Avenged Sevenfold - M.I.A. Lyrics

Send "M.I.A." ringtones to your cell

Staring at the carnage, praying that the sun would never rise
Living another day in disguise, these feelings cant be right
Lend me your courage to stand up and fight tonight
Stand up and fight

The fighting rages on and on
To challenge me you must be strong
I'll walk your land but don't belong
Two million soldiers can't be wrong

It's no fun but I've been here before
I'm far from home and I'm fighting your war
(Not the way I pictured this, I wanted better things) 
Some are scared, others killing for fun
I shot a mother right in front of her son
(Take this from my consciousness and please erase my dreams) 

Fight for honor, fight for your life, pray to God that our side is right
Though we won I still may lose, until I make it home to you
I see our mothers filled with tears, grew up so fast, where did those years go? 
Memories won't let you cry unless I don't return tonight

So many soldiers on the other side
I take their live so they don't take mine
(Scared to make it out alive now, murders all I know) 
Nobody tells me all the reasons we're here
I have my weapon so there's nothing to fear
(Another day, another life but nothing real to show for) 

Fight for honor, fight for your life, pray to God that our side is right
Though we won I still may lose, until I make it home to you
I see our mothers filled with tears, grew up so fast where did those years go? 
Memories won't let you cry unless I don't return tonight

Staring at the carnage, praying that the sun will never rise
Living another day in disguise, these feelings cant be right
Lend me your courage to stand up and fight

Watching the death toll rise, wondering how I'm alive 
Stranger's blood on my hands, shot all I can
There are no silent nights, watching your brothers all die 
To destroy all their plans, with no thought of me
(No thought of me) No thought of me

Walk the city lonely, memories that haunt are passing by
A murderer walks your streets tonight
Forgive me for my crimes; don't forget that I was so young
Fought so scared, in the name of God and country
