Recover Lyrics

I'll try to now
recover
what made me whole
recover the way it used to be.
what pleases you / makes you who you are
it rapes you / name your price
it feels like this war
could use you
so strong in will
I know this is how it has to be.
what pleases you / makes you who you are
it rapes you / name your price
I almost feel warm
in this moment
in that picture of home
remember the way it used to be
what pleases you / makes you who you are
it rapes you / name your price
need one more chance.

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.

"i'll try to now...recover the way it used to be...need one more chance" lyrically reminiscent of the closing line on off axis (colour). these words hold a great deal of sentimental value to me.
