when i was 9 years old i had no idea wat this guy was saying, now im 18 and, wow, what an awesome song

[UnitedWeDivide]

A lot of their lyrics have been inspired by this song:

Death of Seasons: Post-human extinction excels unrecognized - - - . . .a culture of post morality . . . I hate humanity.

100 Words: I burnt the sky . . . I have so much to burn - - - I'll set the world on fire . . .

I like their new stuff, but I see this as its lyrical foundation.

[ColtonMcBonesHeil]

Overwhelmed with a deep repulsion for sights seen so commonly now I have come to be the walking enmity assimilate into a culture of post-morality from what I've seen I hate humanity rot with repulsion I'll write the world a brand new song look upon your bleak creation but is it truly me(?) that's come to feed(?) the human blasphemy I'll set the world on fire and in the burning light I will write my first love song and I will feel warmth hide your eyes in heaven in the lies believe relieve I'll e

inf for everyone afi is not an emo band fuck you emos and if they dont change their style i'll stop listen their music will be so boring also thats the kind of music daveys like because of that they have the alternative band blaqk audio when they are free to change because is another side of them anyway maybe they sond different now but he has learn so much hs voice i amazing and the lyrics are so deep like when they start afi rocks yesterday , now , and always

[BlackDahliaHcTk]

i love afi up until sing the sorrow, after that its all down hill, imo they shoulda stayed broken up or not written anything new at the very least, not bashin on u if u like their new stuff, i really dgaf just sayin their old stuff trumps their new with flying colors

[stupidpplmakemelaugh]

wow i used to pass this song off as "o.k." but after really listening to it i realized what a wicked song it .the lyrics guitar drums... everything is just flawless. they used to almost remind me of a new age misfits in black sails in the sunset and art of drowning

[Marsdevilsvolta]

@UnitedWeDivide yes, they arent going to make their music exactly like this anymore, people have to come to terms with that, but right there is proof that they have ALWAYS stayed true to what they believe.

[BlakeTahoe]

im 26 i started listening to AFI in 1990 when i was 6 or 7 my friends big brother boot legged a recording of them from a live show...sure their new direction isnt what they started as...but name one band who has stayed the same and still stayed on the scene (just look at metallica...their shit has gone WAY down hill..because they made the wrong change) either way AFI is doin something right to still be in the game(and making better music than bands like greenday who they started out with)

[roseakitohavok]

@UnitedWeDivide i think davey writes wut he does kcuz he kinda of sees theres a lot wrong with the world; he sings about the same stuff in sacrilege on their newest album but yeah i agree with yu
