Avenged Sevenfold - Afterlife

Afterlife


Like walking into a dream, so unlike what you've seenso unsure but it seems, 'cause we've been waiting for youFallen into this place, just giving you a small tasteof your afterlife here so stay, you'll be back here soon anyway
I see a distant light, but girl this can't be rightSuch a surreal place to see so how did this come to beArrived too early
And when I think of all the places I just don't belongI'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
A place of hope and no pain, perfect skies with no rainCan leave this place but refrain, 'cause we've been waiting for youFallen into this place, just giving you a small tasteof 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 signI've made up my mind
Give me your hand but realize I just wanna say goodbyePlease 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 hereGot nothing against you and surely I'll miss youThis place full of peace and light, and I'd hope you mighttake me back inside when the time is right
Loved ones back home all crying 'cause they're already missing meI pray by the grace of God that there's somebody listeningGive me a chance to be that person I wanna be(Who are you?; 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)
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 hereGot nothing against you and surely I'll miss youThis place full of peace and light, and I'd hope you mighttake me back inside when the time is right
