Burn It Down is the 2nd track on the album City of Evil, by Avenged Sevenfold.

As opposed to their other released videos from City of Evil, such as Bat Country which features a performance as well as a scenario running with the song, Burn It Down simply features the bands live performance of the song, however the audio itself is not live but the album track synced over the live video with the exceptions of the first and last few seconds. The song features a good mix of guitar technique highlighted by the dueling arpeggios at the beginning of the song and the famous heavy metal technique the gallop in the first verse. The song is lyrically taking perspective from someone who has been betrayed time and time again, and will take no more("Don't need you fuck camaraderie")and vows revenge("Hatred fuels my blood")

Burn It Down was also featured in the Saw III soundtrack.
