Critical Acclaim by Avenged Sevenfold

Shh, quiet, you might piss somebody off.
Like me, motherfucker, you’ve been at it for too long.
While you feed off others' insecurities, you stand in front of me and bite the hand that feeds.

Self righteousness is wearing thin.
(Lies inside your head, your best friend)
I’ll bleed but not for fellow man.
(Broken glass, your fake reflection)

Telling them it’s all for something real,
Don’t respect the words you're speaking,
Gone too far,
Acclaim.

So, how does it feel to know that someone’s kid in the heart of America has blood on their hands fighting to defend your rights?
So you can maintain the lifestyle that insults his family’s existence.
Well where I'm from we have a special salute waved high in the air towards all those pompous assholes who spend their days pointing fingers.

(Fuck you)

Shh, quiet, you might piss somebody off,
Like the heartbeat of this country when antagonized too long.
I’ll be damned if you count me in as part of your
Generous, hypocrisy collected and amazed.

Tabloid gossip, we want less real.
(There’s no need for us to bury you)
Selfish agenda, once again.
(Right this way, you dug your own grave)

Telling them it’s all for something real,
Don’t respect the words you're speaking,
Gone too far,
Acclaim.

All the way from the east to the west we got this high society looking down on their very foundation,
Constantly reminding us that our actions are the cause of all their problems.
Pointing their fingers in every direction,
Blaming their own nation for who wins elections,
They never contributed a fucking thing to the country they love to criticize.

Excuse the obscene,
Ignore the untrue,
Depictions we see,
Try and get through.
And many mistakes can't hurt,
I’m not the last, but I sure ain’t the first.

(Shh, quiet - you might piss somebody off)
Self righteousness is wearing thin.
(Lies inside your head, your best friend)
I’ll bleed but not for fellow man.
(Broken glass, your fake reflection)

Telling them it’s all for something real,
Don’t respect the words you're speaking,
Gone too far,
Acclaim.
