Seize the Day es una canción de la banda Avenged Sevenfold, presente en el álbum City of Evil, lanzado en 2005. La letra habla de valorar a las personas y los momentos que tenemos, ya que no sabemos cuándo todo puede terminar. La inspiración para la canción vino de experiencias personales de los miembros de la banda, particularmente del vocalista M. Shadows y de los sentimientos en torno a la pérdida y la valoración del momento presente.
Seize the day or die regretting the time you lost It's empty and cold without you here, Too many people to ache over I see my vision burn, I feel my memories fade with time But I'm too young to worry These streets we travel on Will undergo our same lost past
I found you here, now please just stay for a while I can move on with you around I hand you my mortal life, but will it be forever? I'd do anything for a smile, Holding you till our time is done We both know the day will come But I don't want to leave you
I see my vision burn, I feel my memories fade with time But I'm too young to worry A melody, a memory, or just one picture Seize the day or die regretting the time you lost It's empty and cold without you here, Too many people to ache over
Newborn life replacing all of us, Changing this fable we live in No longer needed here so where do we go? Will you take a journey tonight, Follow me past the walls of death? But girl, what if there is no eternal life?
I see my vision burn, I feel my memories fade with time But I'm too young to worry A melody, a memory, or just one picture Seize the day or die regretting the time you lost It's empty and cold without you here, Too many people to ache over Trials in life, questions of us existing here, Don't want to die alone without you here Please tell me what we have is real
So, What if I never hold you, yeah, Or kiss you lips again? Wooaaahh So, I never want to leave you And the memories for us to see I beg don't leave me
Seize the day or die regretting the time you lost It's empty and cold without you here, Too many people to ache over Trials in life, questions of us existing here, Don't want to die alone without you here Please tell me what we have is real
Silence, you lost me, no chance for one more day Silence, you lost me, no chance for one more day
