#AVENGED SEVENFOLD DEAR GOD MEANING FULL#

The music video is directed by Wayne Isham, who has shot videos for bands like Bon Jovi, Judas Priest and MГ¶tley CrГјe. The single and a live-action music video were released in early 2008. It was voted the best song of the new album on the band's homepage. The song itself features a string orchestra and was written by the band's drummer, The Rev. The song is released as the third single from their self-titled album. ' Afterlife' is a song by Avenged Sevenfold. 'And I hope you'd might, take me back inside when the time is right.2008 single by Avenged Sevenfold 'Afterlife'Дў007 at Sunset Sound Recorders in Los Angeles, California, Eldorado Recording Studios, and Burbank & Capitol Studios in Hollywood, California Even though she makes him feel so good and is everything that a relationship should be, he still has friends he loves and he wants to grow more and live his own way before he comes back because he knows he'll never be able to let her go. I think that Afterlife is actually that he sees his relationship as when he's with his 'little piece of heaven.' This 'perfect relationship' is his Afterlife of peace and light. If you've heard the lyrics to that song, you'll know that there's nothing heavenly about it. Near the end of the Album, they have the song, A Little Piece of Heaven. Like, 'oh lord I hate broccoli!' You aren't actually talking to god, it's just something you outloud as an interjection. He says 'oh lord I try so hard but you gotta let go of me.' I don't take this to mean that God wont let him go, I think he's using Lord as an interjection. You do pray to god that somebody is listening to your cries and desires to feel happy again. 'I pray by the grace of God that there's somebody listening.' When you're mad in love, and away from your friends and can't get over your partner, you do truly feel alone. Perhaps this is referring that he wants to be his own person again and not factor this girl back into it. 'Give me a chance to be that person I want to be.' Again, being mad in love will make you be someone you're not and suddenly you do everything with them on your mind and factor them into it. They haven't seen you in a long time and they miss you. Suddenly you stop going to your friends' and family's houses. 'loved ones back home all crying cuz they're already missing me.' Someone you're mad in love with will take all the life from you. Who refers to God as dear? It's something that people really only say to women they love. 'I don't belong here, we gotta move on dear.' Dear? There's the girl again. 'So why did this come to be? Arrived too early' Most people say that this means that he died young, but I see it as he's not grown enough as a person to have the kind of relationship that he has with this person. What can't be right? 'this peace on Earth's not right.' Okay. 'but girl this can't be right.' Girl? What girl? He didn't mention girl before. I instead read this as a man who is a relationship he feels he's not good enough for. I don't think that Afterlife is literally referring to the actual afterlife. So I have a very different reading of this song than most people. If you think I'm wrong, don't slam me for it, its just my opinionД®ither way, I'm sure we can all agree on one thing.this is a freaking awesome song when he says 'give me the chance to be the person I want to be.o lord ill try so hard but you gotta let me go.i need another chance to live', he's asking god for another chance to change his life. he decides that if he gets back, he's gonna turn is life around. he doesn't feel rit there because he doesn't deserve to be there. 'so out of place don't wanna stay, I feel wrong and that's my sign, I've made up my mind'. Then he sees heaven, and he realizes that he's been in to much sin to belong here. He says 'I've come to grips with life and realize that this is going to far' showing that he realizes he's been living wrong and if he doesn't change, this is where he's gonna end up. I think that he has a dream or vision and he sees himself in hell, but he doesn't think that's where he belongs, that there's no way he should be here. I believe that part of the song may be referring to hell, and part of it to heaven.

I've never heard hell described as a place of hope, no pain, and full of peace and light. I don't know about you, but that's not exactly how I picture hell, that sounds more like heaven. The problem with the idea that he was seeing hell is that it says 'a place of hope and no pain, perfect skies and no rain.this peace on earths not right, no pain or sign of time.this place is full of peace and light'. Aight, in my opinion, your kinda close, but a little mixed up.
