Avenged Sevenfold - Afterlife (Alternate Version) [Official Audio]

[00:38.78] Like falling into a dream

[00:41.03] So unlike what you've seen

[00:43.28] So unsure but it seems

[00:45.78] 'Cause we've been waiting for you

[00:47.78] Fallen into this place

[00:49.78] Giving you a small taste

[00:52.03] Of your afterlife here, so stay

[00:54.28] You'll be back here soon anyway

[00:57.77] I see a distant light

[01:02.28] But girl, this can't be right

[01:06.53] Such a surreal place to see

[01:09.28] So how did this come to be?

[01:12.53] Arrived too early

[01:15.28] And when I think back of the places I just don't belong

[01:19.52] I've come to grips with life and realize this is going too far

[01:25.03] I don't belong here, we gotta move on, dear

[01:29.78] Escape from this afterlife

[01:33.78] 'Cause this time I'm right to move on and on

[01:39.03] Far away from here

[01:43.28] A place of hope and no pain

[01:45.52] Perfect skies with no rain

[01:47.79] Can leave this place but refrain

[01:50.28] 'Cause we've been waiting for you

[01:52.03] Fallen into this place

[01:54.28] Giving you a small taste

[01:56.53] Of your afterlife here so stay

[01:58.53] You'll be back here soon anyway

[02:02.28] This peace on earth's not right (with my back against the wall)

[02:06.53] There's no pain or sign of time (I'm much too young to fall)

[02:10.78] So out of place, don't wanna stay

[02:13.54] I feel wrong and that's my sign

[02:16.78] I've made up my mind

[02:19.52] Give me your hand but realize I just wanna say goodbye

[02:24.02] Please, understand I have to leave and carry on my own life

[02:29.28] I don't belong here, we gotta move on, dear

[02:34.04] Escape from this afterlife

[02:38.03] 'Cause this time I'm right to move on and on

[02:43.03] Far away from here

[02:46.28] Got nothing against you and surely I'll miss you

[02:51.53] This place full of peace and light

[02:55.53] And I'd hoped you might take me back inside

[03:00.53] When the time is right

[03:23.28] Loved ones back home all crying 'cause they're already missing me

[03:31.78] I pray by the grace of God that there's somebody listening

[03:40.53] Give me a chance to be that person I wanna be (this ecstasy)

[03:49.29] Oh, Lord, I'll try so hard, but you gotta let go of me (another chance to live!)

[04:59.78] I don't belong here, we gotta move on, dear

[05:04.53] Escape from this afterlife

[05:08.53] 'Cause this time I'm right to move on and on

[05:13.53] Far away from here

[05:16.78] Got nothing against you and surely I'll miss you

[05:22.03] This place full of peace and light

[05:26.28] And I'd hope you might take me back inside

[05:31.03] When the time is right, yeah!
