Eternal Rest
by Avenged Sevenfold· from Waking the Fallen
Black enchanting eyes, cut through my heart with no regret or sign of life.
They tear apart my pride and cold runs through my veins.
I feel their stare from miles, haunting every step and they won’t stop hunting me down.
I know the time will come, when all around me’s burned and you’ll still see me there.
Asking where you went to and what person brought you here.
And why you left the burning children cold out in the night and calling for you all alone…
I feel the darkness in their hearts.
Tormented young left without soul (without a soul).
They’ll find you alone, and your desperate villainous ways turning their hearts into stone.
The children seek more than just vengeance.
Your pain will be their satisfaction.
To look in through their eyes is to see the place they rest for all time, an eternity without one fair chance, an eternity that’s cut short by fate.
Hear the haunting words, lost children with no heart are crying, and you’re the lost mother they are calling.
I hear them crying at night, outside when the planets are falling.
The want to feel and know you hear them.
I feel the darkness in their hearts.
Tormented young left without soul (without a soul).
Go now… run and hide.
Go now… run and hide.
Eternal Rest… in time.
