We Love You Lyrics

[Intro]
There you are, you've come so far
Sunny days, the air tastes so sweet
Flowers greet
Birds will sing "you mean everything"
You can be anything

[Verse 1]
More power, more pace
More money, more taste
More sex, more pills
More skin, more shills
Build tall, build higher
Build far, build wider
Build here, build down
Build up, build now

[Chorus]
But look at the way you go
You're one in a million, and you know it shows
And we love you

[Post-Chorus]
Unto the mud!

[Verse 2]
More wants, more needs
More hits, morphine
More speed, more drive
More self, more time
Build out, build fast
Build strong, build vast
Build too, build more
Build all, build war
[Chorus]
Look at the way you go
You're one in a million, and you know it shows
And we love you

[Post-Chorus]
Do unto the mud!
Mud!

[Bridge]
Race to scale the body stack
And lay foot to face atop broken back
A failure here is a failure earned
So do unto the top!
Do unto the end!
Do unto the mud, do!

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
More power, more pace
More money, more taste
More sex, more pills
More skin, more shills
More wants, more needs
More hits, morphine
More speed, more drive
More self, more time
Build tall, build higher
Build far, build wider
Build here, build down
Build up, build now
Build out, build fast
Build strong, build vast
Build, build, build, build
Build, build, build, build
[Chorus]
Look at the way you go
You're one in a million, and you know it shows
And we love you
Look at the way that you choose
You know you'll never lose
And all that you are, it was all you deserved anyway
Sunny days

[Outro]
And we love you
We love you
We love you

Genius Annotation

“We Love You” is the second single and fourth track on Avenged Sevenfold’s 8th studio album, Life Is But A Dream… The song talks about how we simultaneously build and destroy our own existence with all the power and speed that we use for all the wrong reasons, more specifically capitalism, urging individuals to relentlessly pursue personal objectives, regardless of the consequences. Accompanying the song is a video crafted by the artist Ryan McKinnon. The video starts in a tranquil oasis of nature, providing a fleeting respite before the encroaching pressures of society reveal their true weight.
