Lyric discussion by Benjumanji 

Cover art for Save Me lyrics by Avenged Sevenfold

Not sure the band ever said the Rev wrote these lyrics... in fact, I thought I saw that Shadows said Save Me was one of the songs for which he re-wrote the lyrics after the Rev's passing. I could be wrong, of course.

I'm surprised no one has said this yet, but I think the line "tonight we all die young" is definitely referring to the surviving band members each dying a little bit along with their best friend and brother.

By far the best song on Nightmare, and possibly the best song Avenged has ever written.

My Interpretation
