My True Love Lyrics

The lights begin at the burn of the day. Empty words at my life, my way. For those who turn with their shame I pay. Did we all grow up without a damn thing to say? Right here, right now. My law, my vow. Right here, right now. My law, my vow. Try but they never will taint my true love. My revenge, who I am, Straight Edge. My true love. All the words, all the fools turn your back on this, well fuck you. I am, I am what I am, and it's for real. Do what, do what I do because this is how I feel. Don't care, don't care if I'm alone or by myself. Live my, live my life for me and for no one else. Try but they will never taint my true love.

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.
