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

Welcome To The Family

Hey kid (hey kid)
Do I have your attention?
I know the way you've been living
Life so reckless, tragedy endless
Welcome to the family

Hey, there's something missing
Only time will alter your vision
Never in question, lethal injection
Welcome to the family

Not long ago you'd find the answers were so crystal clear
Within a day you find yourself living in constant fear
Can you look at yourself now?
Can you look at yourself?
You can't win this fight

And in a way it seems there's no one to call
When our thoughts are so numb and our feelings insecure
We all have emptiness inside
We all have answers to find
But you can't win this fight

Hey (hey kid)
I have to question
What's with the violent aggression?
Details blurry, lost him too early
Welcome to the family

Hey, why won't you listen?
Can't help the people you're missing
It's been done, a casualty re-run
Welcome to the family

I try and help you with the things that can't be justified
I need to warn you that there is no way to rationalize
So have you figured it out now?
So have you figured it out?
You can't win this fight

And in a way it seems there's no one to call
When our thoughts are so numb and our feelings unsure
We all have emptiness inside
We all have answers to find
But you can't win this fight

Gunning for you and all mankind
I've lost my mind
Psychotic rabid dementia
I won't be fine

I see you're a king who's been dethrone
Cast out in a world you've never known
Stand down, place your weapons by your side
It's our war, in the end we'll surely lose but that's alright

So have you figured it out now?
So have you figured it out?

And in a way it seems there's no one to call
When our thoughts are so numb and our feelings unsure
We all have emptiness inside
We all have answers to find
But you can't win this fight

Deep inside where nothing's fine
I've lost my mind
You're not invited, so step aside
I've lost my,
Deep inside where nothing's fine
I've lost my mind
You're not invited, so step aside
I've lost my...

Buried Alive

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 ya 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

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

I walked 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

[Chorus]
Hey I can't live in here for another day
Darkness has kept the light concealed
Grim as ever
Hold onto 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 fucking 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 [X2]

This is now your life
Die buried alive

So Far Away

Never feared for anything
Never shamed but never free
A life to heal the broken heart with all that it could

Lived a life so endlessly
Saw beyond what others see
I tried to heal your broken heart with all that I could

Will you stay?
Will you stay away forever?

How do I live without the ones I love?
Time still turns the pages of the book it's burned
Place and time always on my mind
I have so much to say but you're so far away

Plans of what our futures hold
Foolish lies of growing old
It seems we're so invincible
The truth is so cold

A final song, a last request
A perfect chapter laid to rest
Now and then I try to find a place in my mind

Where you can stay
You can stay away forever

How do I live without the ones I love?
Time still turns the pages of the book it's burned
Place and time always on my mind

[ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/so-far-away-lyrics-avenged-sevenfold.html ]

I have so much to say but you're so far away

Sleep tight, I'm not afraid
The ones we love are here with me
Lay away a place for me
Cause as soon as I'm done I'll be on my way
To live eternally

How do I live without the ones I love?
Time still turns the pages of the book it's burned
Place and time always on my mind
And the light you left remains but it's so hard to stay
When I have so much to say and you're so far away

I love you
You were ready
The pain is strong and urges rise
But I'll see you
When it lets me
Your pain is gone, your hands are untied

So far away
And I need you to know

So far away
And I need you to
I need you to know

Nightmare Lyrics. By Avenged Sevenfold

Nightmare
(Now your nightmare comes to life)

Dragged you down below
Down to the devil’s show
To be his guest forever
(Peace of mind is less than never)
Hate to twist your mind
But God ain’t on your side
An old acquaintance severed
(Burn the world your last endeavor)

Flesh is burning, you can smell it in the air
'Cause men like you have such an easy soul to steal (steal)
So stand in line while they ink numbers in your head
You’re now a slave until the end of time here
Nothing stops the madness turning, haunting, yearning, pull the trigger

You should have known
The price of evil
And it hurts to know that you belong here, yeah
Ooooh
It’s your fuckin’ nightmare
(While your nightmare comes to life)

Can’t wake up in sweat
'Cause it ain’t over yet
Still dancin' with your demons
(Victim of your own creation)
Beyond the will to fight
Where all that’s wrong is right
Where hate don’t need a reason
(Loathing self-assassination)

You’ve been lied to just to rape you of your sight
And now they have the nerve to tell you how to feel (feel)
So sedated as they medicate your brain
And while you slowly go insane they tell ya
"Given with the best intentions,
Help you with your complications"

You should have known
The price of evil
And it hurts to know that you belong here, yeah
No one to call
Everybody to fear
Your tragic fate is looking so clear, yeah
Ooooh
It’s your fuckin’ nightmare
Hahahaha

(Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha)

Fight (fight)
Not to fail (fail)
Not to fall (fall)
Or you’ll end up like the others
Die (die)
Die again (die)
Drenched in sin (sin)
With no respect for another

Oh

Down (down)
Feel the fire (fire)
Feel the hate (hate)
Your pain is what we desire
Lost (lost)
Hit the wall (wall)
Watch you crawl (crawl)
Such a replaceable liar

And I know you hear their voices
(Calling from above)
And I know they may seem real
(These signals of love)
But our life’s made up of choices
(Some without appeal)
They took for granted your soul
And it’s ours now to steal
(As your nightmare comes to life)

You should have known
The price of evil
And it hurts to know that you belong here, yeah
No one to call
Everybody to fear
Your tragic fate is looking so clear, yeah
Ooooh
It’s your fuckin’ nightmare

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, 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 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, 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
