NIGHTMARE
Nightmare
Now your nightmare comes to life.
Dragged you down below
Down to the devils 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
Your 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
Oooooooh
It’s your fucking nightmare
While your nightmare comes to life
Can’t wake up in sweat
Cause it ain’t over yet
Still dancing 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
Oooooooh
It’s your fucking nightmare
AFTERLIFE
Like walking into a dream
So unlike what you've seen
So unsure but it seems
'Cause we?ve been waiting for you
Fallen into this place
Just giving you a small taste
Of your afterlife here so stay
You'll be back here soon anyway
I see a distant light
But girl, this can't be right
Such a surreal place to see
So how did this come to be, arrived too early?
And when I think of all the places
I just don't belong
I've come to grips with life
And realize this is going too far
I don't belong here, we gotta move on, dear
Escape from this afterlife
?Cause this time I'm right to move on and on
Far away from here
A place of hope and no pain
Perfect skies with no rain
Can leave this place but refrain
'Cause we've been waiting for you
Fallen into this place
Just giving you a small taste
Of your afterlife here so stay
You'll be back here soon anyway
This peace on earth's not right
(With my back against the wall)
No pain or sign of time
(I?m much too young to fall)
So out of place don't wanna stay
[- From :http://www.elyrics.net/read/a/avenged-sevenfold-lyrics/afterlife-lyrics.html -]
I feel wrong and that's my sign
I've made up my mind
Give me your hand
But realize I just wanna say goodbye
Please understand I have to leave
And carry on my own life
I don't belong here, I gotta move on, dear
Escape from this afterlife
?Cause this time I'm right to move on and on
Far away from here
Got nothing against you
And surely I'll miss you
This place full of peace and light
And I?d hope you might
Take me back inside when the time is right
Loved ones back home all crying
'Cause they're already missing me
I pray by the grace of God
That there's somebody listening
Give me a chance to be that person I wanna be
(I am unbroken, I?m choking on this ecstasy)
Oh Lord, I'll try so hard but You gotta let go of me
(Unbreak me, unchain me, I need another chance to live)
I don't belong here, I gotta move on, dear
Escape from this afterlife
?Cause this time I'm right to move on and on
Far away from here
Got nothing against you
And surely I'll miss you
This place full of peace and light
And I?d hope you might
Take me back inside when the time is right
UNHOLY CONFESSIONS
"I'll try," she said as she walked away, "Try not to los you."
Two vibrante hearts could change
Nothin' tears the being more than deception,
Unmasked fear
I'll be here waiting, tested and secure
Nothing hurts my world,
Just effects the ones around me,
When sin's deep in my blood,
You'll be the one to fall!
I wish I could be the one,
The one who won't care at all,
But being the one on the stand,
I know the way to go, No one's guiding me.
When time soaked with blood turns it's back,
I know it's hard to fall,
Confided in me was your heart,
I know it's hurting you, but it's killing me
Nothing will last in this life,
Our time is spent constructing,
Now you're perfecting a world... meant to sin,
Constrict your hands around me,
Squeeze till I cannot breathe,
[ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/unholy-confessions-lyrics-avenged-sevenfold.html ]
This air tastes dead inside me,
Contribute to our plague,
Break all your promises,
Tear down this steadfast wall,
Restraints are useless here,
Tasting salvation's near!
*screaming*
Nothing hurts my world,
Just effects the ones around me,
When sin's deep in my blood,
You'll be the one to fall!
I wish I could be the one,
The one who won't care at all,
But being the one on the stand,
I know the way to go,
No one's guiding me,
When time soaked with blood turns it's back,
I know it's hard to fall,
Confided in me was your heart,
I know it's hurting you, but it's killing me
