Avenged Sevenfold - Unholly Confession

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 and 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.

Beast and the harlotte - Avenged Sevenfold

This shining city built of gold, a far cry from innocence

There's more than meets the eye round here
look to the waters of the deep.
A city of evil
There sat a seven-headed beast, ten horns raised from his head
Symbolic woman sits on his thrown
but hatred strips her and leaves her naked.
The Beast and the Harlot.

She's a dwelling place for demons,
she's a cage for every unclean spirit every filthy bird
And makes us drink the poisoned wine to fornicating with our kings.
Fallen now is Babylon the Great.

The city dressed in jewels and gold, fine linen, Myrrh and pearls
Her plagues will come all at once as her mourners watch her burn.
Destroyed in an hour
Merchants and captains of the world, sailors navigators too
Will weep and mourn this loss with her sins piled to the sky
The Beast and the Harlot.

The day has come for all us sinners,
if your not a servant you'll be struck to the ground.
Flee the burning, greedy city looking back
on her to see there's nothin' around.
I don't believe in fairytales and no one wants to go to Hell,
but we made the wrong decision
And it's easy to see.
Now if you wanna serve above or be a king below with us your
Welcome to the city where your future is set forever.

Almost Easy - Avenged Sevenfold

I feel insane every single time I'm asked to compromise

‘Cause I'm afraid and stuck in my ways and that’s the way it stays
So how long did I expect love to outweigh ignorance?
By that look on your face I may have forced the scale to tip

I'm not insane, I'm not insane
I'm not insane, I’m not... not insane
(Mother)
Come back to me it's almost easy
(Said it all)
Come back again it's almost easy

Shame pulses through my heart from the things I've done to you
It's hard to face but the fact remains that this is nothing new
I left you bound and tied with suicidal memories
Selfish beneath the skin but deep inside I'm not insane

I'm not insane, I'm not insane
I'm not insane, I’m not... not insane

(Mother)
Come back to me it's almost easy
(Said it all)
Come back again it's almost easy
(You learned your lesson)
Come back to me it's almost easy
(But first you fall)
Come back again it's almost easy

(guitar solo)

Now that I've lost you it kills me to say
(Hurts to say)
I've tried to hold on as you've slowly slipped away
I'm losing the fight, I've treated you so wrong now let me make it right

(Make it alright)

I'm not insane, I'm not insane(evil laugh)
I'm not insane, I’m not... not insane
(Mother)
Come back to me it's almost easy
(Said it all)
Come back again it's almost easy
(You learned your lesson)
Come back to me it's almost easy
(But still you fall)

Come back again it's almost easy
