Angels Don't Kill Lyrics

I hear the footsteps crawling by,
Watching myself slowly die.
Sharp pain is impaling through my heart,
Slowly tearing me apart.

One minute you're an angel fallen from grace,
Next, the fist that I hate.
Pick me up from the gutter with a gentle kiss,
Then rips out my heart to show me how black it is!

No!
Yet again...
It feels so cold,
Yet I won’t turn back,
I'll die alone!

(Guitar Solo)

I hear the footsteps walking by,
Watching myself slowly die.
Sharpening pain leading through my heart,
Slowly tearing me apart.

(Guitar Solo)
(Guitar-Keyboard Duo)

When you appear as an angel
Look at me now, losing my way.
Could you ever kill the pain in my heart
Even though they say angels don't kill?

No!
Yet again...
It feels so cold,
Yet I won’t turn back,
I’ll die alone!

First of all the real name of the song is "Angels don't kill" and second i'm wondering why no one has commented on this song this is definitely one of their best songs.

See, I have boticed something children of Bodom's lyrics vary between the beat of the song. Most song's will be fast pace. This usually mean's Violence well in C.O.B's case anyway.

I love them.

But IMO(In my opinion) This song is rather depressing Redering to the lyrics - No!

Yet again... It feels so cold, Yet I won�t turn back, I'll die alone!

Depressing in my veiw.

I've always wandered why I love this song so much, but there's just something about it, that sounds so damn awesome, and that it so "slow"... It's just amazing!

Can anyone explain, why it rocks this much?

this song is definately one of COBs best even though its at a far slower pace than normal. IMO you can really hear the skill in the vocals in this song

i dont think the lyrics are paticularly important really, but i do enjoy the 3 part harmonies used in some sections of the song, they sound incredible

Haha. I hate when people put the wrong names to songs on this site.

But it's a great song.

incase you people wanted to know, the actual name "children of bodom" came from the killings at lake bodom, 5 kids were murdered and tossed into the lake, and how convenient...5 members in the band...just a little tidbit for you guys to play on cyah

it was 4 teenagers not 5, and 3 died and 1 survived. survivier Nils Gustafsson also claimed that he saw detah him self, C.O.B's mascot ROY is jokefully named after him. Nils was charged with murdering his friends in 2005. but was found not guilty on all charges.

their old stuff (red light in my eyes) is better

I thought the story of the bodom killings was the 3 friends that went camping, and then someone entered there tent stabbing 2 of the kids dead and the other seriously injured?? ah well, awesome as song. i think it means the pain of being alone, perhaps being walked out on.
