    [Verse 1]
    "I'll try"
    She said as she 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
    [Pre-Chorus]
    Nothing hurts my world
    Just affects the ones around me
    When sin's deep in my blood
    You'll be the one to fall
    [Chorus]
    "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
    Confided in me was your heart
    I know it's hurting you, but it's killing me."
    [Verse 2]
    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
    [Bridge]
    Break all your promises
    Tear down this steadfast wall
    Restraints are useless here
    Tasting salvation's near
    [Pre-Chorus]
    Nothing hurts my world
    Just affects the ones around me
    When sin's deep in my blood
    You'll be the one to fall
    [Chorus]
    "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
    Confided in me was your heart
    I know it's hurting you, but it's killing me."

    Why are there so many people here acting like how thrash fans acted when Metallica produced the Black Album? Nothing they've made remotely deserves that kind of insult or hate. And yes, HTTK is a bit below A7X standards, but its still better then most of the rest of the market, and its not actually bad at all, most of the songs are actually really good, imo, they were just a bit overly polished and could have used slightly better drumming, but I don't think that'll be a problem on the next album as of yet.

    • @Spartan322
      @Spartan322 8 років тому

      HTTK imho is the weakest album they got, but its so much better then most other bands still, and I feel it shouldn't be disregarded as an album. Although the drumming probably could have been better, but that's because the drummer they had wasn't into the music being produced, I would think Wackerman is likely to produce much better things.
      (However I am liking the direction they are taking so far, but it needs more refinement imho, and less polish maybe)

    • @Spartan322
      @Spartan322 8 років тому +1

      +anthony ellis Really? Nightmare (which was actually a very good album) and HTTK (which the weakest so far, is way better then most of the modern metal scene at the time it came out) were so bad for you that you call them Metallica? Like that's complete bs, and The Stage is just amazing. (Yeah remove or mark that statement as spam, because it was total shit)

Matt doesn't like to scream anymore and I can understand that but you can't deny the fan closeness and the guitar riffs. I love those guys. The raw talent, the whole ensemble, chapeau! as we say in french. Devoted fan from Montreal for life.

    This here is when you just know something really cool and unique is beginning to take shape. On an instinctual level, you're already aware of the greatness they are destined for. Whenever you have such a devoted, ever increasing fanbase working as hard as the band itself is to ensure you give them their chance- that's when you know something special is happening. Very few bands cultivated such a dedicated following within their grassroots when they were still just starting out. These types of fans are just the town locals who see them playing their local bars & night clubs on the weekends. No record deals, music videos, or slots to join Warped Tour have come yet. These are all just hundreds of locals following them, yet they're already enthralled by this undiscovered, no-name-band. The few other bands who also rose to prominence the same way by generating a cult following so soon are some of the biggest names in Rock history: The Ramones, Sex Pistols, Black Sabbath, Metallica, Guns N Roses, and Soundgarden are but a few of the other prestigious names who rose through the ranks the same as Avenged did by creating a local buzz so intense that it forced the record labels to sit up and take notice. These types of things become movements, and if you can manage these upstarts properly, then you have captured lightning in a bottle.
