Avenged Sevenfold
"Critical Acclaim"

(Shh, quiet, might piss somebody off)
Like me motherfucker you’ve been at it for too long.
While you feed off all those insecurities, you stand in front of me and bite the hand that feeds.

Self righteousness is wearing thin (lies inside your head, your best friend)
I’ll bleed but not for fellow man (broken glass, your fake reflection)

Telling them it’s all for something real
Don’t respect the words your speaking
Gone too far

So, how does it feel to know that someone’s kid in the heart of America has blood on their hands fighting to defend your rights so you can maintain the lifestyle that insults his family’s existence
Well where I'm from we have a special salute waved high in the air towards all those pompous assholes who spend their days pointing fingers.

Fuck you...

(Shh, quiet, might piss somebody off)
Like the heartbeat of this country when antagonized too long
I’ll be damned if you count me in as part of your generous hypocrisy; collected enemies.

Tabloid gossip we want less real (There’s no need for us to bury you)
Selfish agenda, once again (right this way, you dug your own grave)

Telling them it’s all for something real
Don’t respect the words your speaking
Gone too far

All the way from the east to the west we got this high society looking down on their very foundation.
Constantly reminding us that our actions are the cause of all their problems.
Pointing their fingers in every direction.
Blaming their own nation for who wins elections.
They never contributed a fucking thing to the country they love to criticize.

Excuse the obscene
Ignore the untrue
Depictions we see
Try and get through
And many mistakes can hurt
I’m not the last, but I sure ain’t the first!

Self righteousness is wearing thin (lies inside your head, your best friend)
I’ll bleed but not for fellow man (broken glass, your fake reflection)

Telling them it’s all for something real
Don’t respect the words your speaking
Gone too far
