Avenged Sevenfold - Nightmare

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
http://www.elyricsworld.com/nightmare_lyrics_avenged_sevenfold.html
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

Take the time just to listen

Real as ever

And it seems I've been buried alive!

I walk the fields through the fire

Taking steps until I found solid ground

C Fm
House full of roses, a letter on the stairs
C Fm
A tape full of messages for anyone who cares
Bb Ab
Collage of broken words, and stories full of tears,
Bb Ab
Remembering your life, 'cause we wish that you were here
C Fm
Nothing is harder than to wake up all alone,
C Fm
Realize it's not OK, it's the end of all you've known
Bb Ab
Time keeps passing by, but it seems I'm frozen still,
Bb Ab
Scars are left behind, but some too deep to feel

Cm
And some say this can't be real,
Fm Bb
And I've lost my power to feel tonight
Eb G
We're all just victims of a crime
Cm
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

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

Under my skin

Avenged Sevenfold - Welcome To The Family

Hey kid (hey kid)
Do I have your attention?
I know the way I'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 unsure
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

Here for you and all mankind
I've lost my mind
Psychotic round in dementia
I won't be fine

I see, your escape has been dethrone
Cast out in a world you'll never know
Stand there, place your weapons by your side
It's a 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...
I lost my

Avenged Sevenfold - Danger Line

My 16 locked and loaded
All fear has been aborted
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 out of either side

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 unevaded
They may take me but never take us all.

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
And hope

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 cared
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
We're not alone
Don't leave this light on for me
I'm free

Avenged Sevenfold - 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 a room to breathe
Pool of 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
Mother cries (tortured voices as we crawl)
Find me on my better days
To lost it 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
Mother cries (tortured voices as we crawl)
Find me on my better days
To lost it once again, in a way
But I seem to find better ways to consciously pretend
Silence, all I want to say
Seems to run away
I’ll run away with you tonight
courtesy OriginaLyric.Info
Launder all my sins away
And just like that mistakes are made
You know, tonight the world dies
Mother cries (tortured voices as we crawl)
Find me on my better days
To lost it once again
But I seem to find better ways to consciously pretend
