Strength of the World

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 my father and sister too Cold-blooded, they suffered, shot down by the outlaws after you Sorrow swallows my screams 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 Avenge the dead kill all who cross me in my path Suicidal, I never planned on coming back I want it, I need it, revenge is dripping from my teeth Need nothin', to feel power, and bring the killers to their knees Nothin' ta lose vengeance ta 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 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 So far forever 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 --- Strength of the World - Avenged Sevenfold
