M.i.a. Lyrics - City Of Evil - Avenged Sevenfold

Staring at the carnage, praying that! the sun would never rise 

Living another day in disguise 

These feelings can't be right 

lend me your courage to stand up and fight, on tonight 

Ohhh... 

Stand up and fight 

The fighting rages on and on, to challenge me you must be strong. 

I walk your land but don't belong, two million soldiers can't be wrong 

It's no fun but I've been here before 

I'm far from home and I'm 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 

(Take 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 our mothers filled with 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 have my 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 our mothers filled with 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 would 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 

Stranger's blood on my hands, shot 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 

Ohhhh... 

Walk the city lonely, memories that haunt are 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 the Country
