My favourite is from 'Not my funeral'

"Let me get this one flat out straight
Illuminate please it’s not too late
Since when did you become a god?"

deffinatly my favourite song on the album! :)
 
does anyone have a guess about northpole throwdown? maaan, even Alexi can't tell what he's singing there...
 
I have a question for the Song DWEDFN:
Is this right?

Let me bring you down real easy
You've got no room left to run
So you preach over me like I will never know
Go on if they want you to
Just for your piece of mind
I've got no fucking shame
And I will laugh before you die
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/c/children_of_bodom/done_with_everything_die_for_nothing.html ]
Wonder, Wonder why you wonder
Look inside me and you will see
What the fuck
Can be asunder
And you just let me be
They got too far
So my hands out for me,
For beating
Let me out
To the fact that I don't care
Your buried fact, your buried pair

Take me away
Anyway, that's not my way
Don't care, I don't care which way
Toss me aside
I wont crash
I will never trust
On account of being done for the die

I'm HALFWAY DEAD


Take me away
Anyway, that's overwith
Don't care, I don't care which way
Trust me I say-
I wont crash
I will never trust
On account of being done for the die

Or this:
Let me bring you down real easy
you've got no room left to run
so you preach over me like I will never know
go on if they want you to
just for your piece of mind
I've got no fucking shame
and I will laugh before you die

Wonder, Wonder why you wonder
looking for me-never seen
what the fuck
cant be your servant
and you just let me be
they got too far
so my hands out for me,
for beating
let me out
to the fact that I don't care
your buried fact, your buried pair

Take me away
anyway, that's overwith
don't care, I don't care which way
Trust me I say-
I wont crash
I will never trust
Done with everything, Die For nothing

I'M DONE WITH YOU!

Take me away
anyway, that's overwith
don't care, I don't care which way
Trust me I say-
I wont crash
I will never trust
Done with everything, Die For nothing
 
I was listening to Towards Dead End (Demo version) for the past few days and decided to try and figure out the lyrics...

Towards Dead End (Demo)
No flickering light at the end of the path
? adventures of the past

Fear... Prevail... Insanity... Obey!

You're falling away, from the self-decay
No matter where I stand, I'm alone
I know I'm ?, falling underground (<-- maybe »on the ground«?)
I'll go now, excuse me
(whispering something here)

I'm walking towards dead end, I'm walking all alone
Being two steps behind insanity
Walking to the reaper's scythe, reaping for your blood
Soon will be the time I have to go...

No flickering light at the end of the path
Confront repressions of the past
YAW!

Kill me, hurt me, fuck me, rape me, won't hate me!

No matter what I say, I don't care ? debris
No matter where I stand, I'm alone
I know I'm ?, falling underground (<-- maybe »on the ground«?)
I'll go now, excuse me
(go with me)

I'm walking towards dead end, I'm walking all alone
(no lyrics here)
Walking to the ???, reaping for your blood
Soon will be the time I have to go...


The stuff in red is what I couldn't figure out and most of the stuff probably isn't that correct (english is not my first language), I tried my best. If anyone feels like he could fix the lyrics (maybe Crawler64, he's good at that), please do so!
For this, I used the record demo version of the song and three live audio bootlegs of this song, I can upload them if anyone wants to try :).
Any comments welcome too!

Hey guys, here is my transcription, I think is pretty well but if anyone could hear the incomplete parts please post it!

No flickering light at the end of the path
Confront repressions of the past

Fear... Prevail... Insanity... Obey!

You're fading away, from the self-decay
No matter where I stand, I'm alone
I know I'm feeling, oh falling on the ground
I'll go now, excuse me I'm right (?) <----(I'm not sure)
(whispering something here)

I'm walking towards dead end, I'm walking all alone
Being two steps behind ? reaping me
Walking to the reaper's scythe, reaping for your blood
Soon will be the time I have to go...

No flickering light at the end of the path
Confront repressions of the past
YAW!

Kill me, hurt me, fuck me, rape me, won't hate me!

No matter what I say, I don't care being free
No matter where I stand, I'm alone
I know I'm fading, falling on the ground
I'll go now, excuse me ?
(oh come with me)

I'm walking towards dead end, I'm walking all alone
Walking to the devil path, reaping for your blood
Soon will be the time I have to go...

I don't know, I kinda like the chorus. Sure it's all bullshit but anyways. COB should start making vocals art again like on Hatebreeder. It's weird how that album has both the best and the worst vocals of COB. FTR vocals were still ok and they were technically similar to HCDR, but Alexi's sound changed to worse during HCDR, also the style changed and there's been less effort.
 
what I really don't like on recent COB vocals is that Alexi tries to chew the words and it doesn't sound good at all. I kinda mean he tries to blend 10 words in 1 second! on the other hand when I listen to ETID and I see how enraged he is when he say the words I kinda think why he could not keep the same sort of singing?
