Red Light In My Eyes - Part Two Lyrics
Pulling the last cry, I was alive (alive!)
While I'm down in my hatred, weird, right (right!)
Your god has set you on fire, in the day you're dark your way
When we reached this final dusk
then bring me fire and insanity
The jet-black eyes are showing butterflies,
they dance in the fire insane, so
[Chorus:]
Fire: dance with me
Fire: come with me
Fire: your fire
Of the everlasting flame, did burn me;
The one we are all off often struggling down, down, down, down
And when you hear me forth to the everlast,
hear me used to bear dreams cast in a silent near
Fire: you're killing me
Fire: a thorn, sweet, so rare
We'll praise the Lord to begin it
Until the others will fall
But, victims are we all
We will at last destroy human gods
and within us the fire is burning
The dream lives forth and we're standing strong to fight
and the everlasting fire is burning
[Chorus:]
Fire: come with me
Fire: my god is with me
Fire: together (forever)
While I'm down in my hatred, weird, right (right!)
Your god has set you on fire, in the day you're dark your way
then bring me fire and insanity
The jet-black eyes are showing butterflies,
they dance in the fire insane, so
Fire: dance with me
Fire: come with me
Fire: your fire
The one we are all off often struggling down, down, down, down
And when you hear me forth to the everlast,
hear me used to bear dreams cast in a silent near
Fire: a thorn, sweet, so rare
We'll praise the Lord to begin it
But, victims are we all
and within us the fire is burning
The dream lives forth and we're standing strong to fight
and the everlasting fire is burning
Fire: come with me
Fire: my god is with me
Fire: together (forever)

I LOVE THIS SONG! probably my favorite song right now!! I used to think they were crappy deathmetal, but this sounds more like emo or hardcore (like Avenged Sevenfold)
HOW-YOU-DARE????!!!!!!!! :OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
HOW-YOU-DARE????!!!!!!!! :OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
emo or hardcore??!!!
AVENGED SEVENFOLD??!?!?!
dont you even dare compare children of bodom to them...
...yay!!
B12, let me explain why Children of Bodom are neither EMO nor HARDCORE.
Main elements in hardcore(Metalcore) include heavy vocals in the sense of a more shout-like mannor (as apposed to Bodom, who are more grunt-style vocals.) Also, in a typical Hardcore based band, you find fast steady and repetitive drum beats, with a dominant base (however it could be said that the drums have more dominance over the bass.) But the tune (or guitar) tends to play short high pitched riffs in little bursts. This is completely different to Bodom, who are a more Power Metal/Melodius Death Metal band, elemenants include more synthetic riffs, classical devices and the clever use of keyboards and guitar to create a fast paced and everychanging sound.
Finally, emo music comes from a hardcore-punk origin, and although if you tried very hard you could argue that the lyrics (or perhaps rather certain lines) could be considered emo most likely you would fail because there is a major difference between "death related lyrics" and "self-harm/emotional slander"
Moving on,
CoBs lyrics are emotional or "emo". Honestly who gives a fuck, it doesn't mean they're an emo band. Queen, Maiden and Wintersun all have emotional lyrics, but their music still kills posers from 200 yards away. Less classifying and more meanings imo.
Maybe it's about how insane the Bodom killer was? Just a punt in the dark here :s
Am I the only one here who liked part 1 better?
tbh, red light in my eyes is played differently than most of their songs, its weird.
