Victim

House full of roses
A letter on the stairs
A tape full of messages
For anyone who cares
Collage of broken words
and stories full of tears
Remembering your life
Cause we wish that you were here

Nothing is harder
Than to wake up all alone
Realize it’s not okay
It’s the end of all you know
Time keeps passing by
But it seems I’m frozen still
Scars are left behind
But some too deep to feel

And some say this can’t be real
And I’ve lost my power to feel tonight
We’re all just victims of a crime
When all’s gone and can’t be regained
We can’t seem to shelter the pain inside
We’re all just victims of a crime

Some days you’ll find me
In the place I like to go
Ask questions to myself
‘Bout the things I’ll never know
What’s left to find
‘Cause I need a little more
I need a little time
Can we even up the score?

And some say this can’t be real
And I’ve lost my power to feel tonight
We’re all just victims of a crime
When all’s gone and can’t be regained
We can’t seem to shelter the pain inside
We’re all just victims of a crime

And nothing lasts forever
For all good days it’s true
I’d rather tred it all
For somehow saving you
And must have been the season
That’ve threw us out of mind
Once i stood so tall
Now I’m searching for a sign

So don’t need your salvation
With promises and kind
And all those speculation
Save it for another time
‘Cause we don’t need a reason
A reason just to stay
Some just can’t be bothered
To stick around another day

And some say this can’t be real
And I’ve lost my power to feel tonight
We’ve all been victims of a crime
When all is gone and can’t be regained
we can’t seem to shelter the pain inside (oh)
We’ve all been victims of a crime
Victims of a crime
Living with this crime

I’m missing you
I’m missing you
I’m missing you
I’m missing you

Tonight The World Dies

Lost the meaning of our stay
Learn to live another day
Doubt the choices that we've made
I know that we can't hide our shame
It's only in disguise

Drowning in our own debris
Fool our thoughts as though we're free
Close our eyes so we can see
The depth of all we mean to be
If only in my eyes

I don't mind(read the writing on the wall)
Mother cries (tortured voices as we crawl)
Find me on my better days
To lose me once again... in a way

So try and love me while you can
And take the time to understand
As long as I can touch your face
You know I'll never leave this place
If only in my mind

I don't mind (read the writing on the wall)
Mother cries (tortured voices as we crawl)
Find me on my better days
To lose it once again, in a way
But I seem to find better ways to consciously pretend

Silence all I wanna say
With tendencies to run away
I run away with you tonight
Launder all my sins away
And just like that mistakes are made
You know, tonight the world dies

I don't mind (read the writing on the wall)
Mother cries (tortured voices as we crawl)
Find me on my better days
To lose it once again
But I seem to find better ways to consciously pretend

Fiction

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.

[The Rev]

Not that I could

Nor 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.

Now this hurt can finally fade

Promise me you'll never be afraid.

[The Rev]

Not the I could

Nor 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 know 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

Save Me

SKULL!

(They all know, they all know! )

Sorry, did I wake your dreams?
Some questions run to deep.
We only (only) wake up when we sleep.
Led by the lunar light, trouble's all we find
Lost our way tonight

Is it something we said?
Is it something we said to them?
Is it something we said!

(Save me)
Trapped in a vile world,
(Save me)
Where the end games all the same as every other.
We're only here to die.
(Save me)
I'm losing my only dream.
(Save me)
I can use some guiding light, some place to go.
If you hear me, let me know.

They all know, They all know!

Ever since the day you left my fate's been set unknown.
How many years to walk this path alone?
So much to see tonight, so why'd you close your eyes?
Why can't I shut mine?

Is it something we did?
Is it something we did to them?
Is it something we did!

(Save me)
Trapped in a vile world,
(Save me)
Where the end games all the same as every other.
We're only here to die.
(Save me)
I'm losing my only dream.
(Save me)
I can use some guiding light, some place to go.
If you hear me, let me know.
If you hear me, let me know.

So, help me find my way
I said help me find my way, yeah

No pulse inside of me,
Stone cold lips and heresy.
All lies and to a degree,
Losing who I want to be.

(Find out, right now.)

He may be out of his mind, but someday you will find,
That sanity left us all blind, and dragged us all behind,
A moment seen through those eyes, crystal blue disguise,
They say that all beauty must die, I say it just moves on...

If you'd only open your mind, then some day you will find,
Insanity left us behind, and walked right through the door.
I can see the picture's clear as yesterday, pictures all my own
I can hear the voices begging you to stay, but know you're not alone.

(Save me)
Trapped in a vile world,
(Save me)
Where the end games all the same as every other.
We're only here to die.
(Save me)
I'm losing my only dream.
(Save me)
I can use some guiding light, some place to go.
If you hear me, let me know.
If you hear me, let me know.

Tonight we all die young.
Tonight we all die young.
Tonight we all die young.
Tonight we all die young.
Tonight we all die young.
Tonight we all die young.
Tonight we all die.
Tonight we all die young!

Natural Born Killer

One snap for the dying
One click to end the day
Another story with a mangled scene
It couldn't happen any other way

You wanna talk about it?
I'm begging you to walk in my shoes any time
Watch the clock 'til you unwind
You wanna cry about it?
It's making me consider that I lost my mind
The way I see you must be blind

So this is the world you left behind
This is the guilt that consumes you

So die alone
This is the one thing that I won't do
So say your prayers
'Cause I ain't leaving here without you

Can't bribe me with money
Can't shower me with shame
Another killer from a broken home
Until you covered me with manic fame

You wanna know about it?
Well I'ma be fucking with you every time
Story broke and you're behind
And when you ask about it,
You can rest assured I'll give you my best side
Seem we all have friends to find

So this is the hate I've been born to
Full are the tales of the untrue

So die alone
This is the one thing that I won't do
So say your prayers
'Cause I ain't leaving here without you

And I'm waiting
Waiting for the days to slowly pass me by
(And all the promises I'll find)
No hesitating, you pull the trigger now your story's left behind
I know you want to see me fry,
Like my soul, you won't survive

So die alone
This is the one thing that I won't do
So say your prayers
'Cause I ain't leaving here without you

To die unknown
Would crush the fish lens we all see through
To kill the glare
Expose the ugliness we hold true

God Hate Us

Total Nightmare!
Total Nightmare!

You wanna hear my side?
You need to drown to know
With 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
Pills had a role now there's nothing to take
Nothing to trust
Noone to fake!
You'll find out sooner that it's best if we just know our place!

My infiltrated mind!

[ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/god-hates-us-lyrics-avenged-sevenfold.html ]

My lacerated soul
It took me years, create me, control you
I left myself for an idea I stole!

God Save Us!
God Save Us All!
God Hates Us!
God Hates Us All!
Total Nightmare!
Total Nightmare!

Liar Rape kill, Love Hate Fear

You better take your time
You better take it slow
Cuz when you seek the one
There's Nothing left to show

Total Nightmare!
Total Nightmare!

Danger Line

My 16 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 site... 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.

Now I find myself in my own blood
The damage done is far beyond repair
I never put my 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 care
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
