God Damn is the fourth of eleven songs on Avenged Sevenfold's 2016 album, The Stage.
Lyrics
Hey, can't you see we're tripping on the wire
Walking through the candy land of our desires
Press the magic button and behold the world you crave
But where's the fun in freedom when it renders you a slave?
Pledge allegiance, no flag, God nation, Goddamned
The devil dances with the scorned, and how the fire keeps us warm
Hey, it goes beyond big brother in the sky
Beyond the threat of martial law, no Horus eye
No one came to cuff you, they just handed you the chains
Blind follows the blind and now the one-eyed man is king
Pledge allegiance, no flag, God nation, Goddamned
The devil dances with the scorned, and how the fire keeps us warm
Tunnel vision, no man, damn nation, God Damn
Can't see the forest for the trees, can't heal the wound before we bleed
No form of payment, no pot of gold, can satisfy the debt of what he's owed
Spilling from the houses in a trance the children lined up on the road
Cursing at the piper as he lured your kids away
And lead them to the river for what was their final day
No need for convincing, on his pipe he played a song to fool them all
Fooled them all
Pledge allegiance, no flag, God nation, Goddamned
The devil dances with the scorned, and how the fire keeps us (keeps us, keeps us)
Tunnel vision, no man, damn nation, God Damn
Can't see the forest for the trees, can't heal the wound before we bleed
