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 endeavour
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
(Chorus 1)
You should have known the price of evil
And it hurts to know that you belong here.
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 as they tell you:
"Given with the best intentions, help you with your complications"
(Chorus 2)
You should have known the price of evil
And it hurts to know that you belong here
No one to call, everybody to fear!
Your tragic fate is looking so clear
It's your fucking nightmare!
Fight, fight!
Not to fail, fail!
Not to fail, fail!
Or you'll end up like the others
Die, die!
Die again, die!
Drenched in sin, sin!
With no respect for another!
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
(Chorus 2)
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 endeavour
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
(Chorus 1)
You should have known the price of evil
And it hurts to know that you belong here.
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
