Lirik : "Dear God" - Avenged Sevenfold

Avanged Sevenfold tidak melulu hingar bingar dalam memainkan musik rock, lewat lagu slow rock-nya kali ini berjudul Dear God mereka menggarapnya dengan kualitas mixing sound yang menawan. Set drum yang terdengar renyah, sayangnya : "Avenged Sevenfold drummer the Rev was found dead at his home in Huntington Beach, California on Monday december 28, 2 10. He was 28 years old". The Rev sang drummer telah tiada dan untuk kepentingan tour Avenged Sevenfold menghadirkan Mike Portnoy (Dream Theater Drummers) sebagai additional player. Btw tuk menambah info discografi Avenged Sevenfold ini terbentuk tahun 1999. Band ini terdiri dari vokalis M. Shadows, lead guitar Synyster Gates, Zacky Vengeance rhythm guitar, dan bassist Johnny Christ. Lagu ini cocok sekali nuansanya ketika diputar saat bepergian, secara liriknya memang pas buat di perjalanan. Di bagian reff lagu Dear God ini ada sedikit nggrenjel pengucapan liriknya yang pas "We all need that person who can be true to you",,

Dear God

Songwriters: Baker, Zachary James; Haner, Jr., Brian Elwin; Sanders, Matthew Charles; Sullivan, James Owen;

A lonely road crossed another cold state line
Miles away from those I love, purpose hard to find
While I recall all the words you spoke to me
Can't help but wish that I was there, back where I'd love to be, oh yeah

Dear God, the only thing I ask of You
Is to hold her when I'm not around, when I'm much too far away
We all need that person who can be true to you
But I left her when I found her and now I wish I'd stayed
Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired, I'm missing you again, oh no, once again

There's nothing here for me on this barren road
There's no one here while the city sleeps and all the shops are closed
Can't help but think of the times I've had with you
Pictures and some memories will have to help me through, oh yeah

Dear God, the only thing I ask of You
Is to hold her when I'm not around, when I'm much too far away
We all need that person who can be true to you
I left her when I found her and now I wish I'd stayed
?Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired, I'm missing you again, oh no, once again

Well, some search never finding a way
Before long they waste away
I found you, something told me to stay
I gave in to selfish ways
And how I miss someone to hold when hope begins to fade

A lonely road crossed another cold state line
Miles away from those I love, purpose hard to find

Dear God, the only thing I ask of You
Is to hold her when I'm not around, when I'm much too far away
We all need the person who can be true to you
I left her when I found her and now I wish I'd stayed
Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired, I'm missing you again, oh no, once again
