Avenged Sevenfold is the fourth studio album by Avenged Sevenfold, released on October 30, 2007 by Warner Bros. Records. The album, originally slated for an October 16 release, was delayed by two weeks in order to provide more time to complete bonus material and production for the record, including the making of the animated music video for the song "A Little Piece of Heaven". The album debuted at number 4 on the Billboard 200. On September 23, 2008, the album was certified Gold by the RIAA. The album has also been released on vinyl. The band supported the album with a tour, beginning a day before the release of the album and ending in 2009.

All lyrics written by Midge Ure.
Despair will hold a place in my heart
a bigger one that you do do do
and I will always be nicer to the cat
than I am to you you you you
dear God, I hate myself
dear God, I hate myself
and I will never be happy
and I will never feel normal
[don't ask me if this line is about you]
what do they do there tonight tonight?
why do they go there alright alright?
why do they live there [tonight tonight]?
and why do they live at all alright alright?
dear God, I hate myself
dear God, I hate myself
and I will never be happy
and I will never feel normal
why do they live there [tonight tonight]?
and why do they live there at all alright alright?
flip off the mirror as protest
who the F-word are you you you?
and I will never be happy
and I will never feel normal
dear God, I hate myself
