LYRICS:
Cry alone, I've gone away
No more nights, no more pain
I've gone alone, took all my strength
I've made the change
I won't see you tonight
Sorrow, sank deep inside my blood
All the ones around me I cared for and loved
Building up inside of me
A place so dark, so cold
I had to set me free
Don't mourn for me, you're not the one to place the blame
As bottles called my name
I won't see you tonight
Sorrow, sank deep inside my blood
All the ones around me I cared for and most of all I loved
But I can't see myself that way, please don't forget me
Or cry while I'm away
Cry alone, I've gone away
No more nights, no more pain
I've gone alone, took all my strength
But I've made the change
I won't see you tonight
So far away, I'm gone
Please don't follow me tonight
And while I'm gone everything will be alright
No more breath inside
Essence left my heart tonight
No more breath inside
Essence left my heart tonight

    The lyrics.. The guitar.. The vocals... This song is just fucking brilliant.
  • My best friend and I planned on getting the Deathbat tattooed on us one day. He sadly passed away in 2011 so I decided to fulfill our dream and I got it tattooed on my back and shoulders. He's always there with me.

    This is the hymn for all torn hearts suffering in solitude, drowning in despair and screaming in the inside.

    My Mother passed away from a drug overdose in 2009. I unfortunately was the one who found her. This was the last song I listened to with her. I was showing her some music the day before she passed. After she died I listened to this on repeat for mths balling my eyes out. It's Mother's day today...so I came here to listen to this song and remember her...and cry. I miss you Mom ❤

    A7X is my metal roots and why my taste in music has developed into what it is. I am a childhood cancer survivor and my Make A Wish Foundation wish was to meet them which I did in 2006 and got to play Chapter 4 with them on stage during their sound check. I will forever be grateful of them and all that they've done for me (I have Synister fedora and Shadows' aviators) A7X for life!
  • Suicide doesn't end the chances of life getting worse, it eliminates the possibility of it getting better.

    I swear I hope the younger generations discover this.

    After losing my mom dad month apart I listened to this fucking constantly. Prob wasn’t a good idea and I’m grateful I didn’t go through with it. Now I have 3 kids and it’s been 14 years. I am now 31. Please hold on people, it WILL ALWAYS GET BETTER. No shame in asking for help. I’ll help anyone with this problem if you ask. And getting on meds is not a bad thing at all. You will feel like a completely different person after finding the right mix of medications. Love you all and keep up the honorable fight!

    God the good old days. I’m 32 now and I used to be an admin on the old hopeless records forums when this album came out. Man I am feeling old. Cheers time goes to fast.

  • Avenged sevenfold is one of the reasons I'm here. This music makes me feel so much better on my worst days and even takes physical pain away.
  • I don't care how many people diss this band, this song has saved my life and countless others
  • When my mom sick i always listen this song and my mom was gone this song remembering me about my mom Rest In Peace mom i love you ❤😔
  • OMG How many times I thought of ending my life but I'm still here struggling with this fucking depression. I'm a proud survivor of life in 2019 I discovered an arteriovenous malformation in the brain and went to the surgery during the process I had a stroke and Lost all the movuments of the left side of my body I'm in recovery

    Fun fact: this song is about suicide told from the perspective of the person committing suicide (which is why it has a sad tone to it). Part 2 is from the perspective of the angry/confused family and friends of the deceased one (hence, it's violent/angry tone). I heard that they made this song as a tribute to Justin Sane (former bass player for them) because he attempted suicide.
