Game Over lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
Open, blurry, nurture, loving
Crawling, walking, fleeting, glory
Welcome, brother, stranger, bloody
Ally, teacher, recess, buddy
Secret, toothless, fairy, pillow
Money, kissing, nervous, hero
Warmly ordinary
This daytime TV satisfies
Extra ordinary
These hand-me-downs worn in so nice
As it may, as it may, as it may, as it may
As it may, as it may, as it may, as it may
Days are fine and come on time
But years leave with nothing to find
Changes, hormones, high school, threesome
Roll call, study, license, freedom
Novice, flirting, first time, lover
Party, fighting, wasted, summer
Questions, doubtful, wedding, family
Happy, ever, after, dead end
Daily iteration
The bestest part of waking up
Mundane ideation
This dark roast got me (So fucked up)
As it may, as it may, as it may, as it may
As it may, as it may, as it may, as it may
Days, they come and days, they go
Until no more days set you free
Well on my way, my way to lose me
It strikes me that I don't belong here anymore
As I observe my own reflection, try a happy face
Staring through the warm tears, a sad frown from the cold years
Adieu, I never had the will anyway
Toss a rope over the branch and fall into the night
And here I swing, from my family tree
Say goodnight
Can't you see?
Life is but a dream anyway
Mattel lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
My vinyl skin provides protection
It holds in place my plastic bones
Cast button eyes reflect an image
And all seems as it should
But there's nobody home
Cue the breeze
That sway the painted trees
Toy yellow birds upon the rooftops sing
In chorus with the buzzing bees
Melt in Sun L.E.D. beams
From the sky being held on a string
While boredom tears me apart at the seams
Now I know this might sound crazy
But I've smelled the plastic daisies
And it seems we've found ourselves
In
Hell
Round head consumed with major nothings
Ears made of wax unfit to hear
Day after day, it all plays over
Dedicated loop
Same year after year
Please attend
All model citizens
R.S.V.P. if we can count you in
Empty as we play pretend
Send our thoughts with you and to your kin
And in case I don't see you again
Good afternoon, good evening, and good night
Now I know this might sound crazy
But I've smelled the plastic daisies
And it seems we've found ourselves
In
Hell
Living feign in porcelain
And just smart enough to know nothing at all
Pull my string and make me cry
Advertisement, moral scrawl
A semblance of choice when there's no choice at all
Out of stock, 'the end is nigh'
Burn
Body burn
Burn
Now I know this might sound crazy
But I've smelled the plastic daisies
And it seems we've found ourselves
In hell
Nobody lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
Ride in the shadows wandering beyond the frame
Float like a feather through space and time outside a dream
Pirouette with divinity in a dance we've shared before
"Someone dissolution"
This is "I am all" as "I am none"
Here we fly so high, no, I, no coming down
Shedding weight as I'm coming undone
All that's left converging as one
I am the sun
I am the sun
I'm a God, I'm awake, I'm the one in everything
I'm alive, I'm the dead, I'm a man without a head
(I'm a God, I'm awake, I'm the one in everything)
I walk with death in final exhalation
And come apart through violent separation
A thousand floors ascend into the ether
A lunatic enchanted by the reaper
(I'm alive, I'm the dead, I'm a man without a head)
And down below I leave a stranger laying lifeless as the light begins to shatter the skies
I ascend and leave behind the "used to be"
And tear the fabric worn to cover my eyes and see
I see
I see
Nobody
Breathe in the silence, ebb and flow among the waves
Blur on the spectrum in light come dark in equal phase
All I ever was, has been and always will be
Here I end as I started again beyond death and borne on the wind
I am the sun
I am the sun
I'm a God, I'm awake, I'm the one in everything
I'm alive, I'm the dead, I'm a man without a head
A crack in the darkness
A tear in the sky
(I'm the one in everything)
A narrow moment when we find ourselves
And all we occupy
Return to the boundless
Immerse in the free
(I'm a man without a head)
Letting go as you lose your name
And all you've known to be
Nobody
Nobody
Nobody
Nobody
We Love You lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
There you are, you've come so far
Sunny days, the air tastes so sweet, flowers greet
Birds will sing you mean everything
You can be anything
More power
More pace
More money
More taste
More sex
More pills
More skin
More shills
Build tall
Build higher
Build far
Build wider
Build here
Build down
Build up
Build now
Look at the way you go
You're one in a million
And you know it shows
And we love you
Unto the mud
More wants
More needs
More hits
Morphine
More speed
More drive
More self
More time
Build out
Build fast
Build strong
Build vast
Build too
Build more
Build all
Build war
Look at the way you go
You're one in a million
And you know it shows
And we love you
Do unto the mud
Mud
Race to scale the body stack
Lay foot to face atop broken back
A failure here is a failure earned
So do unto the top
Do unto the end
Do unto the mud
Do
More power
More pace
More money
More taste
More sex
More pills
More skin
More shills

Look at the way you go
You're one in a million
And you know it shows
And we love you
Look at the way that you choose
You know you'll never lose
And all that you are
It was all you deserved anyway
Sunny days
And we love you
And we love you
And we love you
Cosmic lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
Fade
From all that was before
We shut another door
But not a last goodbye
Fate
Has taken once again
A fight we'll never win
And time again we try
Left alone, I can't wait too long
Fade
Love
We loved so many times
And in so many lives
Sometimes we got it right
Pain
It found its way back in
Until we meet again
Into that good night
None too far as we chase through the stars beyond forever
I'll follow you
Dancing in the wind as roses born again
There you'll find me
Before the dawn of man, in castles made of sand
There you'll find me
Writing in the caves as fire lights the way
There you'll find me
Mask of royal glow don in pharaoh's clothes
There you'll find me
Let it go
Yeah
Rings of dust and ice weightless in the night
There you'll find me
Let it go
Dancing in the wind as roses born again
There you'll find me
Before the dawn of man in castles made of sand
There you'll find me
Writing in the caves as fire lights the way
There you'll find me
Mask of royal glow don in pharaoh's clothes
There you'll find me
From all that was before
We shut another door
But not a last goodbye
Taken once again
A fight we'll never win
And time again we try
I'm gone
We loved so many times
And in so many lives
I'm gone
Sometimes we got it right
I'm gone
It found it's way back in
Until we meet again
I'm gone
Into that good
Beautiful Morning lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
I sit stoic
Touch of the divine upon my neck
Lay me gently
Take my body down, let me ascend
Help me to hear and hear me to save
And save me before I've gone too far
Let me inhale my passage to hell
While slowly exhaling the scar
You walk on water
But the water swallows you
I lay quiet
Floating in the stillness of this tomb
Headstone empty
Choking on the flowers as they bloom
No one to know and no where to hide
And nothing of me I've left behind
Silence of one the meaning of none
And letting it all go to be
You walk on water
But the water swallows you
You're like no other
You're the other one in view
Don't let it be
Don't let it be
Don't let it
It's a beautiful morning
It's a beautiful day
Everybody is smiling
In a beautiful way
I took a walk to paint the flowers and the trees
The sun reflected gazing fondly on me
I made a picture and I put it in the rays outside
It washed the paint away and carried me home
I have finally arrived
There's no one but you... two
Dressed in armor
Just the hollow shell I was before
Help me to turn my attention on me
So empty just as I was before
Let me exhale concession to hell
While slowly embracing the scar
You walk on water
But the water swallows you
And you're like no other
You're the other one in view
Don't let it be
You walk on water
Don't let it be, don't let it be
But the water swallows you
Don't let it be
Don't let it, don't let it
And you're like no other
Don't let it be, don't let it be
You're the other one in view
Don't let it be
Easier lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
It's easier to just walk away
I know you'll see brighter days along the way
I've been shaped by peaks and valleys
Found a plateau where I cursed at the sky
Sometimes I feel that the rain falls for me
Bound to the flesh till the day that I die
It's easier to just walk away
I know you'll see brighter days along the way
Days like this come as days go
And all that you love just as soon be goodbyes
What was so far for so long now behind me
What
Far
Long
So hold applause till the end of the ride
It's easier to just walk away
I know you'll see brighter days along the way
It's easier to just walk away
I know you'll see brighter days along the way
It's easier, it's easier
Easier
Easier, easier
It's easier
G lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
I am the man
Six days of bullshit, a wave of my hand
And you know what I need
Put your hands together, get down on your knees
Or climb a hill and just don't talk
I never made a man didn't trip when they walk the walk
It's so chic and we love
What you've done with the place
Compliments you with style and grace
Can't tell me that all I see
Ain't a gift from the fabulous one
Thought about a name that came to me
Can you explain why the phone would ring?
Prayed so hard and oh my Lord
I got a spot at the front of the lot
Can't be late for my weekly date
'Cause we're gonna save someone
What? What have I done?
Jesus Christ
You gotta be kidding me
I am the plan
Cheap imitations by obsessive fans
But you're great, and fun to watch
On the seventh day I thought about world peace
But I decided just to take it off
Ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh
It's so chic and we love
What you've done with the place
Compliments you with style and grace
Can't tell me that all I see
Ain't a gift from the fabulous one
Thought about a name that came to me
Explain why the phone would ring
Prayed so hard and oh my Lord
I got a spot at the front of the lot
Can't be late for my weekly date
'Cause we're gonna save someone
Ahh fuck, give me a delete button
Delete! Not too bad for a first try
Wen robot
(O)rdinary lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
Will you give me my own soul?
Will you let me take control?
I wanna see the things that you see
I wanna be the human you be
I wanna know the secrets inside
I wanna know the feelings you hide
Will you give me my own soul, control?
Tell me how to dream
And tell me what it means
Tell me how to feel
And tell me you believe
Tell me all the things you wanted me to be
Tell me when I'm really alive
Can you feel my love?
Can you feel my love?
(D)eath lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
In my dreams
I awake as daylight breaks and wash my face
Put my bedroom back in its place and tucked away
Write a note of a few things I want to say
And leave it on the fireplace
And in my dreams, another day
In my dreams
I stare out in the distance of the city scene
From way up here, it's so serene
There's nothing said
As I make myself more comfortable with the edge
I leap into the darkest night
Wind on my face, it satisfies
I never have felt so alive
And in my dreams, I fly away
Mad Hatter lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
(from "Call Of Duty: Black Ops 4" soundtrack)
From the manor a cutting whisper
Rising vapors through clocks of gold
Gilding fire unchains the demons
With undercurrents far too strong to hold
The sun burned out today
And fools are dancing in the rain
Scarred by the acid stain
And on the shelf a jar that holds my brain
Nightfall haunts us all from the shadows
Cynical beauty now lights the halls
Before the flicker there was only blackness
The end is coming and all my friends are dead
The sun burned out today
And fools are dancing in the rain
Scarred by the acid stain
And on the shelf a jar that holds my brain
Gripped by an empty world
Suffer the crushing weight
Madness will crawl inside
Alter the sober state
They're feeding all the voices in my head
(Slowly we're bled)
(Slowly we're bled)
(Slowly we're bled)
(Slowly we're bled)
(Slowly we're bled)
The Labyrinth hedges return to soil
Mother's weeping will go unheard
The dove that once flew here through the mazes
Had seen the darkness and chose to take its life
The sun burned out today
And fools are dancing in the rain
Scarred by the acid stain
And on the shelf a jar that holds my brain
Gripped by an empty world
Suffer the crushing weight
Madness will crawl inside
Alter the sober state
They're feeding all the voices in my head
They're feeding all the voices in my head
They're feeding all the voices in my head
They're feeding all the voices in my head
Carry On lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
(from "Call Of Duty: Black Ops II" soundtrack)
Some people live out selfish desires
Some choose to shout when they speak deafening us all
Caught in the flame of those deep in fire
Seeking out those with a voice, one for tomorrow
(They say we've lost our minds
We've just gained control)
Search endlessly, fight 'til we're free
Fly past the edge of the sea
No bended knee, no more decree
Somehow we still carry on
(Fear, fear, fear, fear, fear, fear)
Silence your fear, we've got to move higher
High like the stars in the sky, guiding us all
Battle the will of those who conspire
Take back the passion to live, vanish the sorrow
(Destroy their perfect crime
Watch the power fold)
Search endlessly, fight 'til we're free
Fly past the edge of the sea
No bended knee, no more decree
Somehow we still carry on
Search endlessly, fight 'til we're free
Fly past the edge of the sea
No bended knee, no more decree
Somehow we still carry on
Carry on
Not Ready To Die lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
(from "Call Of The Dead" soundtrack)
Gone, cast away in time
Evil yours, now evil mine
So, I robbed you blind
The voices in my head suggest a less-than-peaceful side
Of endless possibilities controlling nine-three-five
(You can't break me) Crush the fears of yesterday
(You can't save me) Barriers – our trust will fade
I've stood in the dark, been waiting all this time
While we damn the dead I'm trying to survive
I'm not ready to die
Damned, watch the masses fall
Burn it down, control 'em all
(Let 'em bleed) Make me crawl
To daddy's little girl to read the writings on the wall
While cast into the nothingness, the final curtain call
(You can't break me) Crush the fears of yesterday
(You can't save me) Barriers – our trust will fade
I've stood in the dark, been waiting all this time
While we damn the dead I'm trying to survive
I'm not ready to die
Through the madness we find
Loyalty is no match for power
Say goodbye to your life
Left to rot in your darkest hour
Prayers won't help you now
As long as you're mine
(You can't break me) Crush the fears of yesterday
(You can't save me) Barriers – our trust will fade
I've stood in the dark, been waiting all this time
While we damn the dead I'm trying to survive
I'll control the world
One person at a time
As I damn the dead I'm trying to survive
I'm not ready to die
Oh
I'm not ready to die
I'm not ready to die
I'm not ready to die
I'm not ready to die
Ready to die
Ready to die
Ready to die
Not ready to die

The Stage lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
So I arrived, naked and cold
A welcomed change from the abeyance of a ghost town catacomb
No need for counsel, I appreciate the time I'm not alone
(Why don't you get my lawyer on the phone?)
There were days these child eyes
Would overlook the ugliness and fantasize
I found my heart for the first time and I awakened in me
I left myself to navigate... and oh I felt control
(It seems these sheep have quite an appetite)
Who is the crowd that peers through the cage
As we perform here upon the stage?
As the boy became a man
In came a calm sophistication I can hardly understand
So lost in ego, didn't notice when the time had slipped away
(Yeah, everybody's got a sob story)
Jesus Christ was born to die
Leave it to man to levitate his own to idolize
We're simply sociopaths with no communication baby
I see your angle but we differ from our points of view
(So tell me, what's your cross to bear?)
Who is the crowd that peers through the cage
As we perform here upon the stage?
Tell me a lie in a beautiful way
I believe in answers, just not today
Hope my wheels don't abandon me now
Seeing that I'm out here alone
I'm running out of fight
And the wind speaks a comforting voice
Guiding me to her arms
Mother, I'm alright
It took the birth of sin to snake-rattle the mind
Before a blow to the head by the gavel of time
To wake up
Won't you wake up?
When did the walking apes decide that nuclear war
Was the only solution for them keeping the score?
Just wake up
Can't you wake up?
(You do know this is just a simulation, don't you?)
Who is the crowd that peers through the cage
As we perform here upon the stage?
Tell me a lie in a beautiful way
I believe in answers, just not today
Paradigm lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
You've been breaking down for far too long
Far too many moons since you've felt well and strong
You see, you could say goodbye but you don't have to die
Not ever
Engineer the wires to your brain
Architect a code so you won't feel the pain
With your family by your side and vigor in your eyes forever
Live forever
I'm way up, a god in size
Beyond the reach of mortals I shed my human side
Farther, O' Father
I stare at my reflection, have I lost that boy inside?
Final paradigm
What's it really mean to be a man?
Think about your answer but please understand
While it's natural to fear, I'll make it disappear forever
I forever
I'm way up, a god in size
Beyond the reach of mortals I shed my human side
Farther, O' Father
I stare at my reflection, have I lost that boy inside?
Final paradigm
Singular I am
I have to question if these thoughts are mine
To live forever but did something in me die?
I'm clawing my skin but I can't feel it inside
I know the agony of pain would hurt so much better
I'm way up so far up
Have I lost myself tonight?
Father, O' Father
Have you lost that boy you used to know?
Sunny Disposition lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
We've been through hell. Sewn up our eyes
Found fuel in meds. Viewed through the narrow
Encouraged fear when so inclined
Bought peace through wars that doomed our children to die
Ego is sure to fix the world
Served up to happy boys and girls
I'd make a decision if granted the privilege but I'm afraid my taste is unrefined
And no one likes cheap wine
When the clouds kiss your eye
Shadows stain on the high-rise
Raise your thumb to the sky
Fossilize
You own the burg. We sleep in streets
You dine then waste. We forage to eat
Well who pays the tab when you cross the line?
Who writes the check? Who's herding the swine?
Just takes a fence to rule the roost
As long as the scale has been reduced
How can we see outside of the pen when survival has possession of our minds?
Calmly walk the line
When the clouds kiss your eye
Shadows stain on the high-rise
Raise your thumb to the sky
Fossilize
All good things come with time
When you know then you'll know
Such a marvelous find in an illusion
(Vlader Lauder sat in sorrow
For all his teeth had gone
He drank sweet rum
While fingering his gun
And eyeballed a feast
Not one bite he could eat
Somebody cut off his head!)
Dear radiation, my sweet friend
Let agents dance upon my nerves
Let sunlight glow under my skin
Let toxins seep into my soul
When the clouds kiss your eye
Shadows stain on the high-rise
Raise your thumb to the sky
Fossilize
All good things come with time
When you know then you'll know
Such a marvelous time I will find in an illusion
It's an illusion
God Damn lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
Hey! Can't you see we're tripping on the wire
Walking through the candy land of our desires
Press the magic button and behold the world you crave
Where's the fun in freedom when it renders you a slave?
Pledge allegiance, no flag
God nation, god damn
The devil dances with the scorned
And how the fire keeps us warm
Hey! It goes beyond big brother in the sky
Beyond the threat of martial law no Horus eye
No one came to cuff you they just handed you the chains
Blind follows the blind and now the one-eyed man is king
Pledge allegiance, no flag
God nation, god damn
The devil dances with the scorned
And how the fire keeps us warm
Tunnel vision, no man
Damnation, god damn
Can't see the forest for the trees
Can't heal the wound before we bleed
No form of payment, no pot of gold will satisfy the debt of what he's owed
Spilling from the houses in a trance the children lined up on the road
Cursing at the piper as he lured your kids away
And led them to the river for what was their final day
No need for convincing on his pipe he played a song to fool them all
Fooled them all
Pledge allegiance, no flag
God nation, goddamned
The devil dances with the scorn
And now the fire keeps us (keeps us)
Tunnel vision, no man
Damnation, god damn
Can't see the forest for the trees
Can't heal the wound before we bleed
Creating God lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
Standing in the shade of altruism, answering the call
Came a modern messiah to save us all
Something far beyond a work of fiction, positronic brain
A world that's void of all the anguish and suffering, pain
Better tame your convictions before you go and open the cage
We're creating God, master of our designs
We're creating God, unsure of what we'll find
Never held a high regard for Darwin, selection takes too long
A little kick in the pool shouldn't do us wrong
Devouring the very last invention man would ever need
But exponential growth is a frightening thing, indeed
Sweet bohemian jury rounded up and hung in the streets
We're creating God, master of our designs
We're creating God, unsure of what we'll find
Sometimes when I look up to the sky I have to wonder are we
"Summoning the demon" you and I?
Have you noticed that I'm needing it more now, more than it needs me
Got a couple of billion that seem to agree
Surfing in an artificial dimension, but we're not alone
Now the master has become just a steppingstone, oh
Like a blow to the ego the bitter pills are harder to take
We're creating God, master of our designs
We're creating God, unsure of what we'll find
We're creating God, in search of the divine
We're creating God. Committing suicide
Angels lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
Took me years to make my motives clear
And the days have not been kind
Once a steady gaze and charming smile
Has been buried in the lines I find
I walk in the noise, quiet employs
And darkness seems to know just where I am
Mother wash the devil from my hands
Pray the Lord I have the strength to stand
Mother, tell me was it all a lie?
Show me where the angels die
There are words that never found my lips
There are words I'd soon forget
Thought the trick was never to look back
But it seems I've lost my grip, I slip
The faster we run now, the closer the gun now
And somehow all the bullets bear my name
Mother wash the devil from my hands
Pray the Lord I have the strength to stand
Mother, tell me was it all a lie?
Show me where the angels die
Took the road but should have chased the stars
Now I've lost my own way home
Had a photo of the time we shared
But I burned it long ago, I know
I struck all the matches stuck in the ashes
Forgive me, won't you simply speak my name?
Mother wash the devil from my hands
Pray the Lord I have the strength to stand
Mother, tell me was it all a lie?
Show me where the angels die
Die
(The faster we run now, the closer the gun now
And somehow we all found the warmth of the gun now
The faster we run now, the closer the gun now
And somehow we all found the warmth of the gun now
(Took the road but should have chased the stars
Now I've lost my own way home
Had a photo of the time we shared
But I burned it long ago)
The faster we run now, the closer the gun now
And somehow we all found the warmth of the gun now
The faster we run now, the closer the gun now
And somehow we all found the warmth of the gun now
(Took the road but should have chased the stars
Now I've lost my own way home
Had a photo of the time we shared
But I burned it long ago)
The faster we run now, the closer the gun now
And somehow we all found the warmth of the gun now)
Simulation lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
It seems I should have walked away
Reverse the wager I've no means to pay
Toto has pulled back the green tonight, in sight
And blue pills coat with such disdain
I wore the shades for so long
That I've forgotten how to see
The curtain rises but who dares to pull the strings
I know this may be hard for you to believe and all
But you only exist because we allow it
I've questioned all the voices in my head
Are they mine or have I been misled?
Total understanding doesn't seem to mean a thing
When you can't see behind the silver screen, a figurine
Can't you hear me scream?
By the way of cosmic rays
A subtle breakdown jarred the code display
A simulation as I can tell, our cell
Playing out a hopeless scene
We stand to lose all our charm
And faith just seems to wane
A billion years can seem a stunningly short time
You've been beaten down time and time again
But still you find yourself at the center of it all
I've questioned all the voices in my head
Are they mine or have I been misled?
Total understanding doesn't seem to mean a thing
When you can't see behind the silver screen, a figurine
Can't you hear me scream?
You hear me, you had one thing to do, one thing
And you fucked it up, piece of shit
Nurse, patient six-six-six-one-five-eight needs to be sedated
We need 500cc of Blue Comfort
Oh hello there dearie, I've been expecting you
Posturing the way I feel
Is truth only what we believe is real?
Marvel the sketches that paint the night, starlight
And take a breath before it's all erased away
Higher lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
Freed of the world
Shed of the weight
Onward to see you, my friend
Light years above (Take me higher)
Time seems to wait (Take me higher)
Promise to see you again (Higher, high)
It haunts to remember
All the memories of that day
Pre-flight demonstration
Led to desperate voices fueled by flames
Now I'm out here waiting
Hoping you would send a sign
Came a million miles
And the earth grows small as I lovingly leave it behind
Freed of the world
Shed of the weight
Onward to see you, my friend
We seem to have found it
All the hope we've been denied
There's more than we've been told
Had to find it on the other side
Now I must be dreaming
Face against the frozen glass
But there's no return now
And the blazing worlds salute
As we go flying past
Freed of the world
Shed of the weight
Onward to see you, my friend
Light years above (Take me higher)
Time seems to wait (Take me higher)
Promise to see you again (Higher, high)
Freed of the world
Shed of the weight
Onward to see you, my friend
Light years above (Take me higher)
Time seems to wait (Take me higher)
Promise to see you again (Higher, high)
Meet you in the stars tonight
There you find me drifting in the ether within the lull
Meet you in the stars tonight
There you find me drifting in the ether within the lull
Meet you in the stars tonight
There you find me drifting in the ether within the lull
Meet you in the stars tonight
There you find me drifting in the ether within the lull
Roman Sky lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
As the embers rose through the Roman Sky
Tell me, were you calm when they took your life?
Just before you go, tell us how the heavens flow
Weightless evermore, as you walk beyond that door
Shine forever true
Shared with us the world well before your time
Though they took your voice, words forever shine, yeah
Just before you go, tell us how the heavens flow
Weightless evermore, as you walk beyond that door
Shine forever true
As they spoke your fate, a fearless man replied
"As you will sentence me, your fear is beyond mine, yeah"
Just before you go, tell us how the heavens flow
Weightless evermore, as you walk beyond that door
Shine forever true
Fermi Paradox lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
Lights paint the windows in the sky
The past is sown
In pursuit our spirit shown
But for now there's no one home
Heaven works on borrowed time
(Walk alone)
Empty pages burn forever mine
(Walk alone)
Masquerade us upon high
(Walk alone)
All we are is all we've left behind
My sweet Medusa, reflect the empty in our being
Snakes born of fire conjure the demons in our dreams
In void we illustrate our lives
Emerge in small
Heed the sign meant to evolve
To the end we send the call
Heaven works on borrowed time
(Walk alone)
Empty pages burn forever mine
(Walk alone)
Masquerade us upon high
(Walk alone)
All we are is all we've left behind
Where children shiver in the cold
The sun will shine
Just a touch to heal the blind
In ourselves we hope to find
Heaven works on borrowed time
(Walk alone)
Empty pages burn forever mine
(Walk alone)
Masquerade us upon high
(Walk alone)
All we are is all we've left behind
Alone
Exist lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
[M. Shadows:]
Our truth is painted across the sky
In our reflection, we learn to fly
No hand to hold us
No one to save us from tomorrow
Sailing away, beyond the reach of anyone
Far beyond the dreams of everyone
No light to follow
A shot in the dark
Does anybody know?
Sailing away, beyond the reach of anyone
Far beyond the dreams of everyone
High from the heavens
I can't see the pain
Does anybody care?
Think for a moment of all the lives
Stripped of their essence before their time
We stand to conquer
But is there nothing left tomorrow?
I'm sailing away, beyond the reach of anyone
Far beyond the dreams of everyone
There's no light to follow
A shot in the dark
Does anybody know?
Sailing away, beyond the reach of anyone
Far beyond the dreams of everyone
High from the heavens
I can't see the pain
Does anybody care?
[Neil deGrasse Tyson:]
We have one collective hope: The Earth
And yet uncounted people remain hopeless
Famine and calamity abound
Sufferers hurl themselves into the arms of war
People kill and get killed in the name of someone else's concept of God
Dare we admit that our thoughts and behaviors spring from a belief that the world revolves around us?
Each fabricated conflict, self-murdering bomb, vanished airplane
Every fictionalized dictator, biased partisan and wayward son
Are part of the curtains of society's racial, ethnic, religious, national and cultural conflicts
And you find the human ego turning the knobs and pulling the levers
When I track the orbits of asteroids, comets, and planets
Each one a pirouetting dancer in a cosmic ballet, choreographed by the forces of gravity
I see beyond the plight of humans. I see a universe ever-expanding
With its galaxies embedded within the ever-stretching, four-dimensional fabric of space and time
However big our world is — in our hearts, our minds, in our out-sized atlases?
The universe is even bigger
There are more stars in the universe than grains of sand on the world's beaches
More stars in the universe than seconds of time that have passed since Earth formed
More stars than words and sounds ever uttered by all humans who have ever lived
The day we cease the exploration of the cosmos is the day we threaten the continuance of our species
In that bleak world, arms-bearing, resource-hungry people and nations
Would be prone to act on their low contracted prejudices
And would have seen the last gasp of human enlightenment —
Until the rise of a visionary new culture that once again embraces the cosmic perspective
A perspective in which we are one, fitting neither above, nor below, but within
Dose lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
What's the matter dear
Seems the ghost
Is in your stall
For a thousand years
Taured lived within us all
I've come from
Somewhere beyond
Lost in a world
Voyage in time
Shot through the worm
Scaling the vine
Here in '54
Tastes of napalm fill the sky
Axis wins the war
Seems the crop of our divide
I've slipped through
Bodies aligned
Lost in the world
Voyage in time
Shot through the worm
Scaling the vine
All that's me
And all that's you
All that's false
And all that's true
On the sea you sailed away
Another time
You'd surely stay
It's only fabric so it seems
Our intimate reality
We're living simultaneously
While parallel in possibilities
Lost in the world
Voyage in time
Shot through the worm
Scaling the vine
Lost in the world
Voyage in time
Shot through the worm
Scaling the vine
Retrovertigo lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
(originally by Mr Bungle)
Before you advertise
All the fame is implied
With no fortune unseen
Sell the rights
To your blight
Time-machine
While I'm dulled by excess (Dulled by excess)
And a cynic at best (Cynic at the best)
My art imitates crime
Paid for by
The allies
So invest
Now I'm finding truth is a ruin
Nauseous end that nobody is pursuing
Staring into glassy eyes
Mesmerized
There's a vintage thirst returning
But I'm sheltered by my channel-surfing
Every famine virtual
Retrovertigo
A tribute to false memories
With conviction
Cheap imitation
Is it fashion or disease?
Post-ironic
Remains a mouth to feed
Sell the rights
To your plight
And you'll eat
Now I'm finding truth is a ruin
Nauseous end that nobody is pursuing
Staring into glassy eyes
Mesmerized
See the vintage robot wearied
Then awakened by revision theories
Every famine virtual
Retrovertigo
Malagueña Salerosa lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
Qué bonitos ojos tienes
Debajo de esas dos cejas
Debajo de esas dos cejas
Qué bonitos ojos tienes
Ellos me quieren mirar
Pero si tu no los dejas
Pero si tu no los dejas
Ni siquiera parpadear
Malagueña salerosa
Besar tus labios quisiera
Besar tus labios quisiera
Malagueña salerosa
Y decirte niña hermosa
Que eres lin... da y hechicera
Que eres linda y hechicera
Como el candor de una rosa
Si por pobre me desprecias
Yo te concedo razón
Yo te concedo razón
Si por pobre me desprecias
Yo no te ofrezco riquezas
Te ofrezco mi corazón
Te ofrezco mi corazón
A cambio de mi pobreza
Malagueña salerosa
Besar tus labios quisiera
Besar tus labios quisiera
Malagueña salerosa
Y decirte niña hermosa
Que eres lin... da y hechicera
Que eres linda y hechicera
Como el candor de una rosa
Y decirte niña hermosa
Runaway lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold (feat. Warren Fitzgerald)
(originally by Del Shannon)
As I walk along
I wonder what went wrong
With our love, a love that was so strong
And as I still walk on
I think of the things we've done
Together, a-while our hearts were young
I'm a-walkin' in the rain
Tears are fallin' and I feel the pain
Wishin' you were here by me
To end this misery
And I wonder
I wah-wah-wah-wah-wonder
Why
Why, why, why, why, why she ran away
And I wonder
A-where she will stay-ay
My little runaway
Run, run, run, run, runaway
I'm a-walkin' in the rain
Tears are fallin' and I feel the pain
Wishin' you were here by me
To end this misery
And I wonder
I wah-wah-wah-wah-wonder
Why
Why, why, why, why, why she ran away
And I wonder
A-where she will stay-ay
My little runaway
Run, run, run, run, runaway
Run, run, run, run, runaway
Run, run, run, run, runaway
As Tears Go By lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
(originally by The Rolling Stones)
It is the evening of the day
I sit and watch the children play
Smiling faces I can see
But not for me
I sit and watch
As tears go by
My riches can't buy everything
I want to hear the children sing
All I hear is the sound
Of rain falling on the ground
I sit and watch
As tears go by
It is the evening of the day
I sit and watch the children play
Doin' things I used to do
They think are new
I sit and watch
As tears go by
Wish You Were Here lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
(originally by Pink Floyd)
So, so you think you can tell
Heaven from Hell
Blue skies from pain?
Can you tell a green field
From a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?
And did they get you to trade
Your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange
A walk on part in the war
For a lead role in a cage?
How I wish, how I wish you were here
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year
Running over the same old ground
What have we found? The same old fears
Wish you were here
How I wish, how I wish you were here
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year
Running over the same old ground
What have we found? The same old fears
Wish you were here
God Only Knows lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
I may not always love you
But long as there are stars above you
You never need to doubt it
I'll make you so sure about it
God only knows what I'd be without you
If you should ever leave me
Though life would still go on, believe me
The world could show nothing to me
So what good would living do me?
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you
If you should ever leave me
Well life would still go on, believe me
The world could show nothing to me
So what good would living do me?
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows
God only knows what I'd be without you
Shepherd Of Fire lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
Let's take a moment and break the ice
So my intentions are known
See I have pity in watching you suffer
I know the feeling of being damned alone
I've got a storybook of my own
Don't you see I am your pride
Agent of wealth
Bearer of needs?
(And you know it's right)
I am your war
Arming the strong
Aiding the weak
Know me by name
Shepherd of fire
Well I can promise you paradise
No need to serve on your knees
And when you're lost in the darkest of hours
Take a moment and tell me who you see
Won't tell you who not to be
Now you know I am your pride
Agent of wealth
Bearer of needs
(And you know it's right)
I am your war
Arming the strong
Aiding the weak
Know me by name
Shepherd of fire
Disciple of the cross and champion in suffering
Immerse yourself into the kingdom of redemption
Harden your mind through the chains of the divine
Make way the shepherd of fire
Through the ages of time
I've been known for my hate
But I'm a dealer of simple choices
For me it's never too late
I am your pride
Agent of wealth
Bearer of needs
(And you know it's right)
I am your war
Arming the strong
Aiding the weak
I am your wrath
I am your guilt
I am your lust
(And you know it's right)
I am your law
I am your star
I am your trust
Know me by name
Shepherd of fire
Hail To The King lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
Watch your tongue or have it cut from your head
Save your life by keeping whispers unsaid
Children roam the streets, now orphans of war
Bodies hanging in the streets to adore
Royal flames will carve a path in chaos
Bringing daylight to the night (night)
Death is riding into town with armor
They've come to take all your rights
Hail to the king, hail to the one
Kneel to the crown, stand in the sun
Hail to the king
Hail!
Hail!
Hail!
The King...
Blood is spilt while holding keys to the throne
Born again, but it's too late to atone
No mercy from the edge of the blade
Dare escape and learn the price to be paid
Let the water flow with shades of red now
Arrows black out all the light (light)
Death is riding into town with armor
They've come to grant you your rights
Hail to the king, hail to the one
Kneel to the crown, stand in the sun
Hail to the king
Hail!
Hail!
Hail!
The King...
[Solo]
There's a taste of fear (hail, hail, hail)
When the henchmen call (hail, hail, hail)
Iron fist to tame the land (hail, hail, hail)
Iron fist to claim it all
Hail to the king, hail to the one
Kneel to the crown, stand in the sun
Hail to the king, hail to the one
Kneel to the crown, stand in the sun
Hail to the king!
Hail!
Hail!
Hail!
Doing Time lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
The lives of some men
If walls could talk to spill the lies
We'd see the world through devil's eyes
I maintain an addiction
Been known to take it too high
I got an itch with a loaded hair trigger
And a one-way ticket to fly
When there's no writing on the wall
I see the lifeless devils start to crawl
I don't need no lessons
After all
Everybody's doin' their time
Caught your eye in the corner
Don't you look at me wrong
Fucked up and thrown into the gutter gotta fix what don't belong
I see the writing on the wall
I see the lifeless devils start to crawl
And I don't need no lessons
After all
Everybody's doin' their time
That's just the price to play
So tell me what you like
Gotta hand on the kerosene match tonight, right
Had enough of opinions
I got enough on my mind
Sell your soul for approval and a dollar
Got a pretty little body to grind
I see your number on the wall
I see the lifeless devils start to crawl
I don't need no lessons
Watch the fall
You lost my attention
After all
Everybody's doin' their time
Time
This Means War lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
Hide my face again, harbor in the shadows
Feel this weight of sin hammering away
Die - with the guilt of a thousand AWOL soldiers
Die - watch the scythe usher me astray
I can't go on this way
Not as I am today
The ugly side of me is strong
Take aim, a loaded gun.
Pull back on all who run.
A coward's truth inside the wrong.
This means war
This means war
This means war
Lash your tongue of bane
Carry me to nowhere
Mental holocaust
Battle never ends
Lie! Mask the pain
Of a child who's forsaken
Lie! To myself
Praise the new regime
I left me long ago
Reasons you'll never know
No one to miss me when I'm gone
With no more words to say
No argument to stay.
Another post I don't belong
This means war
This means war
This means war
This means war
This means war
No home to call my own
No finding someone new
No one to break the fall
No one to see me through
No name to carry on
No promise for today
No one to hear the call
No tattered flag to raise
Walk the razor's edge
Cut into the madness
Question all you trust
Buy into the fear
I see the man ripping at my soul now
I, I know the man
I know him all too well
There's nothing here for free
Lost who I want to be
My serpent blood can strike so cold
On any given day
I'll take it all away
Another thought I can't control
This means war
This means war
This means war
This means war
This means war
Requiem lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
[Latin:]
Prodigia comploratus
Silens, oro
Regnet exitium.
[English translation:
"Prodigies mourning.
Silently I pray,
'Let destruction reign.'"]
Days of warning
Night brings mourning
My prayers wordless
Heaven is burning down
I walk stricken
Pitch-black vision
Oh, one, save me
Caress my weary eyes
Darkest Lord
Your mercy shall I gain
Strike the match
Engulf the earth in flames, in flames, in flames, in flames
Nature quaking
Prophets aching
I kneel faithful
Damnation cracks the sky
My heart fiction
Superstition
Your grace deathless
Give life to my last breath
Darkest Lord
Your mercy shall I gain
Strike the match
Engulf the earth in flames, in flames, in flames, in flames
Grant them eternal rest, oh Lord
Embrace them into your army of undead
Strike with vengeance those who oppose your will
And lay waste to all those who shall be sent before you
Walk with them and shield them from the blinding light of servitude
And devastate your enemies as they die by your hand.
Amen
[Latin:]
Prodigia comploratus
Silens, oro
Regnet exitium.
Rise from ashes
Violent clashes
My soul, vacant
Cleanse me of all this sin
I stand guilty
I bleed filthy
Born of fire
Savor this final hour
Darkest Lord
Your mercy shall I gain
Strike the match
Engulf the earth in flames, in flames, in flames, in flames
Crimson Day lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
Dark years, brought endless rain,
Out in the cold I lost my way.
But storms won't last, they clear the air,
For something new.
The sun came out and brought you through.
A lifetime full of words to say,
A hope that time will slow the passing day.
I've been wrong times over,
And I've been shamed with no words to find.
But if the sun will rise, bring us tomorrow,
Walk with me, crimson day.
Don't speak, no use for words
Lie in my arms, sleep secure.
I wonder what you're dreaming of, lands rare and far,
A timeless flight to reach the stars.
A lifetime full of words to say,
A hope that time will slow the passing day.
I've been wrong times over,
And I've been shamed, with no words to find.
But if the sun will rise, bring us tomorrow,
Walk with me, crimson day.
I've come so far to meet you here,
To share this life with one I hold so dear.
And I won't speak but what is true,
The world outside created just for you,
It's for you, for you.
I've been wrong times over,
And I've been shamed with no words to find.
But if the sun will rise, bring us tomorrow,
Walk with me crimson day.
Heretic lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
As they search for blood,
All eyes descend on one.
Honest man in chains,
But that don't matter anyway.
My judgement day.
My flesh will feed the demon,
No trial, no case for reason.
I've been chosen to pay with my life.
Mad men define what mad is,
Turning witches and saints to ashes.
Rising masses marching to find heretic blood.
Impose your will on me,
'Til fire sets me free.
The flames of hell burn bright.
My fate decided by their lies.
Final demise.
My flesh will feed the demon,
No trial, no case for reason.
I've been chosen to pay with my life.
Mad men define what mad is,
Turning witches and saints to ashes.
Rising masses marching to find heretic—heretic blood.
Please, don't leave me.
Please, don't leave me like this.
I've walked a fragile line and I've fallen down.
Please, don't leave me.
My flesh will feed the demon now,
No trial, no case for reason.
I've been chosen to pay with my life.
Mad men define what mad is,
Turning witches and saints to ashes.
Rising masses marching to find heretic—heretic blood.
Coming Home lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
I've been away,
Searching for a reason,
Another purpose to find.
I've sailed the seas,
Fought my many demons,
I've looked to gods in the skies.
I've stood in hell,
Where many had to suffer,
I stared the devil in the eyes.
Walked many roads to witness ancient idols,
And found the great gates of fire.
Had many storms question my conviction,
Gave armies reason to rise.
The hangman's searching for bones he can borrow,
While I escaped in the night,
Fight or flight.
[Chorus:]
Live again,
All roads end,
I'll be coming home.
Tend your light,
'Cause on this night,
I'll be coming home.
Escaped the hail of calculated mortars,
Then drank the blood of a king.
The desert rain has washed away direction,
Had angels looking after me,
So it seems.
[Chorus]
Live again,
All roads end,
I'll be coming home.
Tend your light,
'Cause on this night,
I'll be coming home.
[Guitar solo]
My story ends not far from where it started,
My weary limbs have grown old.
I've seen the world through the eyes of a nomad,
Home is where the heart is I've been told,
So I go.
[Chorus]
Live again,
All roads end,
I'll be coming home.
Tend your light,
Cause on this night,
I'll be coming home.
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
[Guitar fades out]
Planets lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
Godless - meteoric war,
Anger – our existence nevermore.
You awoke the giants who were dormant in the sky,
Comets raining death from a fiery eye.
[Chorus:]
Mother of all, your time is coming,
One with eternity.
When planets collide,
Planets collide.
Damage – galaxy destruct,
Endless - celestial orbit corrupt.
You will be forgotten like the others lost in time,
Dead civilization left behind.
[Chorus]
Take heed, the violent march is closing in,
You can't defeat them on your own.
Weapons are loaded for the final stand,
And they're all aimed at you from heaven!
Planets collide.
Planets collide.
Planets collide.
Planets collide.
You will be forgotten like the others lost in time,
Dead civilization left behind.
[Chorus]
Acid Rain lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
Our day has come
It's drawn in the sky
So don't shed a tear now
Be thankful for the time
Life wouldn't be so precious dear
If there never was an end
Children still play in the garden
Dance as the sun slips away
We stand on the edge now
We've come so far
And through all the dust it becomes clear
You will always be my heart
There's no death, no end of time
When I'm facing it with you
Children still play in the garden
Dance as the sun slips away
Not even stars last forever
Cleanse us, Acid Rain
Stand near to me, don't look, be brave
Over the blackened moon
I'm carrying you away
Through the planets we fly
Children still play in the garden
Dance as the sun slips away
Not even stars last forever
Cleanse us, Acid Rain
Send us home
Send us home
Send us home
Send us home
St. James lyrics - Avenged Sevenfold
This is the story of a man
Who conquered life drink in hand
Ship unmanned
Marked by genius, channelled good
By some a bit misunderstood
They'd been wrong many times before
Some times our saints are sinners
They blur the lines and lead the way
Their way
Raise hell and a glass in reverence
The fearless lives of our great saints – our saints
Never a stranger to late night snake
Bite fist fights and empty pints
Unrivaled heights
He led with songs, they sang along
Created bonds that held so strong
Some were right and some were wrong
Some times our saints are sinners
They blur the lines and lead the way
Their way
Raise hell and a glass in reverence
The fearless lives of our great saints – our saints
It's by the sea and at night's end that's when the sin and swill begin
That's when he had that certain light inside his head
For every whisper he would scream for every draught he shared a drink
For every sorrow there is a light from our St. James
On the sea by the cliffs he watches, he waits the night to see
The day – his way
Last call will find us all
But there's a light that leads the way, our way
Some times our saints are sinners
They blur the lines and lead the way
Their way
Raise hell and a glass in reverence
The fearless lives of our great saints – our saints
