God Hates Us
Avenged Sevenfold · Nightmare [2010]
TOTAL NIGHTMARE!
TOTAL NIGHTMARE!
You wanna hear my side?
Ya need to drown to know.
When all the times it hurt me to fuck you,
I built a wall with your blood to show!
GOD SAVE US!
GOD SAVE US ALL!
GOD HATES US!
GOD HATES US ALL!
TOTAL NIGHTMARE!
TOTAL NIGHTMARE!
Nothing to heal.
No one to break.
Pills had a role now there's nothing to take.
Nothing to trust.
No one to fake.
You'll find out sooner that it's best if we just know our place.
(LIES!)
My infiltrated mind.
My lacerated soul.
It took me years, create me, control you.
I left myself for an idea I stole.
GOD SAVE US!
GOD SAVE US ALL!
GOD HATES US!
GOD HATES US ALL!
TOTAL NIGHTMARE!
TOTAL NIGHTMARE!
LIE RAPE KILL, LOVE HATE FEAR
You better take your time
(LIE RAPE KILL)
You better take it slow
Cause when you seek the one
(LOVE HATE FEAR)
Nothing left to show.
