Avenged Sevenfold - Critical Acclaim Lyrics


Avenged Sevenfold Lyrics

Critical Acclaim Lyrics
Shhh... quiet, you might piss somebody off
Like me motherf*cker, you've been at it for too long
While you feed off others' 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
(Heart bleeds but not for fellow man)
Broken glass, your fake reflection

I've had enough
It's time for something real
I don't respect the words you're speaking
Gone too far, a clone


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 we aim high in the air
Towards all those pompous assholes who spend their days pointing fingers

F*ck you

Shh... quiet, you 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 collecting enemies

Tabloid gossip queen worthless man
(There's no need for us to bury you)
Selfish agenda, once again
(Right this way, you've dug your own grave)

I've had enough it's time for something real
Don't respect the words you're speaking
gone too far, a clone

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

Excuse the obscene, ignore the untrue
Depictions we see, try and get through
Admitting mistakes can't hurt
I'm not the last but I sure ain't the first

Shhh... quiet, you might piss somebody off

Self-righteousness is wearing thin
(Lies inside your head your best friend)
Heart beats but not for fellow man
(Broken glass, your fake reflection)

I've had enough it's time for something real
I don't respect the words you're speaking
gone too far, a clone
