Withstand Lyrics

The peaceful calm you bring.
Laugh, live, everything.
Hear me pray at night,
cause I'm living not by sight.
And I care for you,
imagining touching you.
Tell me where to start,
and I'll open up my heart.
It's true..

When we stand together,
you teach to face the weather.
I'm holding day tonight,
cause I'm touching not by sight.
And I care for you,
imagining touching you.
Tell me where to start,
and I'll open up my heart.
It's true..

Bathe me with your words,
sing the song of birds.
Bathe me with your eyes,
tear the chains from inside.

Break the chains from inside.
From my heart, from my eyes.

Break the chains from inside.
From my heart, from my eyes.

Break the chains from inside.
From my heart, from my eyes.

Break the chains from inside.
From my heart, from my eyes.

And I care for you,
imagining touching you.
Tell me where to start,
and I'll open up my heart.

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 dunno if LSF is christian but I guess I can get whatever I want outta this song but I think it's about relying on God and stuff and just turning to him and how he wants to be with God... that's what I get out of this song, it's an awesome song none the less
