Fire Skates the Water Lyrics

This is the time of blind revelry their eyes all reflecting obscenity I snake between dense carcass seas only to find I had no leave Will this be my fight? To teach men of their rights? Fire skates the water illusion thine religion Fire skates the water never trust the second hand {Laughing now with painful echo someone lays drunk beside your bedfellow women crying soft in the night painted faces lie in smeared tears} {Waves too dark to focus my light oceans now fires, my beach crystalline ash scanning the sunset for shots of our past I race to the light sinking time} This is the time of blind revelry their hearts all beating obscenity I snake between dense visual fields only to know their is little real Fire skates the water illusion thine religion Fire skates the water never trust the second hand

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.
