100% correct lyrics from slowed down version. It's pretty much a copy paste mixture of 2 of the posted already versions but with corrections in the first verse and a few more added in Ands, Ohs and Yeahs that I definitely noticed were missing although I still could have missed a few out here and there.

Read the words that are written in their face
Why believe them? I believe them!

It's a tragedy to see
A crooked man in defeat
But all the top must go
Cause I'm fired and safe with rage

It's a shame for they, lost their head
A careless man who could wind up dead
You wear your sin like it's some kind of prize
Too many lies, too many lies
Oh, oh, these words are true, and I'll make you believe
Yeah, ya' fight for air and struggle just to breathe
And you wear your cowardice well
And I will see you ride it straight to Hell "Echoed Hell"

It's written in your face, the shadows of my eyes
When the devil comes to call you "echoed you", it breaks your hurting ties.

The land will break and the seas will rise.
The wind will rage as it burns the sky.
All you beliefs will be broken and torn.
On your final day,
When I'll end it all

Oh, oh...these words are true, and I'll make you believe
Yeah, your time is done and now it's time to bleed
And you wear your cowardice well
And I will see you ride it straight to Hell (Yeah!)
(Some noise) And I will see you ride it straight to Hell...

Oh, oh...these words are true, and I'll make you believe (Yeah)
Oh, your time is done and now it's time to bleed (Oh, yeah!)
And you wear your cowardice well
And I will see you ride it straight to Hell
These words are true, and I'll make you believe
(Yes sir) And your time is done and now it's time to bleed
Ohhh, you wear your cowardice well
And I will see you ride it straight to Helllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll! "Echoed Ell"

As you can see, I changed the parts that I am near to certainty on.
I really think that he says "plead" and not "bleed".
But other than that, I agree with everything else.

its really hard to distinguish, but i agree with okuabasi, i too think he says "plead" not "bleed"

but i'm not 100 % sure on that though

"Plead" makes more sense in the context of the lyrics, too.

It's a shame for fame, lobster head!

What kind of sick joke is that!?

It's a shame for fame, lobster head!
When I chop you, you will wind up dead.

OK, listening to the part we have that's clear....I think the first line might be "It's a shameful thing, you've lost your head!", not "It's a shame for they lost their head!" Otherwise, I think this is pretty spot on.

Haven't listened to far into it for lyrics so far, but I can say that I always hear "written in 'me face" instead of "your" or "their" or whatever. Makes more sense when you think about the title.

The McD

That's why I put that originally, and I genuinly think he says 'my' it just sounds different because of his accent

I'm glad Sean didn't really say LOBSTER HEAD in the song!

He definitely says "Read the words that are written in me face" -- In Irish dialect, "my" is said like "me."

That'd be fun.

Read the words that are written in me face
Why believe them, why believe them?
