avanged sevenfold

House full of roses, a letter on the stairs

A tape full of messages for anyone who cares

Collage of broken words, and stories full of tears,

Remembering your life, 'cause we wish that you were here

Nothing is harder than to wake up all alone,

Realize it's not OK, it's the end of all you've known

Time keeps passing by, but it seems I'm frozen still,

Scars are left behind, but some too deep to feel



And some say this can't be real

And I've lost my power to feel tonight

We're all just victims of a crime

When all's gone and can't be regained

We can't seem to shelter the pain inside

We're all just victims of a crime



Some days you'll find me in a place I like to go,

Ask questions to myself 'bout the things I'll never know

What's left to find? 'Cause I need a little more

I need a little time, can we even up the score?



Some say this can't be real

And I've lost my power to feel tonight

We're all just victims of a crime

When all's gone and can't be regained

We can't seem to shelter the pain inside

We're all just victims of a crime



-Solo-



Nothing lasts forever, for all good things it's true

I'd rather trade it all, while somehow saving you

It must have been the season that threw us out of line

Once I stood so tall, now I'm searching for a sign



So don't need your salvation with promises unkind

And all the speculation, save it for another time

'Cause we all need a reason, a reason just to stay

And some just can't be bothered to

Stick around another day



-Solo-



And some say this can't be real

And I've lost my power to feel tonight

We've all been victims of a crime

When all is gone and can't be regained

We can't seem to shelter the pain inside

Ooh, we've all been victims of a crime

Victims of a crime

Living with this crime



I'm missing you

I'm missing you

I'm missing you

I'm missing you
