Song lyrics
A living nightmare, asleep but still aware
The endless torture, the painless pleasure

I grasp myself trying to regain control
Experienced and learned in another faction of my mind
So confused but everything makes perfect sense
Can't feel the pain, emotional pain is so much deadlier

Lost, you've just been raped
Pain, your friends can't help you
Why wont they help you?
Another reality

This can't be happening
Why is this happening?
Who the fuck are you?
Who the fuck...are you?

Trying hard to figure out what's done
I scramble but now I run the images in my head
All the problems that I've been fed
All the problems that I've been fed
Running in my head

Punching slowly my mind can't change the speed
As my victims bleed
No matter what I do or how hard I try
Can't use my abilities, use my abilities

Art of illusion

My razor sharp knife's edge, pierces my victim's body
But I cannot take their soul
Punching through jello, stabbing not killing
Disappointment, discomfort

My razor sharp knife's edge, pierces my victim's body
But I cannot take their soul
Punching through jello, stabbing not killing
Disappointment, discomfort

The higher pitched screaming is Valary DiBenedetto - M Shad's girlfriend. She's a great screamer, I hope she can do more screaming for future albums.

I love the screaming in this song that is different than the screaming you normally hear from A7X. I don't know really how to explain it but it's more high pitched I guess. Like someone throwing a temper tantrum. It sounds really cool but I'm wondering who does that part. M. Shadows normally does the screaming I believe but this song sounds different so I'm wondering if it's someone else. Sorry for being such a dorkus, I'm just completley infatuated with Avenged Sevenfold.

I love this song.

First time I listened to it I was on my way to a haunted house at 9 at night. The part that says:
Punching slowly my mind can't change the speed....No matter what I do or how hard I try.
made me jump.
