Tension - Avenged Sevenfold Lyrics |
Tension Is a Song by Avenged Sevenfold from the album Diamonds in the Rough
[Verse 1]
I wake up every morning, bright and early.
Roll out of bed but I'm never quite alone.
Tension is pulling me in all directions.
And all of these problems use me as their own.
Sometimes the pressure will just drive you crazy.
At any time I could explode.
I need some piece of mind, it's got me tired.
Don't want to lose it, but I'm turning down that road.
[Chorus]
I need a moment cause I've spread myself to thin.
We all need a moment in our life.
Works hard, the days too long.
And that's just where it begins.
Tension has had us all this time.
[Verse 2]
I sit in traffic every single morning.
Just as I arrive, I'm slaving to the grind.
Making the money so I feed my family.
But I can't raise them, because I ain't got the time.
I got no free days on my busy schedule.
I turn the page and it's the same.
Don't like my situation, you don't either.
Don't want to look back scared, I'm working life away.
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
But every now and then
I drive alone
An open road
Hot summer day
A gentle breeze that feels alright.
All alone
And I can't feel no pain
Only strength
Enjoy the sights
I feel alive
Relaxing here just feels alright
Far from home
[Chorus]
