mine.
