AVENGED SEVENFOLD LYRICS

1. Mad Hatter

[from "Call Of Duty: Black Ops 4" soundtrack]

From the manor a cutting whisper
Rising vapors through clocks of gold
Gilding fire unchains the demons
With undercurrents far too strong to hold

The sun burned out today
And fools are dancing in the rain
Scarred by the acid stain
And on the shelf a jar that holds my brain

Nightfall haunts us all from the shadows
Cynical beauty now lights the halls
Before the flicker there was only blackness
The end is coming and all my friends are dead

The sun burned out today
And fools are dancing in the rain
Scarred by the acid stain
And on the shelf a jar that holds my brain

Gripped by an empty world
Suffer the crushing weight
Madness will crawl inside
Alter the sober state
They're feeding all the voices in my head

(Slowly we're bled)
(Slowly we're bled)
(Slowly we're bled)
(Slowly we're bled)
(Slowly we're bled)

The Labyrinth hedges return to soil
Mother's weeping will go unheard
The dove that once flew here through the mazes
Had seen the darkness and chose to take its life

The sun burned out today
And fools are dancing in the rain
Scarred by the acid stain
And on the shelf a jar that holds my brain

Gripped by an empty world
Suffer the crushing weight
Madness will crawl inside
Alter the sober state
They're feeding all the voices in my head
They're feeding all the voices in my head
They're feeding all the voices in my head
They're feeding all the voices in my head

2. Carry On

["Call of Duty: Black Ops II" Track]

Some people live that selfish desire
Some choose to shout when they speak and they’ll be the start
Guarding the flame of those deep in fire
Seeking out those with a voice
One for tomorrow

They say we’ve lost our minds, we’ve just gained control
Search endlessly, fight till we’re free
Fly past the edge of the sea
No bended knee, no mockery,
Somehow we still carry on

Silence your fear, we’ve got to move higher,
Unlock the stars in the sky
Guarding us all
Battle the will of those who conspire,
Take back the passion to live, vanish the sorrow

Destroys their perfect crime, watch the power fold
Search endlessly, fight till we’re free
Fly past the edge of the sea
No bended knee, no mockery,
Somehow we still carry on

Search endlessly, fight till we’re free
Fly past the edge of the sea
No bended knee, no mockery,
Somehow we still carry on
Carry on

3. Not Ready To Die

[Made for "Call of Duty: Black Ops" game (map "Call Of The Dead")]

Gone, cast away in time
Evil yours, now evil mine
So I robbed you blind
The voices in my head could jest a less than peaceful side

The endless possibilities
Controlling every fight

You can't break me,
Crushed the fears of yesterday
You can't change me,
Barriers our trust will fade

I've stood in the dark,
Been waiting all this time
While we damn the dead I'm trying to survive,
I'm not ready to die!

Damned, watch the masses fall
Burn it down, control 'em all
Make me crawl
To daddy's little girl to read the writings on the wall

While cast into the nothingness
The final curtain call

You can't break me,
Crushed the fears of yesterday
You can't change me,
Barriers, our trust will fade

I've stood in the dark, been waiting all this time
While we damn the dead I'm trying to survive,
I'm not ready to die!

Through the madness we find,
Loyalty is no match for power
Say goodbye to your life,
Left to rot in your darkest hour
Prayers won't help you now,
As long as you're mine

You can't break me,
Crushed the fears of yesterday
You can't change me,
Barriers our trust will fade.

I've stood in the dark,
Been waiting all this time
While we damn the dead I'm trying to survive

And I'll control the world,
one person at a time,
As I damn the dead I'm trying to survive,
I'm not ready to die!

Oh!

I'm not ready to die!
I'm not ready to die!
I'm not ready to die!
I'm not ready to die!
