yeahhhhhh......
I've been thinking lots about my life and
How quick I'd wash it down the drain
Past tense the future, nothing matters now
I act on my own and I'm to blame
Live in a wicked dream, with angst turned out all wrong
Were all so weak, no matter how strong, yeah
[Chorus:]
I tried running away from me
Convince me that I've grown, but I can't
She's so unnaturally, Demons they follow me
I quit running away from me
Convinced that I have grown, but found out
All my reasons for obscenity, all a part of me
I don't like that you're calling me a liar
I don't like that you found out I'm a snake
Been sneaking around for far too long now
I don't like how fast my intentions fade
Karma has beat me down, but the worst is yet to come
Many mistakes and still I'm so young, yeah
[Chorus:]
I tried running away from me
Convince me that I've grown, but I can't
She's so unnaturally, Demons they follow me
I quit running away from me
Convinced that I have grown, but found out
All my reasons for obscenity, all a part of me
I can't
Count how many times
Awakened in fear, nightly
I'm sweating
Dreams
Where promises are made
To no one but myself
Help him
Crushed daily
Don't lend me your hand
I can't trust my self
So how can you trust me
We've all made selfish, bad decisions
We've all tried dishing out the blame
Convinced our selves of our own actions
My problem is I'll never change
In doubt, some good comes out
I'll fold before its time
Can't promise you that its my last time, yeah
[Chorus:]
I tried running away from me
Convince me that I've grown, but I can't
She's so unnaturally, Demons they follow me
I quit running away from me
Convinced that I have grown, but found out
All my reasons for obscenity, all a part of me
Truth won't help you now
All the loves gone too far
Truth won't help you now
All the loves gone too far
I'm scarred, yeah
Demons they follow me, 'cause my insanity
I'm scarred, yeah
Demons they follow me, 'cause my insanity
I'm scarred, yeah
Demons they follow me, 'cause my insanity
I'm scarred, yeah
Demons they follow me, 'cause my insanity

M.I.A lyric
Staring at the carnage, praying that the sun will never rise.
Living another day in disguise.
These feelings cant be right,
lend me your courage to stand up and fight, on tonight.
Ooooo....
Stand up and fight.
Now fighting rages on and on, to challenge me you must be strong.
I'll walk your land but don't be long,
two million soldiers cant be wrong.
Its no fun but I've been here before.
I'm far from home and I'm fighting your war.
(Not the way I pictured this, I wanted better things)
Some are scared others killing for fun,
I shot a mother in front of her son.
(Change this from my consciousness and please erase my dreams)
Fight for honor, fight for your life.
Pray to god that our side is right.
You know we won but still we lose,
until I make it home to you.
I see your mother still in tears we grew up
so fast where did those years go.
Memories wont let you cry unless I don't return tonight.
So many soldiers on the other side,
I take their live so they can't take mine.
(Scared to make it out alive now murders all I know.)
Nobody tells me all the reasons were here,
I am a weapon so there's nothing to fear.
(Another day another life but nothing real to show for.)
Fight for honor, fight for your life.
Pray to god that our side is right.
You know we won but still we lose,
until I make it home to you.
I see your mother still in tears we grew up
so fast where did those years go.
Memories wont let you cry unless I don't return tonight.
Staring at the carnage, praying that the sun will never rise.
Living another day in disguise.
These feelings cant be right,
lend me your courage to stand up and fight.
Watching the death toll rise wondering how I'm alive.
Strangers blood on my hands, showed all I can.
There were no sunny nights watching your brothers all die
To destroy all their plans with no thought of me.
(No thought of me)
No thought of me.
Ohhhhh.....
We'll walk the city lonely, memories that are not passing by.
A murderer walks your streets tonight.
Forgive me for my crimes.
Don't forget that I was so young, but so scared.
In the name of God and Country.
Living another day in disguise.
These feelings cant be right,
lend me your courage to stand up and fight, on tonight.
Ooooo....
Stand up and fight.
Now fighting rages on and on, to challenge me you must be strong.
I'll walk your land but don't be long,
two million soldiers cant be wrong.
Its no fun but I've been here before.
I'm far from home and I'm fighting your war.
(Not the way I pictured this, I wanted better things)

I shot a mother in front of her son.
(Change this from my consciousness and please erase my dreams)
Fight for honor, fight for your life.
Pray to god that our side is right.
You know we won but still we lose,

nightmare lyric
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

Album terbaru Avenged Sevenfold - Nightmare
Album tersebut didedikasi kan kepada The Rev.Yang menjadi sorotan adalah lagu berjudul “Fiction” (judul yang diberikan oleh The Rev sendiri) dan lagu pertama berjudul “Death”, itu adalah lagu terakhir yang dia tulis dan saat menyerahkan lagu tersebut dia mengatakan “Itu saja” dan itu merupakan lagu terakhir untuk proses rekaman ini. Tiga hari kemudian dia meninggal. Sebagian besar lagu sudah selesai di mixing oleh Andy Wallace.
“The new album, “Nightmare,” is dedicated to his memory and although it’s not exactly a concept album, it does center around The Rev. The eeriest thing about it is there is a song on the album called “Fiction” (a nickname The Rev gave himself) which started out with the title “Death.” And the song was the last song The Rev wrote for the album, and when he handed it in, he said, that’s it, that’s the last song for this record. And then 3 days later, he died. The guys have been in town mixing the album and are almost half completed with Andy Wallace. Meanwhile, watch for a video interview with Matt on our website, coming soon”
