Nightmare

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 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

Ooh

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 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

Ooh

it's your fucking nightmare

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

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

Ooh

it's your fucking nightmare
