Avenged Sevenfold Blinded In Chains lyrics

And we're at it again
I turn around another fucking war
Man, I don't know where to begin
But I'll start with the radical leaders
Their steps we're followin'

Running, don't go back and fight, too many, you'll lose
(And as clowns you follow suit
Behind the blood between the red and white and blue
But it's too deep for you to see
And everyone eventually will take the step
'Cause it's in sight, you take the left, I'll take the right
I feel the hate you've built for me and I say pay attention, baby)

As they thank the Lord the blind can't see
Like a plague fed to the brain, deadly disease

But it wasn't a sin
A sorry life in judging every action
And as they're feeding your mind
With this shit you forget how to speak
How to ask all the questions

The business at hand tonight, make the people choose
(I see another side in you
But there's not much more I can do
From on the outside looking in
Your government is listenin' to push you on the story
Of immortal father, mortal son give them your mind
And all your wealth the cycle will rebirth itself)

If they had it their way, I'd burn in hell
And your future's a fuckin' disaster, can't you see
Don't give them all the power when
Your future's in desperate trouble, baby

As they thank the Lord the blind can't see
Like a plague fed to the brain, deadly disease
I'd run away tonight with my mind still intact
You gotta make it alright
Easier said than done with no place to hide

And having no place to
Running away from condition

I see you but you're running away from
Your scared, seductive system

Most would claim I live a lie
(I live a lie)
When pointing out it's easy
To predict these things
Every color has its side
(I have a side)

They live together vote
And most embrace the same dark ties
Please help us, please save us
Of course they have control we're all the same
Up on the cross, crucified their problem
Drove the nail and let Him rot

Family and friends, it won't matter in the end
I'm sure they'll understand
Now look at the world
And see how the humans bleed
As I sit up here and wonder
'Bout how you sold your mind, body and soul

Looking at the fields so green
I know this sounds obscene
I see you're living for tomorrow
But decisions you have made
Will leave you empty

As they thank the Lord the blind can't see
Like a plague fed to the brain, deadly disease
I'd run away tonight with my mind still intact
You gotta make it alright
Easier said than done with no place to hide
And having no place to

You've fallen asleep in denial
Look at the way we're dyin'
How it ends I'll never know
Just live your life blind like me
