Strength of The World - Avenged Sevenfold Lyrics |
Strength of The World Is a Song by Avenged Sevenfold from the album City Of Evil
[Acoustic Guitar]
[Distorted Guitar]
[Verse 1]
My story starts the day they said "she can't be found".
The news so dark,heart stopped, I stood silent without a sound.
It's over, she's finished, mother lies with your father and sister too.
Cold-blooded, they suffered, shot down by the outlaws after you.
Sorrow swallows my screams.
[Chorus]
Strength of the world is on my shoulders.
Strength of the world is on my side.
Strength of the world the one true beholder.
Ice in my veins for those who've died.
I've seen my family fade away, you've taken my whole life.
There's nothing left to say.
[Verse 2]
Avenge the dead killed all who crossed me in my path.
Suicidal, I never planned on coming back.
I want it, I need it, revenge is dripping from my teeth.
Need nothing, to feel power, and bring the killers to their knees.
Nothing to lose vengeance to gain (you know I'll never be the same).
So taste my breath I'm close behind you (so desperate on your final day).
Sorrow swallows my screams.
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
Sitting in silence with heaven above me I prayed every night by their graves.
While I search for closure I feel it no longer.
I can't turn my cheek away.
I stand before you; I'll sin when I have to.
But now I leave your side, to avenge my family's pride.
[Chorus]
[Outro]
So far forever now alone, a greater punishment on me has been imposed.
A killer falling from the light, I'll miss my family, I'll never be alright.
