Bat Country Lyrics

Avenged Sevenfold

He who makes a beast out of himself Gets rid of the pain of being a man
Caught here in a fiery blaze, won't lose my will to stay I tried to drive all through the night The heat stroke ridden weather, the barren empty sights No oasis here to see The sand is singing deathless words to me
Can't you help me? As I'm startin' to burn (All alone) Too many doses and I'm starting to get an attraction My confidence is leaving me on my own (All alone) No one can save me and you know I don't want the attention
As I adjust to my new sights The rarely tired lights will take me to new heights My hand is on the trigger I'm ready to ignite Tomorrow might not make it but everything's all right
Mental fiction follow me Show me what it's like to be set free
Can't you help me? As I'm startin' to burn (All alone) Too many doses and I'm starting to get an attraction My confidence is leaving me on my own (All alone) No one can save me and you know I don't want the attention
I'm sorry you're not here I've been sane too long my vision's so unclear Now take a trip with me But don't be surprised when things aren't what they seem
Caught here in a fiery blaze, won't lose my will to stay These eyes won't see the same, after I flip today
Sometimes I don't know why we'd rather live than die We look up towards the sky for answers to our lives We may get some solutions but most just pass us by Don't want your absolution ‘cause I can't make it right
I'll make a beast out of myself Gets rid of all the pain of being a man
Can't you help me? As I'm startin' to burn (All alone) Too many doses and I'm starting to get an attraction My confidence is leaving me on my own (All alone) No one can save me and you know I don't want the attention
I'm sorry you're not here I've been sane too long my vision's so unclear Now take a trip with me But don't be surprised when things aren't what they seem
I've known it from the start All these good ideas will tear your brain apart Scared but you, you follow me I'm too weird to live but much too rare to die

Actually this entire song is about an old movie called "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" that I just saw yesterday... I had no idea I'd end up learning something about A7X lol it completely took me by surprise... Anyways, if you watch the first 10 minutes of the movie, you'll see the quote that the song starts with, then the same red car in the desert like in the music video, the hitchhiker, one of them is swinging at bats with a flyswatter, and a guy even says "we're in bat country" and the whole movie is about doing drugs just like the song... "blaze", "too many doses", "starting to get an attraction", "my vision's so unclear" "take a trip with me" I could go on forever. It also ends with the same quote as the movie does, "too weird to live but much too rare to die" describing his druggie lawyer. Also the album is called "City of Evil" which is very similar to Las Vegas' nickname "Sin City" so it really makes alot of sense... I could go on forever about all the similarities cause there are so many but I think you get the point XD
