sweet child Lyrics

sweet child spoil your secret to us. your little secret turned into hell. dark river wells up from the eye. a pink skin with blue clouds. a heart devoured by pain, devoured by shame, devoured by hate. try to sleep and forget the nightmare, dream of a childhood that could have been. sorrow sorry, source of tears. paternal love should never be carnal. obsessive relationship destroying life. can't you see what you're doing, can't you hear the cries.

as stones fall

to every pain there is a cure

shatter view

a 2 min 54 sec exploration into the deepest depths of a mind

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
