Can’t you feel the poison rising out of the morning and clear through the night? You can feel my strength, destroy you straight to the heart from the venomous bite.
-Avenged Sevenfold, Sidewinder

Voice your prophecy, shed us some light. Feel sorrow for mankind’s chance to survive. Swallowed lies and swam in our own tears. A stab in the dark but it wounded our will. We won’t be here tomorrow, hold on to me for one last time.
-Avenged Sevenfold, The Wicked End

Man’s becoming more corrupt now – godless, wicked, and cruel. The soulless man stood silenced, Mary’s words rang so true. Chastisement worse than the flood, spread the word, it’s all through.
-Avenged Sevenfold, The Wicked End

I’ve seen my family fade away. You’ve taken my whole life. There’s nothing left to say.
-Avenged Sevenfold, Strength Of The World

Strength of the world is on my shoulders. Strength of the world is on my side. Strength of the world – the one true beholder. Ice in my veins for those who’ve died.
-Avenged Sevenfold, Strength Of The World

Sitting in silence with heaven above me, I prayed every night by their graves. While I search for closure I feel it no longer. I can’t turn my cheek away. I stand before you; I’ll sin when I have to. But now, I leave your side to avenge my family’s pride.
-Avenged Sevenfold, Strength Of The World

I feel it burn inside, burn in me like the rising sun. Lifted into the sky, took away the only thing I loved. I know after tonight, all your power crumbles in my arms. So don’t worry, I’ll be fine. When my life ends, I’ll leave this scar.
-Avenged Sevenfold, Betrayed

Don’t live your life in vain; don’t take it out on me. You’re cracked, so just remember, I’m not your enemy. I don’t deserve to fall this way, by a man who felt betrayed.
-Avenged Sevenfold, Betrayed

Sometimes, problems seem too deep to take. Sometimes, I cry thinking my future looks so bleak.
-Avenged Sevenfold, Betrayed

Fight for honor, fight for your life. Pray to God that our side is right. Even though we won, I still may lose until I make it home to you.
-Avenged Sevenfold, M.I.A.

Walk the city lonely, memories that haunt are passing by. A murderer walks your street tonight. Forgive me for my crimes; don’t forget that I was so young. Fought so scared in the name of God and country.
-Avenged Sevenfold, M.I.A.

I’ve had enough. It’s time for something real. I don’t respect the words you’re speaking. Gone too far, a clone.
-Avenged Sevenfold, Critical Acclaim

Well, where I’m from we have a special salute that we aim high in the air, towards all those pompous assholes who spend their days pointing fingers.
-Avenged Sevenfold, Critical Acclaim

Sshhh… Quiet, you might piss somebody off like me, motherfucker. You’ve been at it for too long while you feed off others’ insecurities. You stand in front of me and bite the hand that feeds.
-Avenged Sevenfold, Critical Acclaim

So how long did I expect love to outweigh ignorance? By that look on your face, I may have forced the scale to tip.
-Avenged Sevenfold, Almost Easy

I left you bound and tied with suicidal memories. Selfish beneath the skin, but deep inside I’m not insane.
-Avenged Sevenfold, Almost Easy

Relax while you’re closing your eyes to me; so warm as I’m setting you free. With your arms by your side, there’s no struggling. Pleasure’s all mine this time.
-Avenged Sevenfold, Scream

You know, I make you wanna scream. You know, I make you wanna run from me, baby. But now it’s too late, you’ve wasted all your time.
-Avenged Sevenfold, Scream

I don’t belong here. We gotta move on dear, escape from this afterlife. ‘Cause this time I’m right to move on and on, far away from here.
-Avenged Sevenfold, Afterlife

Gave me your hand but realize I just wanna say goodbye. Please understand I have to leave and carry on my own life.
-Avenged Sevenfold, Afterlife

Got nothing against you and surely I’ll miss you. This place full of peace and light, and I’d hoped you might take me back inside, when the time is right.
-Avenged Sevenfold, Afterlife

Yeah, you’ve been alone. I’ve been gone for far too long. But with all that we’ve been through, after all this time, I’m coming home to you.
-Avenged Sevenfold, Gunslinger

I’ve always been true. I’ve waited so long just to come hold you. I’m making it through. It’s been far too long, we’ve proven our love over time’s so strong, in all that we do. The stars in the night, they lend me their light to bring me closer to heaven with you
-Avenged Sevenfold, Gunslinger

This ride that takes me through life leads me into darkness but emerges into light. No one can ever slow me down. I’ll stay unbound.
-Avenged Sevenfold, Unbound (The Wild Ride)
