AVENGED SEVENFOLD

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
