Scream
Avenged Sevenfold Lyrics

Caught up in this madness too blind to see
I am unable to see clearly due to the emotions that have taken over me.

Woke animal feelings in me
I am embracing my primal instincts and desires.

Took over my sense and I lost control
I am no longer in control of my actions due to the intense feelings I am experiencing.

I'll taste your blood tonight
I desire to express my dominance and control over you through violence.

You know I make you wanna scream
I have the power to create intense and possibly frightening emotions in you with my actions.

But now it's too late you've wasted all your time
You have already fallen victim to my desires and it is now too late to turn back.

Relax while you're closing your eyes to me
Allow yourself to let go of your inhibitions and give in to the intensity of the moment.

So warm as I'm setting you free
You may feel comfort in the realization that you are not in control and can submit to me.

With your arms by your side there's no struggling
Do not resist me, as I am in control and any attempts to fight back would be futile.

Pleasure's all mine this time
I am taking pleasure in the control and power that I have over you.

Cherishing, those feelings pleasuring
I am savoring the feelings of pleasure and control that I am experiencing.

Cover me, unwanted clemency
I reject any offers of mercy or leniency, as I am enjoying the power that I have over you.

Scream 'til there's silence
You may express your emotions and scream as loud as you want, but it will not change the fact that I have control over you.

Scream while there's life left, vanishing
You may scream as much as you want, until you are silenced either by me or by death.

Scream from the pleasure, unmask your desire
Allow yourself to become vulnerable and reveal your primal desires through intense emotions.

Perishing
Death or submission is inevitable in this situation.

We've all had a time where we've lost control
Everyone has experienced a moment where they have felt out of control of their actions and emotions.

We've all had our time to grow
We all have the opportunity to learn from our mistakes and grow as individuals.

I'm hoping I'm wrong but I know I'm right
Although I hope that there is a chance for redemption, I know that my actions and desires are true and devious.

I'll hunt again one night
I will inevitably continue to seek out the control and power that I enjoy over others.

Some live repressing their instinctive feelings
Many people choose to suppress their natural desires and primal instincts in order to conform to societal norms and expectations.

Protest the way we're built don't point the blame on me
Do not blame me for acting on innate desires that are a fundamental part of who I am.

Scream, scream, scream the way you would if I ravaged your body
Express the same intensity and emotion if I were to commit physical violence against you.

Scream, scream, scream the way you would if I ravaged your mind
Express the same intensity and emotion if I were to manipulate or emotional abuse you.

(This madness, this madness, this madness)
These intense and overwhelming feelings can be classified as madness or insanity.

(I lost control, lost control, lost control)
I have lost control of my actions and emotions in this intense situation.

(In this madness, this madness)
The feelings and emotions that have taken over me can be described as madness.

(I'll hunt again one night)
I will inevitably seek out the power and control that I crave in another situation or person.

(In this madness, this madness, I'll hunt again one night)
Despite the overwhelming and potentially dangerous feelings that I am experiencing, I will continue to seek out this poison in the future.
