CHILDREN OF BODOM LYRICS

1. Living Dead Beat

[Music & Lyrics by: Alexi Laiho]

Once again waiting for the darkness, beat up
Spun and scarred. Prepare for another war.
Day by day we decay. Sunlight, get out of my way.
Dig up yourself from your grave.

Bad to the bone, raised in the gutter,
Not exactly a motherfucking role model.
To you looking down on me.
FUCK YOU BITCH!
Ain't got time for the future or the past.
Live for the moment, make it last.

As long as the twilight veils
The decadence we embrace
More than the ones we love.
We're ardent, we're burning down...

[Chorus:]
Not afraid of crying, sorrow and foe.
Not afraid of falling down below.
To the night, recklessly we fly.
Like living dead, we'll never die.

Stalling the sandman, fighting back
Drinking like a madman, run away from the light to come.
SHIT FALLS DOWN!
Sun comes up shining bright
Time to close your eyes..

[Chorus]

As long as the twilight veils
The decadence we embrace
More than the ones we love.
We're ardent, well burn it down

[Chorus]

2. Are You Dead Yet

Don't hear, don't deem. Drown in before you dive.
Don't care, commit to your self destruction drive
I kiss the ground with love beyond forever
Flip off the sky with bleeding fingers till I die

Enemy, take a one good look at me.
Eradicate what you'll always be,
Your tainted flesh, polluted soul through a mirror I behold.
Throw a punch, shards bleed on the floor
Tearing me apart but I don't care anymore.
Should I regret or ask myself
Are You Dead Yet?

Wake up, don't cry. Regenerate to deny the truth,
The fiction you live in blindfold your eyes.
Disclosure, self loathing. This time you've gone too far.
Or could it be, my nemesis that you are me?

Enemy, take a one good look at me.
Eradicate what you'll always be
Your tainted flesh, polluted soul through a mirror I behold.
Throw a punch, shards bleed on the floor
Tearing me apart but I don't care anymore.
Should I regret or ask myself ARE YOU DEAD YET?

3. If You Want Peace... Prepare For War

Go!

Pain ain't even really what you wanna be
5 feet under seeing what you gonna say
The opportunity too divide
The opportunity of being apart!!

Soon be there, the moon in the sky tonight
We're burning on a purified
Smash your face and then I beat it down
Are we really gonna die

Get up and fight, release your rage, come on and fight
Standing straight faced, it is your fate, calling my name
Calling me pain, and if you stay, you'll bite the scythe
Waiting for you I want to just tell you
If you want peace, prepare for war
Fuck!

[Solo]

Get up and fight, release your rage, come on and fight
Standing straight faced, it is your fate, calling my name
Calling me pain, and if you stay, you'll bite the scythe
Waiting for you I want to just tell you

Get up and fight, release your rage, come on and fight
Standing straight faced, it is your fate, calling my name
Calling me pain, and if you stay, you'll bite the scythe
Waiting for you I want to just tell you
If you want peace, prepare for war

4. Punch Me I Bleed

From the reign I've built
Of shame and guilt
I go back and take a look
At myself and what
I have done so far
At the bridge she's
Dying waiting till light

No choice to go
Backward, inwards
Okay, shatter us
You're too cold to swing by

Going down I walk my way to hell
Deep to the obscurity
Obliterating you in every way
With my life's insanity

Battered up again
I'm going all insane
Curled up on the floor
Wonder ways to kill the pain and
What doesn't kill you
Only makes you pissed off

Sweep back to kill
You pray, make it go away
So long to pack your shot at me
Cause when you punch me, I bleed

Going down I walk, my way to hell
Deep to the obscurity
Obliterating you in every way
With my life's insanity

[Solo]

No choice to go
Backward, inwards
Okay, shatter us
You're too cold to swing by

Going down I walk my way to hell
Deep to the obscurity
Obliterating you in every way
With my life's insanity

5. In Your Face

GO!

Conflict, terror, hear the noise.
You're on the edge of a nerve-racking force.
But, oh, my god, here's the fight.
Never siege, never riot, must defy.

Well look at me, what do you see?
Another trophy, a living fucking dead beat
Close your eyes take a step with me
You're gone but it's not too late
Exhibiting Abnormality
It's not what you call reality.
But you will always forget
One thing I'd like you to know

I don't give a flying fuck motherfucker
I don't give a flying fuck motherfucker
I don't give a flying
I don't give a flying,
I don't give a flying FUCK

I'll never wait for any interference
When the other people talk all over my shit
But do I speak thee, yes I do
So fuck hypocrisy and fuck you too

INCOMING!

[Chorus:]
Say one, more word, I double dare you (bring it on)
It's my world, you're in it, it'll take you down in a minute
You can alter your look, diversify your age.
But the truth seems like a bitchslap in your face.

Well look at me, what do you see?
Another trophy, a living fucking dead beat
Close your eyes, take a step with me
You're gone but it's not not too late
Exhibiting Abnormality
Careful what you call reality
But you will always want
You want the day that you shall die.

I don't give a flying fuck motherfucker
I don't give a flying fuck motherfucker
I don't give a flying
I don't give a flying
I don't give a flying FUCK

INCOMING!

[Chorus]

INCOMING!

6. Next In Line

[Verse 1:]
Well let me tell why
Or did you tell your swine
"Another day goes by"
So why do you see me swept in blood

[Verse 2:]
So lets just fight
Wait for a dawn
Something sweeps by in pride
Erasing another life

[Chorus:]
I am the chosen, next in line, sent to slaughter all mankind
Reap the souls born to die, no reason for you to fight

[Verse 3:]
My chance is fine
I cant stop screaming for
Fuck them!
We've been obliged to sign
And relieved of our life

[Repeat Chorus]

7. Bastards Of Bodom

The slaying at Bodom from so long ago
Still carry a secret, of which nobody knows
A seed that was planted as the night turned to dawn
Will now bring me to life as the reaper's spawn
I'm a bastards of Bodom and I walk alone
As I follow the reaper, to lead me back home
My victims shall perish on the shores of this lake
As they look upon me, to stare death in the face

I don't need a reason, and I won't tell you why
I'll just take you to hell by the edge of my scythe!
I was born to end life, I can take any form
A shapeshifting demon, killing for sport
Like father, like son, this is my fate
Taking your lives and breeding the hate!

I don't need a reason, and I won't tell you why
I'll just take you to hell by the edge of my scythe!

8. Trashed, Lost And Strungout

Once a day falling on the trail walking blind trade nothing discretion in low,
It's hard to wait taking yourself in honor I should know how low I can go.

Before I go high I'm very down,
And I'll be going after it again and again.

You try biting all the way not be one to be trashed, lost and strungout,
Then again try something fucked to mess around with what's to coming out.

Before I go high I'm very down,
And I'll be going after it again and again.

Come on!

Maybe I shouldn't profisize my life what the fuck have I done to you?
But did you ever be harassed, with my head still trying to tell me what the fuck to do!

I need to get it to the point where I cannot do,
Nothing but trying to be strungout on you.
Let me drown way deep down below for a sleep that'll surely let go.
Until the end I raise and batter around looking at my own reflection.
Forever lost I kiss you good bye to kill my soul addiction.

Before I go I hit the ground,
The only way I ever get down,
And with the next you'll tell me where to go,
Then I'll be going after it more and more!

I need to get it to the point where I cannot do,
Nothing but trying to be strungout on you.
Let me drown way deep down below for a sleep that'll surely let go.
Until the end I raise and batter around looking at my own reflection.
Forever lost I kiss you good bye to kill my soul addiction.

9. We're Not Gonna Fall

Woah yeow

They try kicking and screaming as loud
Contation break us apart
Will not control us they won't hold you down
I'm sorry, that's my knife in you!
Another day of falling down your way
Pushing and screaming cause
They thought it might be right

Hey

Take my hand and fly
Will you ever be that tall
Don't you be afraid
We're not gonna fall

Did you think
I'd let you mix it up
Give me a reason bitch
You're gonna fuck it up

Hey

Take my hand and fly
Will you ever be that tall
Don't you be afraid
We're not gonna fall

Hey

Do you believe in what we've got
Try it, take your one shot
We stand once and for all
We're not gonna fall

[Solo]

Well you thought you had the authority
To slay and kill the minority
Together we stand tall
Not gonna crash, not gonna fall

Did you think I'd let you mix it up
Give me a reason bitch
I'm gonna fuck you up
It's real, into the charge

At the end we're standing up
