MIA

Staring at the carnage, Praying that the sun will never rise Living another day in disguise These feelings cant be right, Lend me your courage to stand up and fight on tonight Ooooo.... Stand up and fight Now fighting rages on and on, To challenge me you must be strong I'll walk your land but don't be long, Two million soldiers can't be wrong It's no fun but I've been here before I'm far from home and im fighting your war (Not the way I pictured this, I wanted better things) Some are scared others killing for fun, I shot a mother right in front of her son (Change this from my consciousness And please erase my dreams) Fight for honor, fight for your life Pray to God that our side is right Although we won, I still may lose, Until I make it home to you I see your mother still in tears Grew up so fast where did those years go Memories won't let you cry Unless I don't return tonight So many soldiers on the other side, I take their lives so they can't take mine (Scared to make it out alive, now murder's all I know) Nobody tells me all the reasons we're here, I am a weapon so there's nothing to fear (Another day another life but nothing real to show for) Fight for honor, fight for your life Pray to God that our side is right Although we won I still may lose, until I make it home to you I see your mother still in tears Grew up so fast where did those years go Memories won't let you cry Unless I don't return tonight Staring at the carnage, Praying that the sun will never rise Living another day in disguise These feelings can't be right, Lend me your courage to stand up and fight Watching the death toll rise, Wondering how I'm alive Strangers blood on my hands, shout all I can There were no silent nights Watching your brothers all die To destroy all their plans with no thought of me (No thought of me) No thought of me Ohhhhh..... We'll walk the city lonely, Memories that are not passing by A murderer walks your streets tonight Forgive me for my crimes Don't forget that I was so young, but so scared In the name of God and country





This song is about a soldier and he's ready to go home and he's sick of what all he has done during the war. this is another one of Avenged Sevenfold's songs. all of their songs have a deeper, hidden message. you have to really listen to them and appreciate them to understand them. i mean they have some of the best guitars and drum solos, you have to appreciate that!
