Eternal Rest
Avenged Sevenfold · Saw IV (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) [2007]
Cut through my heart with no regret or sign of life
They tear apart my pride and cold runs through my veins
I feel their stare from miles, haunting every step
And they won't stop hunting me down
I know the time will come
When all around me's burned and you'll still see me there
Asking where you went to and what person brought you here
And why you left the burning children cold out in the night
And calling for you all alone
Dark in their hearts
I can feel it burn inside of me
Tormented young with no souls, haunting me
Pain in their lives all they know is misery
Take these chains away that are holding me down
They'll find you alone
And your desperate and villainous ways
Turning their hearts into stone
They seek more than vengeance
Look in their eyes
Feel pain and feel satisfaction
Look in through their eyes to see
There is no distinct hope
(We revolt)
Life concerned by faith
(We revolt)
Dine on pure fury
(We revolt)
No sign of fair chance
(We revolt)
Burn for the rest of time
Hear the haunting words
(They'll find you alone)
Lost children with no heart are crying
(Turning your hearts to stone)
And you're the lost mother they're calling
Go now run and hide
I hear them crying at night
(Their pain is your statisfaction)
Outside when the planets are falling
(For the rest of time)
They want to feel and know you hear them
(Go now run and hide)
Dark in their hearts
I can feel it burn inside of me
Tormented young with no souls, haunting me
Pain in their lives all they know is misery
Take these chains away that are holding me down
Go now run and hide
Eternal rest...in time
Eternal rest...in time
Eternal rest...in time
Eternal Rest
