    Lyrics:
    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, just 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!
    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
    Give 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! )
    Aah!
    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!

    Fun fact: When I was a kid I thought the name Avenged Sevenfold meant the band had seven singers. So I had essentially envisioned this band as like a metal seven dwarves, and I was always trying to figure out which one was singing whenever I was listening to one of their songs.
    I remember when this song first came out and the music video was on tv. I was super pumped to finally see a video of them, but the shock and disappointment I felt when I realized there was only one singer and zero metal dwarves has haunted me ever since. I'll never forgive this band for that. They didn't do anything wrong, but I'll never forgive them.
    Edit: Holy shit this is the most likes I've ever gotten. Thx guys It's really nice to see rn.

      pjutub I feel bad that they made such a perfect video only for some company to hack and slash the full video. To me it's disrespectful to The Rev and everyone else who put their time and effort into making it.

    • @pjutub
      @pjutub 9 років тому

      Unguided Reaper exactly. and it's just because some "music industry" smart-ass found out that a 6 min. music video is too long for the, let's call them: "average viewer", because they get bored and switch channel... -_-
      sadly, Slipknot made this too with the Vermilion video, so you can't say that if a band is popular enough, they can and / or will say "f... you!" to these "rules". (I mean A7X probably wasn't that big shot back there at the time of this video)

    • @unguidedreaper7763
      @unguidedreaper7763 9 років тому

      pjutub They may not say it in words but they sure as hell show it in the video. Why make the extra effort in keeping the video the way it was when you can be lazy and make money off a shortened video? Big company music logic. What the hell is this? Fan logic. I hate crap like this. I wish the bands would tell them not to shorten the video.

I wish more people would let go of the comparisons and enjoy a band for who they are and what they stand for. If you don’t like it, move on to something that does speak to you.
