Waking the Fallen [2003]

2. Unholy Confessions 4:43
i'll try, she said as he walked away.
try not to lose you.
two vibrant hearts could change.
nothing tears the being more than deception,
unmasked fear.
i'll be here waiting tested but secure.
Nothing hurts my world,
just affects the ones around me
when sin's deep in my blood,
you'll be the one to fall.
i wish i could be the one,
the one who won't care at all
but being the one on the stand,
i know the way to go, no one's guiding me.
when time soaked with blood turns its back,
i know it's hard to fall.
confined in me was your heart
i know it's hurting you, but it's killing me.
Nothing will last in this life,
our time is spent constructing,
now you're perfecting a world... meant to sin.
constrict your hands around me,
squeeze till i cannot breathe,
this air tastes dead inside me,
contribute to our plague.
break all your promises,
tear down this steadfast wall,
restraints are useless here,
tasting salvation's near

Avenged Sevenfold [2007]

3. "Scream" – 4:48
Caught up in this madness too blind to see Woke animal feelings in me Took over my sense and I lost control I'll taste your blood tonight 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 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 You know I make you wanna scream You know I make you wanna run from me baby but know it's too late you've wasted all your time Cherishing, those feelings pleasuring Cover me, unwanted clemency Scream till there's silence Scream while there's life left, vanishing Scream from the pleasure unmask your desire perishing We've all had a time where we've lost control We've all had our time to grow I'm hoping I'm wrong but I know I'm right I'll hunt again one night You know I make you wanna scream You know I make you wanna run from me baby but know it's too late you've wasted all your time Cherishing, those feelings pleasuring Cover me, unwanted clemency Scream till there's silence Scream while there's life left, vanishing Scream from the pleasure unmask your desire perishing Some live repressing their instinctive feelings Protest the way we're built don't point the blame on me Scream, Scream, Scream the way you would if I ravaged your body Scream, Scream, Scream the way you would if I ravaged your mind Cherishing, those feelings pleasuring Cover me, unwanted clemency Scream till there's silence Scream while there's life left, vanishing Scream from the pleasure unmask your desire perishing

4. "Afterlife" – 5:51
Like walking into a dream, so unlike what you've seen So unsure but it seems, cause we’ve been waiting for you Fallen into this place, giving you a small taste Of your afterlife here so stay, you'll be back here soon anyway I see a distant light, but girl this can't be right Such a surreal place to see so how did this come to be Arrived too early And when I think of all the places I just don't belong I've come to grips with life and realize this is going too far 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 A place of hope and no pain, perfect skies with no rain Can leave this place but refrain, cause we've been waiting for you Fallen into this place, just giving you a small taste Of your afterlife here so stay, you'll be back here soon anyway This peace on earth's not right (with my back against the wall) No pain or sign of time (I’m much too young to fall) So out of place don't wanna stay, I feel wrong and that's my sign I've made up my mind Gave me your hand but realize I just wanna say goodbye Please understand I have to leave and carry on my own life I don't belong here, I gotta move on dear escape from this afterlife Cause this time I'm right to move on and on, far away from here Got nothing against you and surely I'll miss you This place full of peace and light, and I’d hope you might Take me back inside when the time is right Loved ones back home all crying cause they're already missing me I pray by the grace of God that there's somebody listening Give me a chance to be that person I wanna be (I am unbroken; I’m choking on this ecstasy) Oh Lord I'll try so hard but you gotta let go of me (Unbreak me, unchain me, I need another chance to live) (Guitar solo) I don't belong here, I gotta move on dear escape from this afterlife Cause this time I'm right to move on and on, far away from here Got nothing against you and surely I'll miss you This place full of peace and light, and I’d hope you might Take me back inside when the time is right

10. "Dear God" (con Shanna Crooks) – 6:33
A lonely road, crossed another cold state line
Miles away from those I love
Purpose hard to find
While I recall all the words you spoke to me
Can't help but wish that I was there
Back where I'd love to be, oh yeah

Dear God the only thing I ask of you
Is to hold her when I'm not around
When I'm much too far away
We all need that person who can be true to you
But I left her when I found her
And now I wish I'd stayed
'Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired
I'm missing you again, oh no
Once again

There's nothing here for me on this barren road
There's no one here while the city sleeps
And all the shops are closed
Can't help but think of the times I've had with you
Pictures and some memories will have to help me through, oh yeah

Dear God the only thing I ask of you is
To hold her when I'm not around,
When I'm much too far away
We all need that person who can be true to you
I left her when I found her
And now I wish I'd stayed
'Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired
I'm missing you again oh no
Once again

Some search, never finding a way
Before long, they waste away
I found you, something told me to stay
I gave in, to selfish ways
And how I miss someone to hold
When hope begins to fade...

A lonely road, crossed another cold state line
Miles away from those I love
Hope is hard to find

Dear God the only thing I ask of you is
To hold her when I'm not around,
When I'm much too far away
We all need the person who can be true to you
I left her when I found her
And now I wish I'd stayed
'Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired
I'm missing you again oh no
Once again
