AVENGED SEVENFOLD - We Come Out At Night

"We Come Out At Night"

Black and gray clouds willow in the balance as the sun falls.
Rain plays a heart warming tune, on the pavement.
Emotions stir.
A feeling of warmness, compassion, I feel at home.
Disguised by surroundings.
As the torn and left in the gutter seek vengeance on their mistreated lives.
As the torn and left in the cold, seek vengeance on mistreated lives.
As the torn and left in the cold, seek vengeance on mistreated lives.

A silhouette stands still.
A cactus on a warm summer night.
But the rain falls cold 
and the moon shines bright.

Black as night.
Cold as ice.
Warm as home.
Ready to live.
Stars they shoot.
In a clear.
Across the sky.
As does my time.
Waiting, wanting, feeling, emotion.
Crying, breaking, loving, nothing.

Clouds swallow the moon, and I'm alone,
thinking good times, and why'd they go?

Breaking down, breaking away from me.
Falling down, breaking away from me.
Fuck. 

I need this place to get away from you.

Clouds swallow the moon, and I'm alone,
thinking good times, and why'd they go?

AVENGED SEVENFOLD - The Art Of Subconscious Illusion

"The Art Of Subconscious Illusion"

A living nightmare, asleep but still aware.
The endless torture.
The painless pleasure.
I grasp myself.
Trying to regain control.
I experience and learn.
In another faction of my mind.
So confused.
But everything makes perfect sense.
Can't feel the pain.
Emotional pain's so much deadlier.
Lost, you've just been raped.
Pain. Your friends can't help you.
Why won't they help you? Another reality.

This can't be happening.
Why is this happening?
Who the fuck are you?
Who the fuck. Are you?

Trying hard to figure out what's done.
I scramble but now I run.
The images in my head.
All the problems that I've been fed.

Punching slowly my mind can't change the speed.
As my victims bleed.
No matter what I do or how hard I try.
I can't use my abilities.
Use my abilities.
Use my abilities.

Art of Illusion.

My razor sharp knife's edge, pierces my victim's body.
But I cannot take their soul.
Punching through jello, stabbing not killing.
Disappointment. Discomfort.

My razor sharp knife's edge, pierces my victim's body.
But I can't take their soul.
Punching through jello, stabbing not killing.
Disappointment. Discomfort.

AVENGED SEVENFOLD - Darkness Surrounding

"Darkness Surrounding"

Darkness coats us.
The smell of fall.
Changing season.

The graveyard is alive, black cat across my path,
the chill of cold wind, the breath of the dead.

Imprisoned souls.
Trapped for eternity.

Black crows break the silence.
The garden of the dead's alive tonight and you can't stop it.
Just enjoy it.

Open up your mind and you will feel it too.
The sound, the touch, the thoughts, that you've been so blind to.

You can feel the thoughts of the dead.
Feeling the thoughts of the dead.
True or false, it's still there, teaching me.
True or false, still there, teaching me.

You can feel it tonight.
The wood has rotted away.
Take the time absorb it.
Their time is slipping away.
Stone all carved by hand.
Statues that resemble their faces.
They still breathe.
Come join us.

Smell the burning embers, time flickering away.
Timeless but soon gone.
Timeless but soon gone. 
[x3] 

And I can find myself, alone with just my thoughts.
As time crumbles away.
Time crumbles away.

Smell the burning embers, time flickering away.
Timeless but soon gone.
Timeless but soon gone.

And I can find myself, alone with just my thoughts.
As time crumbles away.
Time crumbles away.

AVENGED SEVENFOLD - Turn The Other Way

"Turn The Other Way"

Slit my wrists, take away the pain.
Slit my throat, there's no one to blame.
Lost in the fields of confusion.
Restless nights, they're not far away.
Away, what.

I came here for something and I'm not turning back.
Strong piece of mind but you still hold my keys.
Keeping my fate deep within your threshold.
Petty inconvenience but it means the world to me.

You hold the power.
To set me free.
Caught in your grasp, how?
Just let me be.
Give me control out.
Out of these depths.
A fiery hell.
I pray for death.

I've been the wrong one time and time again.
Now I'm on my knees forgive me please.
Tore out my heart, handed to me on a silver platter.
Sew up the hole, emptiness in the place of compassion.

You made me this way.
I am the product of your creation.
Sew up the hole, right now,
Now you turn the other way.

You've turned away from me, 
The future's much to far away to see.
I hope you learn the truth,
not the way things were meant to be with me and you.

AVENGED SEVENFOLD - To End The Rapture

"To End The Rapture"

The wind of life and air from above smells of death.
Angels sing of the end.
There's nothing you say and nothing you try can change time.
Human race prepares to die...
