Avenged Sevenfold - Burn It Down (Explicit Lyrics)

Song: Burn It Down
Artist: Avenged Sevenfold
Album: City Of Evil

Avenged Sevenfold is an American metal band from Huntington Beach, California.

Burn It Down is from Avenged Sevenfold's third studio album City Of Evil, released in 2005. I think the song Burn It Down is about hating someone and wanting revenge on them for something they did, but getting lost in that hatred until it's the only thing you can see. I think the song is about a person consumed by hatred for someone who betrayed them. Lead guitarist Synyster Gates' guitar work is fantastic and I really like lead vocalist M. Shadows' voice. I love the sound of this song. It's loud and high energy and just a great hard rock/metal song.

"Burn It Down"

Jealousy's an ugly word, but you don't seem to care
Converse behind my back, but now I'm here
Need no one to comply with me through everyone that I defeat
Don't need you, fuck camaraderie, this rage will never go away

Hatred fuels my blood, I'll burn ya down (you can't help me)
One king to watch the horsemen fall, I'll fight 'til the end (I won't help you)
I can't trust anyone, see it in my eyes
Now I can understand, it's sorrow that feeds your lies

You're on my back when the water gets too deep for you to breath
A crutch for you that won't always be there
Hide in the dark another day, the fear in you is here to stay
So keep the fuck away from me and learn to trust the words I say

Hatred fuels my blood, I'll burn ya down (you can't help me)
One king to watch the horsemen fall, I'll fight 'til the end (I won't help you)
I can't trust anyone, witness and see it in my eyes
Now I can understand, put faith in you for the last time
It's sorrow that feeds your lies

Run from me before I tear you down (be afraid)
You chose the wrong side (it feels so right)
I won't help you, let you rot away (despise what you say)
Run towards the light exposing your soul (we won't be there by your side)
Salvation's dying (somebody's crying)
We're all gone in the end, sweet child we'll miss you
No, so far away, far away

I can't trust anyone, witness and see it in my eyes
Now I can understand, put faith in you for the last time
It's sorrow that feeds your lies

Falling away, can't buy back time
Burned it down anyways
