This song gets WAY better when you understand the lyrics. This is about the life of someone who commits suicide. First verse is birth - childhood. 2nd Verse is highschool - adulthood. But after getting married, he finds himself in a routine with no real purpose. Bridge talks about him reflecting in the mirror, considering putting a fake smile on but then quickly realizing he just doesn't have the will. Outro is how he actually commits suicide (hung himself from tree branch). When you match this story with the beautiful music, especially the calm parts, it becomes pretty powerful. Definitely made me tear up a little imagining being in the shoes of this man.

What's up, everybody. Welcome to 7 years in the making!

This song sounds like all Avenged songs mixed together. I love it

I had the privilege of seeing this song live in Daytona and I was not prepared for how amazing the studio version would sound.

They are really showing that they can play any instrument on this album and do any genre. One of a kind band and legends!

Avenged of a Down or System of a Sevenfold, Perfect

This is a really good opening track! The chorus and post chorus really bring out the classic Avenged that we're all used to.

Even tough I've been preparing for this album since day 1 of the release of Nobody, I'm actually not sure if I'm prepared to hear so many good songs from Avenged Sevenfold. After 7 years getting 11 songs in one day is extraordinary. Were blessed! Thanks so much Avenged!

AVENGED SEVENFOLD IS BACK BABY

Who else watching these in order?

It makes it even better to know the Rev would have loved every single one of these, from start to finish! what a record

I love how this one goes from calm to chaos to calm... It's beautiful 🥺❤️

I genuinely love ramp up of both the piano and vocals at 2:39 The emotion is so powerful here. It’s so incredibly sad, but I love it so much.

( 0:41 - 1:06 ) This sound so much like it was influenced by SYSTEM OF A DOWN, love it!!! God!!!! It was worth the 7 year wait! thanks A7X, we fans from Brazil We are very happy for you! This got insane man, imagine a mosh pit with this song oh my god! I want SO MUCH Come to Brazil please!!!🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

Beautiful. Have no words. First a rap-ish verse like a SOAD or a Limp Bizkit song. Progressive chords and rythm like a Dream Theater song. Faster than ever like early Metallica/Megadeth stuff. Calm parts and their contrast with the faster parts are pretty unique. Worth listening for sure.

Y'all gotta listen to this album from finish to start. It's like descending to chaos and it ends with Matt saying "Life is but a dream anyway...", the best way to experience this album!!!

This song has a chaotic energy, quite like a SOAD song, yet it's still very unique

I wasnt a fan at first but this my my favorite opener that they have ever done in a album. The ending makes me cry. This album has everything

Love how people say this song and the album is trash I’m living this

Im loving the psychedelic turn you guys are taking. I heard Nobody on the radio for the first time the other day and it actually blew my mind

This song was badass live

This perfectly encapsulates the modern human experience. Everything comes at you fast and doesn't relent for a moment. Getting swept up in the rush, you might end up losing yourself in the process.

this is the only album where I absolutely adore each and every track. even the solo piano closer. bravo to the poetic writing, and the genius instrumentals.

old metal heads are gonna call it bad but honestly, I appreciate then going really experimental with this album and not going with a clear cut formula like other bands recycle every album

This album is a masterpiece.

Whether they meant to or not, these fellas made a killer prog metal album and its absolutely fantastic

New album is insane, instant classic!

I'm glad so many people don't like it, if you watch any of m shadows interviews he makes it pretty clear they don't focus on fan reactions. They, as a band, do what they love to do and they use what motivates them to do it! They are evolving and taking their life long fans with them as well as anyone who wants to join them. It's definitely not for people that want repetition.. and that is what makes it great!

at first I was kinda meh on the album but then it really grew on me, really out there and experimental and just cool - love it

Getting SOAD vibes on this track 🎉

Que hermosa canción la voz de Matt hermosa como siempre, me recuerda tanto a Burn It down, gracias Avenged sevenfold 🖤

Album of the Year, a Masterpiece that transcends the genre. Well done boys, this is blowing my mind everyday.

Ngl, last few lines from "it strikes me that i dont belong here anymore" hit me way too fuckin hard

Some people dislike this song because it doesnt sounds like Avenged Sevenfold and there's glimpse of System of a Down on it. But as the big fan of those 2, that makes this song sounds a way moooooreeee appealing for me 😂

This is so awesome, in a few years everyone will say it's nostalgia

After all these year, i've been waiting only for "as it may, as it may. as it may, as it may"

For some reason I wasn’t in love with the album right away, but I fuckin love it now. So good

Bro my childhood smacked me in the face at 2:14. Something about that switch. Made me realize how much I need to appreciate what I got while I got it

the evolution of Burn It Down i love it

This album made me feel like I was watching a story…. with my ears

To the whole avenged crew thank you. I’ve been listening to you since I was like 10 years old. You guys have inspired me in my time of darkness several times and I love the rev I just wanted to say thanks for the inspiration

So different from earlier work but it sounds like Avenged at the same time. Im liking this album a lot so far

That intro was fire asf

This is my favorite song from the new album This song have a Sounding the Seventh trumpets vibes and the vocal style like Demons 🔥🔥🔥🔥

I've been listening to A7X since my high school days. I couldn't be happier about this new album. Thank you for the gift. You have my heart ❤

That's what I expected and more! This is a masterpiece

Que buen álbum!!! Vengan a México por favor! 🇲🇽🇲🇽

Years of waiting is not wasted..the entire album is musical genius

Eu sou o comentário Brasileiro que você procurava, que música foda ne ? pqp Avenged Sevenfold entregou tudo nesse novo album

Me imagino lo que hubieran logrado crear si Jimmy aún estuviera aquí... sin embargo lo lograron y el nuevo rumbo que tomaron todo es simplemente espectacular... estoy sin palabras ...este álbum es una obra maestra... escuchar A7X se siente como volver a casa ❤❤

This album is an absolute masterpiece Easily worth the years

This song reminds me of Queen and System of a down love child!

As I swing from my family tree 🌳

Avenged of a Down This is a banger!

Really like the new album! Different, mix of hard rock and metal. Love the little classical guitar-ish parts in this song!

***** I'm shocked to read bad comments. I just saw them live in Quebec City (21-07-2023) and I loved it. this album is a masterpiece and the live performance is absolutely incredible. thank you A7X for your dedication. after listening the album 40 times, I can say how incredible it is! Im so surprise to see peoples, obviously not knowing anything about MUSIC put 1* i can’t wait for the next album!

after the guitar intro i got a System of the down vibe and its awesome

This is song is the best on the album. Who's with me ? ( Even if you aren't, we all absolutely love A7X , so no fights. :D

Now this is my favorite

After listening to album 3 times now, it’s almost like Disney or Pixar was dropping a new movie & they wanted A7X to do the soundtrack.

Absolute masterpice. Almost made me cry halfway through. So good wow

This song screams soad energy

Im listening to the whole album before I buy it and I’ve listened to this song nobody and we love so far I don’t care for we love you

I love this album so much omg 💜🇧🇷

I've never heard more welcoming music. Welcome to the Family.

Been wanting to hear the studio version, absolutely phenomenal 🔥🔥🔥

Only a band like this can pull the switch up perfect

I love it. Pure Avenged Sevenfold.🤟🤟🤟

At long last! It’s been a long 7 years! The kings are back! 🤘

I heard it when they play it in Las Vegas. Sounds so good 😍 ❤

I Love Avengged Sevenfold, Salam Dari Indonesia❤🙏🙏

I cant wait to see this live at nashville😵‍💫😝

if you think their music are weird, you had a cheap taste of music, because A7X is one of genius musicians! imagine if A7X came from 90's band, did you still hating their song? i think if they're came from 90's, their music will be equal with Metallica, GNR, Dream Teather. and i believe you will never think A7X song are weird, and you will never hating their music because they're 90's band. their music is anti mainstream and unique. everything is about perspective, and half of people will stuck in cheap taste of music and love to listening mainstream music

Incrível como o Brooks consegue dar coração na música com sua habilidade

Man this is so good!!! Its got all the stuff we love about them all put together in one song!

I don’t give a fuck what anyone says, this whole fucking album was wonderful, I love this band so much, hope they keep making great bangers like this

from 1998 i hear sevenfold song until 2023 , i'm still stand here and always hear all song sevenfold album's FROM INDONESIA 🤘🤘🤘

every new A7X album that comes out makes me sad that my little brother couldn't be around to experience it.

This my favorite as it may

True chaos

city of evil + self titled so good...

This song takes me back to the seventh trumpet sounding era with new vibes 🎉

I been dying for this one ! 🖤

Stayed up till 1 all the songs just dropped a land honestly it was so worth it these songs are amazing

This song sounds so much better on the album, I’ll give it that

This song kicks ass

I cannot put into words just how much I love this album. Thank you so much A7X 🤘🤘🤘

beautiful album

RIP Rev You really were the only person adding original ideas to the music

The fact that I can releate to this song in a strange way is crazy. So glad my rope wasn't as strong as in this song. Thanks you A7X for this.

This is one of the best A7X songs ever and I don’t care what anyone says 🤘🏻 Matt’s vocals at the end are so beautiful and epic

Hell yeah this album rocks

Well, I’m glad they’re having fun.

2:15 is probably my favorite part of the entire song with beautiful yet melancholy feeling to it . 2:40 paired with the badass piano with Matt’s amazing voice with back to the melancholy esc vibe at 2:48. Then going straight back into the chaos at 2:59 also the flute makes the entire melancholy part even better

When I first listened to this album I thought wtf is this? But there's one thing I've noticed this album tells a story and in order to experience that you have to listen to it from beginning to end multiple times. That being said I love this album very different but that's what I love about it.

Beautiful art-rock in the traditions of the 70s! Brilliant! Congratulations!👏

I can smell that Grammy award is coming soon

GOD DAMM. FUCKING FIRE
