Avenged Sevenfold
"Nightmare"

Nightmare!
(Now your nightmare comes to life)

Dragged ya 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,
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
It's your fuckin' nightmare
(While your nightmare comes to life)

Can't wake up and 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
Whera hate don't need a reason
(Loathing self-assassination)

You've been lied to just to rape you of your site
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
It's your fuckin' nightmare

Fight
Not to fail
Not to fall
Or you'll end up like the others
Die
Die again
Drenched in sin
With no respect for another
Down
Feel the fire
Feel the hate
Your pain is what we desire
Lost
Hit the wall
Watch you 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
It's your fuckin' nightmare
